Neutral-Grounding-Resistor Monitoring
SE-325 SERiES (PGM-8325)
Neutral-Grounding-Resistor Monitor
Description
The SE-325 Neutral-Grounding-Resistor Monitor is used on
resistance-grounded systems up to 25 kV to monitor the
integrity of the neutral-to-ground path and to detect ground
faults. It measures current and voltage in a transformer or
generator neutral-to-ground connection and continuity of the
neutral-grounding resistor (NGR). The SE-325 coordinates these
three measurements to detect a loose connection, corrosion,
ground fault, or NGR failure, and provides one alarm or trip
output contact.
