I have a system using a star-delta close transition with resistor and capactior starter.

During the starting stage the earth leakage is about 9.6Amp! Is pretty high isn't it? The earth leakage relay is using a differential CT to measure my 3Ph 4 Wire, that is why it can detect the earth leakage during starting. After running it is back to normal zero leakage.

Wire is fine and motor is fine.

What could have causes the leakage current?

Hello Gavin

There should not be any earth leakage with a closed transition star delta starter.
Earth leakage current would suggest that either the CT is in the wrong place, or there is a fault in the starter.

Chris, for information on the closed transitions star delta starter, look here http://www.lmphotonics.com/star_delta.htm

Best regards,
