    Stray voltage problems with a medium voltage backbone.

    Peebee, Most of the new single phase transformers (50-75 Kva) padmounts the neutral (HO) is internally bonded to the can. There is always a bond from the can to the XO. So the concentric neutral, and ground have to bonded together in that circumstance. The transformers in this situation have...

    Stray voltage problems with a medium voltage backbone.

    rbul, Each radial (phase) has a seperate #6 daisy chaining to each of the 4 transformers, all three #6's are landed on the neutral bus in the SES.

    Stray voltage problems with a medium voltage backbone.

    rbul, Thanks I know what should be done, but I am just a middle man trying to make better someone elses mess. We have discussed isolating the HO from the frame and providing a seperate ground. My question with this is what could be some of the down falls. IE if the #6 should fail, potential...

    Stray voltage problems with a medium voltage backbone.

    Dan, Each phase is a radial that daisy chains to 4 single phase 2400/120-240 transformers. The transformer set up is the same at all twelve of the transformers, 4 transformers per leg.

    Stray voltage problems with a medium voltage backbone.

    First here is some back ground. 3-phase 4160v system. Each phase feeds 4 2400/120-240 transformers. The original system had a direct burried conductor with a bare concentric neutral (no jacket). It was a 25 year old system. The system was upgraded with new 1/0 Al tape shielded cable in...
