Abstract :
In recent years, a large number of electric utilities
have been implementing fuseless split-wye grounded capacitor
banks in lieu of the traditional externally fused bank. This
change in philosophy has forced many protection engineers to
research new methods of calculating the quantities needed to
apply unbalance protection. This paper presents a novel method of
calculating the unbalance current produced by fuseless capacitor
unit failures as well as some general background information
regarding fuseless split-wye grounded capacitor bank technology
and unbalanced protection.
