  • Abstract
    Petersen coils installed on part of a 140-kv transmission system operating with the neutral ungrounde have successfully eliminated a large percentage of interruptions due to line-to-ground faults which occurred on that section. Detailed tests, presented in this paper, also have been made, and indicate many characteristics of the Petersen coil system.
