I have connected 04nos. earthings to a transformer through
04nos. earthing pits seperately. 02nos. earthings are
connected to T/F body, and 02nos. earthings are connected to
T/F neutral.T/F capacity is 2000KVA, 11KV/415V. But after
completing of 02 years successful operation ,we are
facing following problems-
1. CT/PT occured blast one time
2. HT cable box occured blast two times
3. One body earthing strip and one neutral earthing strip of
transformer are overlapping at some places. Whenever these
two strips are pressed at overlapped points, they made spark.
What is the reason of spark?
Please explain the reason & rectification of above problems
Answer Posted / k.bhaskar
I think your neutral earth pits resistance is not
good,ensure each earth pit resistance with out grid.The
reason for sparking may be body earth is good and some
potential is there in the neutral path.
Second ensure transformer core channel to earth connection
(inside).Measure the winding resistance and unbalance load
distribution may also cause developing voltage in Neutral.

How can i get my certificate of competency as an electrical supervisor? I have complicated my B.Tech from Uttarakhand technical university this year (2012).
If any HVDC line is going with positive & negative(the negative usually have return path of current with earthing electrode). Now the question is if this HVDC earthed electrode which is using as return path and earthed any nearby 400kv or 220kv AC substation equipments. which will be the impact of this on AC substation & its equipment, how severe may be this and what should be the minimum distance require between HVDC earthed electrode and AC substation equipments? It's really an high engineering level question...Dare to answer and increase your knowledge.
