Supervisory system for impedance-earthed power systems

Abstract

A device for continuous supervision of the attenuation (d), dissymmetry (k) and mismatch (v) system parameters in impedance earthed power systems. The parameters are calculated from the circle diagram uEN=f(v), i.e., the relative neutral point voltage as a function of the mismatch. The circle diagram is in turn defined by two measuring points for uEN which are derived by connection or disconnection of a reactance complement between system neutral and earth. The invention improves known devices for control of the condition of impedance-earthed power systems. Then the continuous supervision of the mentioned power parameters enables a better detecting of high-resistive earth connections. The invention can be implemented in any computer system capable of providing the necessary measurement, control and calculating functions.
