None
- 5. Multiple Choice
Which of the following is not the type of earthing :-
System Earthing
Equipment Earthing
earthing device
None
- 6. Multiple Choice
Which of the following is the purpose of System Earthing ?
Controls Voltage to ground to specified limits.
Limits voltage stress on Insulation of conductors
Provides path for flow of currents during Fault
All of the above
- 7. Multiple Choice
Which of the following are the ADVANTAGES OF EARTHED SYSTEM :-
The system earthing (solidly or through a resistance or impedance) is done to provide a return path of earth fault current, which in turn helps
To reduce the insulation requirement of phase elements of equipment connected in that voltage level & cost of the equipment/s in turn. VIZ: Earthed grade cables are less costly than unearthed grade cables.
To isolate the faulty part of the system due to earth fault by sensing earth fault current
All of the above
- 8. Multiple Choice

Treated Earth pit
Directly driven earth electrode
Deep bore earth electrode
All of the above
