Spanish translation:corriente de falla a tierra
Explanation:
Es la corriente que se deriva hacia potencial de tierra en caso de una falla eléctrica. El caso más significativo es la corriente de falla a tierra de ciscuitos trifásicos. No tiene relación con electricidad estática, la cual se caracteriza por altos voltajes pero muy pequeña capacidad de corriente. Una falla a tierra puede tener intensidades muy significativas.

corrientes de fallo en/a la toma a tierra


Explanation:
these are the currents sent to earth (ground) when there is a fault in the system.

I would need the context to see if the fault is in the "ground" or in the system's currents. In the first case it would be "en", and "a" in the second
