"TNS" SYSTEM
To measure the currents deriving from faults, separate the PE wire from the active wires.

"IT" SYSTEM
To measure the fault currents, clamp the active conductors (Neutral included when distributed).
Please note that the intensity limit for the current resulting from the fault is obtained either by inserting
an impedance between a supply point (generally the Neutral supply) and Earth.
