Figure 160: Effective high-resistance generator grounding via a distribution
transformer
Another alternative is shown in figure 161 (High-resistance grounding via a grounded
wye-broken delta transformer). In this case the transformer must withstand the large
secondary current caused by primary ground fault. The resistor typically has to be
divided as shown in figure 161 to limit the voltage to the injection equipment in case of
ground fault at the generator terminal. This voltage is often in the range 400 – 500 V.
As the open delta connection gives three times the zero sequence phase voltage this
gives too high voltage at the injection point if the resistance is not divided as shown in
the figure 161 . By dividing the resistor in two parts it shall be ensured that maximum
voltage imposed back on injection equipment is equal to or less than 240V.
