Equipment protection, capacitors
High voltage will deteriorate the dielectric and the insulation. Two step residual
overvoltage protection (ROV2PTOV, 59N) has to be connected to a neutral or open
delta winding. The setting must be above the highest occurring "normal" residual
voltage and below the highest acceptable residual voltage for the capacitor.
Power supply quality
The setting must be above the highest occurring "normal" residual voltage and below
the highest acceptable residual voltage, due to regulation, good practice or other
agreements.
High impedance grounded systems
In high impedance grounded systems, ground faults cause a neutral voltage in the
feeding transformer neutral. Two step residual overvoltage protection ROV2PTOV
(59N) is used to trip the transformer, as a backup protection for the feeder ground fault
protection, and as a backup for the transformer primary ground fault protection. The
setting must be above the highest occurring "normal" residual voltage, and below the
lowest occurring residual voltage during the faults under consideration. A metallic single-
phase ground fault causes a transformer neutral to reach a voltage equal to the nominal
phase-to-ground voltage.
The voltage transformers measuring the phase-to-ground voltages measure zero
voltage in the faulty phase. The two healthy phases will measure full phase-to-phase
voltage, as the faulty phase will be connected to ground. The residual overvoltage will
be three times the phase-to-ground voltage. See figure
215.
