  • Abstract
    High impedance grounding of direct connected generators is considered in this paper, along with the detection of ground faults within the generator zone of protection. This paper discusses several possible grounding schemes, and compares the damage measure for these devices. Finally, the paper considers a method of detecting the location of ground faults that do occur on the system.
