z
normal polarity( Normal Condition);
z reverse polarity( Normal Condition),
z normal polarity with open neutral(Single Fault Condition);
z reverse polarity with open neutral(Single Fault Condition).
z normal polarity with open earth(Single Fault Condition);
z reverse polarity with open earth(Single Fault Condition).
