Name different types of fault and which instrument is used
to measures earth,short,open cicuit fault?

Answer Posted / barkha jha

Above answer is very correct
i want to add some value
for short circuit protection we use fuse as primary
protection & overload load relay for backup protection
for earth fault- we check phase to ground insulation
resistance,in case of earth fault its value comes to zero
For open circuit - check the continuity of supply

Is This Answer Correct ?    1 Yes 0 No
