Neutral-Grounding-Resistor Monitoring
SE-325 SERIES (PGM-8325)
Neutral-Grounding-Resistor Monitor
Simplified Circuit Diagram
Description
The SE-325 Neutral-Grounding-Resistor Monitor is used on
resistance-grounded systems up to 25 kV to monitor the
integrity of the neutral-to-ground path and to detect ground
faults. It measures current and voltage in a transformer or
generator neutral-to-ground connection and continuity of the
neutral-grounding resistor (NGR). The SE-325 coordinates these
three measurements to detect a loose connection, corrosion,
ground fault, or NGR failure, and provides one alarm or trip
output contact.
Features & Benefits
FEATURES BENEFITS
Continuous NGR
monitoring
Ground-fault
Detection
Adjustable pickup
(0.5 - 4 A)
Adjustable time delay
(0.1 - 2 s)
Output contacts Form A output contact
Selectable contact
operating mode
Detects resistor failure within seconds, reduces
transient-overvoltage risk, removes risk of groundfault-detection failure
Main or backup protection to detect a ground
fault any where on the monitored system
Select greatest sensitivity without
false operation
Adjustable trip delay allows system coordination
Selectable fail-safe or non-fail-safe operating
modes allows connection to shunt or undervoltage
