what is neutral ground resistance relay? how it is helpful in protecting system?..

Answer / ranjan prasad

Normally NGR is being connected with the neutral of
transformers or Generators to limit the the fault current.
This NGR basically gives the out put in terms of voltage
during the fault condition (like Earth Fault). To sens the
voltage during fault condition, isolation transformer is
connected across NGR for voltage feed back. This v f/b goes
to the relay to operate in case of earth fault depending
upon the setting done at relay.

Answer / aamod tripathi

NEUTRAL GROUND RESISTANCE RELAY IS A RELAY WHICH WILL
OPERATE UNDER AN EARTH FAULT. AND WILL GET ACTIVATED IN
CASE OF AN EARTH FAULT ONLY TO ACTIVATE THE BREAKER IN
ORDER TO TRIP THE CIRCUIT.

Answer / angela tong

NGR is neutral ground resistance which is inserted between
neutral and ground to operate during ground fault happens.
It could prevent generator or transformer from overvoltage
or arc flash grounding transient overvoltage and clear the
fault up.

at work we have a 3 phase motor but on testing one phase isnt getting a reading. it runs 24 hours a day all week. stops and starts well no noise or heating. the phase isnt down to earth.is it just a bad meter reading or not? phases one and three came up with a resistance reading of 0.4 but phase 2 couldnt get anything shows up as open circuit.
