Earthing Resistors

You can find a range of earthing resistor up to 33 KV here at National Resistors. With the help of this resistor, power transformers and generators can be prevented against fault currents. When used in AC distribution network, the resistor limits the restricted earth current to a safe value. This restricted current flows from the generator or transformer star point in the event of an earth fault in the system, without crossing the specified temperature limits. The earthing resistor is connected in the middle of neutral position of a generator and earth or transformer and earth. In hazardous working conditions and changing environments, this resistor can operate efficiently and delivers reliable performance. This resistor can also resist changing voltages and temperatures. Optional Features of Earthing Resistors: Potential transformers. Stand off insulators. Hot dip galvanized enclosures. Aluminum enclosure instead of mild steel. Safety Screen for enclosures. Neutral grounding or excitation transformer. Supporting pedestal structures. Stainless steel hardware. Earth fault leakage relay. Termination kit. Cable gland.
