Ground Fault Protection Detection and Locating Ground Faults

This webinar will focus on locating ground faults in ungrounded DC battery systems. Various standards require action when the impedance between any battery polarity and ground falls below a specified limit. In the case of nuclearfueled plants, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) requires audits and appropriate action when this impedance is deemed unsafe. Other facilities come under the guidelines of the National Electric Code, NFPA, IEEE Standards, and OSHA requirements for operation of DC battery systems in an ungrounded environment.
