"An Adaptive Grounding Scheme for Synchronous Based DG to Prevent the G" by Muhammad Yousaf, Amin Jalilian et al.
Abstract Large fault currents in a synchronous-based distributed generator (SBDG) can cause serious damage to the core and windings of the generator. This paper proposes an adaptive grounding scheme to limit the ground fault currents to a safe level. To do so, a high impedance grounding configuration is designed to operate during the grid-connected mode to minimize damage to the generator during ground faults. An electronic switching mechanism is provided to identify the islanded mode of operat...
