Symmetra MW 800 kW 3 × 400/230 V Installation - 990-1510D 25
Specifications
Low-Impedance/High-Impedance Earthing
The Symmetra
grounded system.
In a solid grounded system, the neutral power source (mains, generator, or UPS) is solidly grounded.
In the event of a down-stream ground fault, the fault current will have a path back to the source, and
the over-current device feeding the faulted part of the installation will trip and isolate the fault.
In a high-impedance grounded system, the source is grounded with an impedance (grounding
resistor). In the event of a down-stream fault, the fault current will be limited by the impedance of the
grounding resistor. The value of a high-impedance system is its ability to maintain operation with a
given system fault to ground, i.e. the over-current device will only trip at line-to-line faults or double
ground faults. For a high-impedance system to provide enhanced power system reliability and
availability, a ground-fault monitoring/alarm system is required.
®
MW is easily integrated into either a solid grounded system, or a high-impedance

22 kA is the maximum peak let-through current (including safety factor) available during clearing of
an internal fault in a 200 kW section or a Power Module. During or after a controlled fault clearing,
none of the breakers are allowed to trip on the instantaneous trip setting below the specified value.
This is also applicable to the upstream breakers, and a control of the instantaneous trip setting in this
part of the installation is required. The maximum peak let through current is applicable to utility with
prospective short-circuit currents up to 200 kA.
The instantaneous trip setting must not be derated even though the UPS system is derated

TN Systems
Characteristics
TN systems have one point connected directly to ground. All exposed conductive parts must be
connected to that point by protective conductors.
Depending on the way the neutral and protective conductors are fed, there are three types of TN
systems:
• TN-S system: a separate protective conductor is used in the system
• TN-C-S system: the neutral and protective conductors are combined to one single conductor in
a part of the system
• TN-C system: the neutral and protective conductors are combined to one single conductor in the
whole system
Reference to IEC 60364-4-41 413.1.3
All exposed conductive parts of the installation must be connected to the earthed point of the power
system by protective conductors which must be earthed at or near to each relevant transformer or
generator.
Exposed conductive parts that are accessible at the same time must be connected to the same earthing
system, either individually, in groups or collectively.
Normally the earthed point of the power system is the neutral point. If a neutral point is not available
or accessible, a phase conductor must be earthed. The phase conductor must not serve as a PEN
conductor.
In fixed installations a single conductor may serve both as a protective conductor and a neutral
conductor (PEN conductor).
Reference to IEC 60364-5-54 546.2.3
If from any point in the installation the neutral and protective functions are provided by separate
conductors, it is inadmissible to connect these conductors to each other from that point. At the point
of separation, separate terminals or bars must be provided for the protective and neutral conductors.
The PEN conductor must be connected to the terminal or bar intended for the protective conductor.
If there are other effective earth connections, the protective conductors must be connected to such
points when it is possible. It may be necessary to earth at additional points to ensure that the
potentials of protective conductors remain as close as possible to that of earth in case of a fault.

Appendix: TN Systems
Additional requirements for generating sets (IEC 60364-5-55 551.4.2)
To be used when the generating set provides a switched alternative to the public supply.
Protection by automatic disconnection of supply must not rely on the connection to the earthed points
of the public supply system when the generator is operating as a switched alternative to a TN system.
A suitable earth electrode must be provided.
Protective devices in TN systems
The following protective devices are recognized in TN systems:
• Overcurrent protective devices
• Residual current protective devices (not to be used in TN-C systems)
When a residual current protective device is used in a TN-C-S system, a PEN conductor must not be
used on the load side. The connection of the protective conductor to the PEN conductor must be made
on the source side of the residual current protective device (see below illustration):

Appendix: TN Systems
The characteristics of protective devices and the circuit impedances shall be such that, if a fault of
negligible impedance occurs anywhere in the installation between a phase conductor and a protective
conductor or exposed conductive part, automatic disconnection of the supply will occur within 5
seconds (valid for distribution circuits), the following condition fulfilling this requirement:

If a fault occurs close to the UPS (before the power distribution) while the UPS system is in Battery
Operation and Bypass is unavailable, the available power is unable to activate the protective device.
In that situation the Inverter will shut down in five seconds (IEC 60364-4-41 413.1.3.5 norm). If a
residual current protective device is used, this device will disconnect the supply.

TT Systems
Characteristics
TT systems have one point connected directly to ground and all exposed conductive parts of the
installation must be connected to an earth electrode. This earth electrode is independent of the power
system earthed point.
Reference to IEC 60364-4-41 413.1.4
All exposed conductive parts that are protected collectively by the same protective device must be
connected to a common earth electrode together with the protective conductors. In installations where
several protective devices are utilized in series, the requirement applies separately to all exposed
conductive parts protected by each device.
The neutral point or, if a neutral point does not exist, a phase conductor of each generator station or
transformer station must be earthed.
Protective devices in TT systems
The following protective devices are recognized in TT systems:
• Overcurrent protective devices

IT Systems
Characteristics
In IT systems the installation is insulated from earth or connected to earth through a sufficiently high
impedance. Exposed conductive parts are earthed individually, in groups, or collectively.
Reference to IEC 60364-4-41 413.1.5
In IT systems the installation must be insulated from earth or connected to earth through a sufficiently
high impedance. This connection must be made either at the neutral point of the system or at an
artificial neutral point. The latter may be connected directly to earth if the resulting zero-sequence
impedance is sufficiently high. In installations where no neutral point exists, a phase conductor can
be connected to earth through an impedance. In case of a single fault to an exposed conductive part or
to earth, the fault current will be low and disconnection will not be imperative.
Exposed conductive parts must be earthed individually, in groups or collectively and the condition
RAId× 50V≤
must be fulfilled.
In the condition:

In systems where an IT system is used for continuity of supply, an insulation monitoring device must
be provided to indicate the occurrence of a first fault from a live part to the exposed conductive parts
or to the earth. It is recommended to eliminate a first fault as soon as possible.
Depending on whether all exposed conductive parts are interconnected by a protective conductor
(collectively earthed) or are earthed in groups or individually, after a first fault, the disconnection
conditions of the supply for a second fault must be as follows:
a. In installations where the exposed conductive parts are earthed in groups or individually, the
protection conditions for TT systems apply (see 413.1.4.1)
b. In installations where the exposed conductive parts interconnected by a protective conductor
collectively earthed, the conditions for TN systems apply
