first, you can check your elcb setting..if ur elcb was set too low, ur equipment will be very sensitive.. small leakage smay contribute to tripping....second, you can check ur polarity of zero CT or CBCT....make sure polarity of those CT is correct.

An earth fault that requires immediate remedial attention, because the ELCB is trying to save life.
