How would we calculate the no of earthing pits required
for motor /panel
Answer Posted / babloo
the no.of earth pits is usually calculated considering the
fault current, for suppose if the short ckt occurs b/w the
2 phases the fault current will be 3times to the normal
current. For example A 55KW motor carrying the current of
80A during normal running , when the short ckt occurs the
fault current has to dissipate through the earth, so the
earth must be around 25 X 3mm strip.

in the directional overcurrent and earthfault protection,normally we are setting the angle 45 deg lead for phase fault overcurrent and -45 deg lead for earthfault fro forward direction.but both the fault are operating on the same angle region only.why?how the relay will response?
