I Introduction:
Neutral Earthing resistor systems protect power transformers and generators
from damaging fault currents. Earthing of the neutral limits the ground fault current
to a high level (typically 50 amps or more) in order to operate protective fault
clearing relays and current transformers. These devices are then able to quickly
clear the fault, usually within a few seconds. The importance of this fast response
time is that it:
· Limits damage to equipment
· Prevents additional faults from occurring
· Provides safety for personnel
· Localizes the fault
· UL Listed
· CSA approved up to 7200v
· Seismic Zone 4 Certifications and type tests also available
The limited fault current and fast response time also prevent over-heating and mechanical stress on conductors.
Please note that, like the solidly
earthed neutral system, the circuit must be shut down after the first ground fault.
Neutral Earthing Resistors are typically rated 400 amps for 10 seconds, and are
commonly found on medium and high voltage systems.
