The corresponding phase on the feeder that is still connected to the load will overload above 10MW, thereby causing its circuit protective device to operate and disconnect the overload.

Apparently, the load will experince unvalance voltage which may cause the sensing device to trip.

it was like this, when the operator switched off the feeder which messed one phase, the breaker opened not completely and one pole stayed closed , that cause the ground transformer and ground resister are burnt , trip other feeder.

is what happend made such high current in the ground (more than 250A) .
