A fault is a fracture in a large volume of rock, generally caused by tectonic activity. Faults, such as the San Andreas Fault in California, are often regions of frequent seismic activity for the same reason.

What is a difference between ground fault and earth fault?
They mean the same thing, a current to ground/earth that shouldn't exist in the circuit.

What is the difference between balanced earth fault and restricted earth fault?
There is such a thing as a three phase to earth fault, so maybe this is what you mean by a "balanced earth fault". I don't believe any earth or ground currents would flow in this case. A restricted earth fault is a typical phase to earth fault, where the zone of protection is restricted to a specific area, such as around a transformer. "Restricted" is referring to the protection method, not what is actually going on with the currents and voltages.
Will earth fault affect batteries discharging in an equipment?
If one terminal of a battery is earthed (and, by this, we normally mean a 'chassis earth'), then an earth fault within the circuit supplied by the opposite terminal will result in the battery being discharged. The rate of discharge depends on the resistance of the earth fault.
What is the mean of Fault?
A fault is a fracture or numerous fractures in the earth's crust where the two sides move past each other.

What is an earth fault relay?
An earth fault relay is a relay that is activated by a fault current that flows from the power line to the earth. Earth fault relays are found in power distribution systems.
