Tutorial 1.

Ql.
a. Draw neat sketches for TT, TN-S and TN-C-S Earthing systems
and the faul-t current in a single-phase TT earthing
arrangement for a line to ground fault. Explain the operation
of Residual Current Circuit. Breaker (RCCB) . Explain why we
have to use a RCCB with the TT system and ari Over-current
device can be. used with TN-C-S system for earth fault
protection.

b. There is a three- phase motor load of 400V, 5kW with 0. B power

factor connected in a system having the TN-C earthing
arranqement. The load is supplied through a transformer
having an impedance of 0.01 Ohms/phase and the Ioad is
connected to the system by a 30m long having an impedance of
0.025 ohms/m. Neutral line has the same impedance as the phase
I ine

Draw the earthing arrangement indicating fault

current flow for a line to ground fault.
2. Calculate the load current and select a rating and
type of an MCB.
3. Calculate the fault current at the load and explain
how earth fault protection is given by the MCB
selected.
