What is Ground Fault Testing, Why is it Important?
Published by Carelabs (Carelabz) A ground fault is any short circuit that outcomes in an unintentional connection amid a ground and energized ungrounded phase conductor and ground. Ground faults are the most common type of fault on power distribution systems. They are due to the insulation failure or accidental grounding of an ungrounded phase conductorContinue reading “What is Ground Fault Testing, Why is it Important?”

Part 4: AC Power Distribution Systems & Standards
Published by Nikola Zlatanov* Ground Fault Protection Article 230.95 of NEC requires ground- fault protection of equipment shall be provided for solidly grounded wye electrical services of more than 150 V to ground, but not exceeding 600 V phase-to-phase for each service disconnect rated 1000 A or more. The rating of the service disconnect shallContinue reading “Part 4: AC Power Distribution Systems & Standards”
Measuring Earth Resistance
Published by E. Hering, Dresden (Germany) Earth resistance is a key parameter in determining the efficiency of earthing systems. In this article we look at the measurement of earth resistance 1 A Few Fundamentals 1.1 Earth resistance and earth impedance The efficiency of an earthing system is principally determined by its impedance ZE. As canContinue reading “Measuring Earth Resistance”
