Earth fault occurs when charge flows into the Earth. isolation, unshielded wires, defective power optimizers, or an inverter internal fault can cause DC current leakage to ground (PE - protective earth). However, with the fault the other phases are operating at basically 1.73 times the normal line-to-ground voltage. (i.e. �&L. The 3rd party device should be capable of measuring AC and DC currents down to 10mA to properly detect and alarm the condition. x�bb�d`b``Ń3� ���ţ�1�a� �O� Earth resistance measurements on installations with a single earth electrode It is important to point out that the earth resistance measurement of reference is the 2-stake method. If the resistance of both ground faults is approximately equal, ground-fault monitoring devices operating on the basis of the principle of superimposed voltage measurement will not be able to detect these ground faults. NICEIC considers that the second method is the more suitable for lighting circuits.
