hi there
welcome to PF

would you like to elaborate a bit please the question is a bit vague

are you dealing with DC or AC systems ? or both?
hi or low voltage ?

Dave
 
hello Dave,
I'm dealing with AC systems for now. high voltage
would like to hear from you soon

abimcdssi, I welcome you here, also! There are several processes here...detecting a fault, isolating a fault, building redundancy to protect critical loads, and, of course, determining the root cause of the fault. I think all this is under the heading of "fault analysis". So, will you please describe your issue in more detail? Say exactly what you are trying to do, please.
Bobbywhyedit: Have you read this technical paper?

Here's a company that seems to do what you are asking about:

more of balanced and unbalanced fault analysis
 
Very basic question. Consider a 3-terminal device with terminals say A,B,C. Kirchhoff Current Law (KCL) and Kirchhoff Voltage Law (KVL) establish two relationships between the 3 currents entering the terminals and the 3 terminal's voltage pairs respectively. So we have 2 equations in 6 unknowns. To proceed further we need two more (independent) equations in order to solve the circuit the 3-terminal device is connected to (basically one treats such a device as an unbalanced two-port...
suppose you have two capacitors with a 0.1 Farad value and 12 VDC rating. label these as A and B. label the terminals of each as 1 and 2. you also have a voltmeter with a 40 volt linear range for DC. you also have a 9 volt DC power supply fed by mains. you charge each capacitor to 9 volts with terminal 1 being - (negative) and terminal 2 being + (positive). you connect the voltmeter to terminal A2 and to terminal B1. does it read any voltage? can - of one capacitor discharge + of the...
