The basics of MV switching equipment for protecting electrical installations
When it comes to breaking the magnetizing current in the case of no-load transformers, one must first bear in mind that there are no type tests for this operation, first… Read more

Guidelines to properly designed substation grounding system
Before the design of the grounding system begins, soil resistivity measurements need to be taken at the substation. Stations with uniform resistivity throughout the entire area are rarely found. Thus,… Read more

Handbook for application of neutral earthing resistors (NERs) at the substation
There are two main approaches generally adopted when applying impedance earthing techniques: one NER per transformer unit and one NER per substation serving one or more transformer unit(s). For one… Read more
