    Neutral Grounding Resistors - To Use or Not to Use?

    The generators are configured 12.47 kV WYE with no phase to neutral loads. The neutrals will be tied to ground therefore the resistors should have an impact on a line to neutral faults only at the generator which technically would be a line to ground fault. With that said, wouldn't the NGRs...

    Neutral Grounding Resistors - To Use or Not to Use?

    If I understand you correctly, you stated that providing NGRs between the star point and ground of my 12.47 kV generators is not such a good idea. I'm confused? I understand your logic but this contradicts (at least I think it does) just about everything I've read about NGRs. I was under the...

    Neutral Grounding Resistors - To Use or Not to Use?

    I'm in the process of expanding the electrical distribution system of an existing Healthcare facility. The expansion will consist of a new building that will house Medium Voltage (12.47 kV) switchgear, parallel connected generators (2 new and 1 future), and utility paralleling switchgear. The...
