High-Resistance Grounded Power-System Equivalent Circuit Damage at the Line–Ground Fault Location—Part II

This paper provides the electrical equivalent circuits of high-resistance grounded (HRG) power systems other than the delta-wye-connected utility power supply transformer included in Part I of this paper. This paper also provides the HRG of a medium-voltage generator for connection to an industrial power system and to a utility power system, and this paper discusses a line-ground fault with fault resistance. Three-line diagrams of ungrounded power systems are also included to illustrate the HRG application and its effect on the ground fault current during the line-ground fault. The damage at the fault location is based on the assumption that the fault remains a line-ground fault until it is cleared by appropriate ground fault protection relays. The fault resistance and the fault current that have an effect on the damage at the fault location are included. This paper provides guidance to update the current edition of the IEEE STD. 142, with respect to HRG systems.
