Option 1-
No good! You will increase potential ground , reducing personal security
Option 2-
Good!Add in a high resistance ground (<10A) at the generator frame.
subtransmission utilities in Brazil use 69kV supplied by source in delta grounded by zigzag grounding transformer
step down transformer are 230/69kV or 138/69kV YNd
Marmite,
below my interpretation of your post for setting relay
Siemens Transformer Relay Parametrization (extract):
270 Rated Frequency 60 Hz
271 Phase Sequence L3 L2 L1
313 Starpoint of Side 1 is Earthed
314 Transf. Winding Connection Side 1 Y (Wye)
323 Starpoint of Side 2...
Marmite:
"You would need to check the LV connections as well. If A&C are crossed on the secondary the same as they are on the primary then your transformer will act as a Yd7. If not then you are just changing the phase rotation."
LiteYear:
"crossing A & C on the primary of a Yd5 will, provided...
I had experience with circuit breaker SF6-50 Hz 230kV replacing 230kV breaker SF6-60 Hz.
The only type test that it is not tended refers to maneuvers with capacitive loads.
-Dedicated protection against wrong synchronization
Despite all the prevention measures used in synchronization circuit: synchronism check, synchroscopy, automatic synchronizer, dead-line bar alive, etc, the synchronization information wrong that occurred in Brazilian plants reached the level of...
guys,
you’re right! I wanted to summarize the introduction but I ended up writing nonsense! Forget my comment. I guess there is a thread about this logic diagram; I posted to show Shlim another protection relay.
I just wanted to introduce a protection against wrong, poor, bad synchronization in...
Once I participated in a project of 230kV outdoor substation, we change it to 345 kV outdoor substation because high altitude region. Finally we discover utility only used indoor 230 kV SF6 substation.
The priority is to discover the BIL used by utilities of high altitude region.
ERRATA
There is no protection relay specific to prevent the breaker from closing, because you have to close breaker to detect
the synchronization criteria not satisfied for good synchronization.
We have a dedicated very fast and selective protection for wrong synchronization occurred after...

I have seen induced current would be present on an adjacent de-energized line grounding by disconnecting switch that runs parallel to another line that is energized.
both lines are 345kV. Line energized with 890A loading with 35km in parallel with 50A induced current at de-energized grounding...

Assume your solar powerplant is connected to a big system.
If ground fault current of 18.16pu occurs at connection point it means that contribution current of powerplant is only 1.14pu and (18.16-1.14)=17.02pu is the contribution of the system.
1.14pu is the current contribution...
