| - JORDSTRØM current through earthed rails Explanation: Skinnene er antakelig jordet, med en viss maksimal avtand mellom jordingspunktene. Dvs at man søker å unngå at skinnene har et potensiale i forhold til jord, pga personsikkerheten. Det er riktig at en returstrøm (eventuell feilstrøm) kan gå gjennom jord.Hvis det er et brudd i en skinne kan således skinnen få et potensiale.Det er ikke noe "earth current" -begrep på engelsk så vidt jeg vet, men man kan snakke om en "earthed wire, etc". Det betyr at en evt strøm går til jord gjennom lederen som er jordet. Derfor mitt forslag om en omskriving som angitt.Hvis feeder-systemet er 3-fase, vil jordstrømmen indikere en systemfeil. Men det er ikke angitt noen systemtype her, så dette blir en gjetning. |
