Hi,
One thing is bugging me. I can't work out how a 3 phase RCD works.
A single phase is simple, opposing currents in an electromagnet.
If the phases are unbalanced then it induces a current and therefore a magnetic field.
In a three phase system, the phases are not in balance, so how does it work.
I've been trying to get my head around this for a while and have given up.
Google has not helped, there are squillions of descriptions for a single phase, and the only description for a 3 phase is kind of funny (see wikipedia).
So anyone out here know?
