Consider a 3-phase system with an earth neutral system. Let a single line to ground fault occur on the red phase as shown in the fig below. It is clear from this figure that:
The figure shows that the equivalent circuit for single line to ground fault from which fault current may be calculated is as given in the figure. It is clear that the fault current is obtained by connecting the phase sequence impedances in series across an imaginary generator of voltage
. This is a wonderful part of the method of symmetrical and makes the analysis easy and interesting . In fact this, method permits to bring any unsymmetrical fault into a simple circuit of interconnection of sequence impedances appropriate to the fault condition prevailing. The assumption made in arriving at experiment is that the fault impedance is zero. However, if the fault impedance is Ze, then expression for the fault current becomes
It may be noted here that if the neutral is not grounded, then zero sequence impedance will be infinite and the fault current is zero. This is expected because now no path exists for the flow of fault current.
The sequence voltages at the fault for R-phase are:




Single Line to Ground Fault Current
First of all, expression for fault current
will be derived. Let
be the positive, negative and zero sequence impedances of the generator respectively. Consider the closed loop NREN, As the sequence currents produce voltage drops due to their respective sequence impedances only, we have,



Explanation of experiment for Single Line to Ground Fault

The figure shows that the equivalent circuit for single line to ground fault from which fault current may be calculated is as given in the figure. It is clear that the fault current is obtained by connecting the phase sequence impedances in series across an imaginary generator of voltage


It may be noted here that if the neutral is not grounded, then zero sequence impedance will be infinite and the fault current is zero. This is expected because now no path exists for the flow of fault current.
Phase Voltages at fault
Now let us calcualte the phase voltages at fault (i.e., voltage between each line and fault). Since the generated e.m.f system is of positive sequence only, the sequence components of e.m.f. in R-phase are:

The sequence voltages at the fault for R-phase are:

It can be readily seen that this is expressed because R-Phase is shorted to ground. The phase voltages at fault are :

For Single line to ground fault (R – Phase)

The assumption made in arriving at experiment is that the fault impedance is zero. However, if the fault impedance is Ze, then expression for the fault current becomes. PEGACLSA74V1-A dumps
