  • Abstract
    High-resistance grounding of electrical power systems offers many of the advantages of both solidly grounded systems and ungrounded systems, including practical suppression of transient overvoltages, practical reduction of equipment damage due to ground fault, and the ability to continue to operate a system with a ground fault present on one phase. The design, application, packaging, and field testing of high-resistance grounding systems, including a practical method of fault location, are described.
