Pulsing High-Resistance-Grounding System
DataSheet:Download PGN-3000 Datasheet

The PGN Pulsing High-Resistance-Grounding Systems are used to ground power systems
by inserting a resistor between system neutral and ground to lower the ground-fault
current to a predetermined value.
Properly sized Resistance Grounding Systems solve two problems of ungrounded
systems—transient overvoltages and the difficulty of locating ground faults. They also
significantly reduce damage caused by ground faults on solidly grounded systems. The
current limitation eliminates the Arc-Flash Hazards associated with the first ground fault.
The hazards associated with phase-to-phase electrical faults must still be mitigated by
using current-limiting fuses and other methods. High-Resistance Grounding Systems
include all necessary components to convert to a resistance grounded system.
Options include a pulsing circuit and SE-701 Ground-Fault Monitors to provide a method
for locating ground faults.
