why neutral grounding transformer is used for generator and why it is not used for transformers?..

Answer / tanvir s.

As far as i understand Neutral Grounding Transformer are used to Ground the both transformers as well as Generators. NGT is applicable (useful) in transformers/generators with delta connection. So during line-to-earth faults, the NGT helps the zero sequence current to flow in the ground. Any unbalance in the load distribution between the three phases is passed thru the neutral, which is not available in case of delta connection. Hence the NGT.

Answer / sunil kumar sinha

Neutral grounding transformer is used to limit earthfault
currentof generator. It also provide Generator earthfault
protection, both alarm and trippingby connecting voltage
relay across the secondary winding of NGT.

generally in LT and MV motors we are using 3.5Coresx16,25,35,50 etc cable for supply.although motors is earthed at two point and having all protection.then why we are using that 1/2 core for earthing the motors.while in HT cable we are using only 3core cable for motor supply.generally lt and mv motors are delta connected and ht motors having star connection.whethere it is having any relation with winding connection( star or delta).all motors i am talking about are dol only.can anybody solve my confusion.thanks...
