3 wire 3 phase ungrounded systems

Former Community Member over 5 years ago

I suspect I already know the answer but are 3 phase, 230 volt, 3 wire ungrounded systems permitted in a UK installation?

I know this is common practice in some parts of the world but it's not something I've come across in the UK.

Just for clarity this would entail a delta connected secondary with 230 V between phases requiring separate earth fault detection.

I wait with abated breath.

All fixed wiring supplying various DB's some above 100Vac so 7671 doesn't apply, some at 400 other at 200 so firmly in the court of BS7671.
