GFCI 3 PHASE Breaker Protecting Machine - Electrician Talk
Jun 26, 2014 · In most of those devices, they use a much simpler "Residual Current Detection" scheme in which the breaker simply looks at the 3 phases (for 3 phase only loads) or the 3 phases + Neutral if there are single phase loads, and watches for any amount of current in excess of the trip level flowing in that does not return on another phase or the Neutral.
Three Phase Swimming Pool Pumps on GFCI Breakers
Jun 19, 2014 · GFCI protection is only required for single phase 120 and 240 volt motors - as per 2014 code - there were changes that now include all of them. Three phase wouldn't be required to have GFCI protection, but certainly isn't prohibited to have the protection.
Hooking up GFCI breaker when no neutral is used.
Oct 30, 2006 · ALL GFCI's work by comparing the current flow between the "hot" wires and the neutral, assuming your breaker has a "pass through" neutral terminal or wire. A 220/240 breaker would have a second function of comparing the load between the two hot wires.
Possible 3-Phase GFCI Solution | Information by Electrical ...
Nov 24, 2015 · You have 21.67A going through each of 3 single phase loads. Each single phase load consumes 4500VA. Your entire system consumes 13500VA. The line current is 21.67 * sqrt(3) = 37.5A Since everything is symmetric that is 37.5A on each of the 3 phase lines. And as a double check, using the normal 3 phase calculation: 37.5 * 208 * sqrt(3) = 13500-Jon
