Post Glover Resistors Introduces a High-Resistance Grounding Package

Post Glover Resistors Inc. introduces the Groundskeeper(TM), a high- resistance Grounding package. Industrial plants that want to keep a close watch on the current flowing through the neutral conductor of their low voltage power system will find the Groundskeeper a handy tool. This high resistance CSA approved grounding package allows a process to continue until its completion, allowing the user to monitor his system and later clear the fault at a convenient time.

This high resistance CSA approved grounding package allows a process to continue until its completion, allowing the user to monitor his system and later clear the fault at a convenient time.

Resistor elements are wound from a special stainless steel alloy. The voltmeter and ammeter are available for both indoor and outdoor applications. Provided with an easy-to-use disconnect switch, the service engineer can conveniently take the resistor offline for system upgrades and service.

Continuously Rated Neutral Grounding Resistor is connected to the transformer or generator's wye point. Limiting the ground fault current to a safe level when a line to ground first occurs.

Ammeter: This digital meter shows the amount of current in the neutral to ground connection.

Voltmeter: This digital meter shows the voltage drop across the neutral grounding resistor, thereby showing the neutral-ground voltage.

Disconnect Switch: This three-phase switch provides a means to disconnect the neutral grounding resistor from the system. Both the neutral and 480 volt power for the metering pass through this switch. Therefore, it is possible to disconnect the entire Groundskeeper for servicing, including the neutral grounding resistors.

The Groundskeeper is provided in a rugged powder-coated enclosure properly ventilated for many years of reliable service.
