The basic formulas for analytical determination of the earthing system resistance are given by the European standard EN 50522:2010 [1] in its annex J. As these formulas are rather vague about how to determine the earthing system resistance for more complicated shapes of earthing systems consisting of more basic earthing electrodes (e.g. strip, rod, ring), this formulas are cited in the Czech Republic's...
A connection between a phase conductor and the ground in MV networks is called earth fault. The fault current in this case does not depend on the point of the fault, but only on the total capacity (size) of a network. Distribution system operator (DSO) sometimes needs to operate the large network which means operating of the network with big capacitive current (in Czech Republic more than 800A). This...
The paper deals with the description and analysis of the method of the additional earthing of the affected phase used for the elimination of the fault current during an earth fault in a compensated network. The efficiency of this method is strongly influenced by the fault location and resistance and, in some cases, its application can lead to deteriorating the situation at the point of the fault and...
