Ground fault relays sense ground faults in the circuit and trigger a circuit breaker to trip off
There should be no reason to install two ground wires in the same conduit. Code requires that only a single path should be required if it is to carry a fault current. This ground wire should be single and continuous from the device back to the distribution panel. It is the fault current that is carried on the ground wire that trips the breaker or fault protection device. Don't confuse grounding wires with bonding wires.
The three types are Line to ground faults line to line fault double line to ground fault three phase line to ground fault
Ground fault interupter.
Earthing is always required. It is necessary so that a fault or overvoltage, such as caused by a lightning strike, may be conducted to earth (ground), either dissipating the energy and/or tripping the protective device.
