Introduction
Pacific Crest Grounding transformers are used to provide a ground path to either an ungrounded or a
delta connected system and are used...
1. Provide a relatively low impedance path to ground, thereby maintaining the system neutral at or near
ground potential.
2. Limit the magnitude of transient over voltages when re-striking ground faults occur.
3. Provide a source of ground fault current during line to ground faults.
4. Permit the connection of secondary loads if desired.
All ratings are designed in accordance with applicable ANSI, NEMA and IEEE standards.
Ratings
• Primary Voltage - all voltages through 46 kV - 250 kV BIL
• Frequency - 60Hz
Standard Features
• Secondary spade connectors when required
• Rugged steel plate tank reinforced with steel channel selections for strength and rigidity
• Undercoated base
Standard Tests
Each unit is subjected to the following tests:
• Resistance
• Ratio
• Polarity
• Phase relation
• Core loss
• Exciting current
• Impedance
• Load loss
Optional Features
• Five-legged core for wye-wye connections
• 50 cycles
• Lightning arrestors
• Bay-o-net fuses
• Weak links
• Zigzag designs
