High-Impedance Ground Fault Unit Protection
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 differential
protection. In particular, they must have the same transformer ratios and approximately identical knee-point
voltage
With 7SC80, the high-impedance principle is particularly suited for detecting ground faults at transformers,
generators, motors and parallel reactors in grounded systems.
Figure 2-42 on the left shows an application example for a grounded transformer winding or a grounded
generator. The example on the right shows an ungrounded transformer winding or an ungrounded generator
where the grounding of the system is assumed to be somewhere else.
