High-impedance Ground Fault Unit Protection

2.5.2
Application Examples
The high impedance protection concept is based on measuring the voltage across the paralleled CT's to a
common high-resistive resistor.
The CTs must be of the same design and feature at least a separate core for high-impedance protection. In
particular, they must have the same transformer ratios and approximately identical knee-point voltage.
With 7SJ80, the high-impedance principle is particularly well suited for detecting ground faults in grounded
networks at transformers, generators and shunt reactors.
Figure 2-38 shows an application example for a grounded transformer winding or a grounded motor/gener-
ator. The right-hand example depicts an ungrounded transformer winding or an ungrounded motor/generator
where the grounding of the system is assumed somewhere else.
