5. Earth-fault protection for neutral-compensated radial networks

5.1 Mechanisms for the appearance and disappearance of an earth fault

The principle of neutral-compensated networks is described in [D 4 811], § 4.2.3. It shows that ground faults are generally not maintained, for lack of a sufficient arc current: they are usually self-extinguishing, i.e. the fault extinguishes by itself when the fault current passes through zero: we're dealing with transient phenomena, and we can't use symmetrical components (Fortescue's...
