Circuit breakers that combine the functions of a gfci with overcurrent protection respond to both types of fault.
3 phase earth leakage circuit breaker schematic.
For these conditions over current protection such as a fuse or circuit breaker must be provided.
An earth leakage circuit breaker elcb is a safety device used in electrical installations with high earth impedance to prevent shock.

Three phase residual current circuit breaker or current elcb.
Forty years ago the first current eclbs were introduced and about sixty years ago the first voltage eclb was introduced.
Generally the current sensing devices termed as rccb and voltage detecting devices named as earth leakage circuit breaker elcb.

From the ground to each phase i have 105 volts and from phase to phase 200 volts fed from the secondary side of the transformer also it is a 60 amp circuit.
When this difference crosses a predetermined value the current in the third secondary winding of the core becomes sufficiently high to actuate the electromagnetic relay attached to it.
Injury may still occur in some cases for example if a human falls after receiving a shock or if the person touches both conductors at the same time which an rcd won t.
The faulty earth leakage circuit breaker keeps tripping when the motor just start to rotate.
A residual current device rcd residual current circuit breaker rccb or ground fault circuit interrupter gfci is a device that quickly breaks an electrical circuit to prevent serious harm from an ongoing electric shock.
I have a 3 phase control cabinet for a machine in an industrial factory.
This relay causes tripping of the associated circuit breaker to disconnect the power supply to the equipment under protection.
In particular a gfci alone will not detect overload conditions phase to neutral short circuits or phase to phase short circuits.
It detects small stray voltages on the metal enclosures of electrical equipment and interrupts the circuit if a dangerous voltage is detected.
I have 3 hot legs and a ground are there any way to hook earth leakage circuit breaker to protect this machine.
The 3 phase synchronous motor is connected by drive then main controller and a distribution board.
