NGR? What is NGR?

Answer Posted / vishal essar

th e NGR is Neutral gorunding resistor connected to the
Neutral of the star side of the transformer. It si so
connected to limit the fault current getting reflected beoz
of Phase to gnd fault on the Delta side of the Transformer
and also Gnd fault on the same side of the transformer.
Such transformers are for specific loads
like...Motors...specially higher rating motors. The mototr
staring current is very high and a fault at this point can
definnitely destroy the trafo. Hence a NGR is rpovided to
limit the fault current. NGR is a Box having resistor and
Inductors in series parallel connection.

Given a collection of points P in the plane, a 1-set is a point in P that can be separated from the rest by a line; i.e. the point lies on one side of the line while the others lie on the other side. The number of 1-sets of P is denoted by n1(P). The maximum value of n1(P) over all configurations P of 19 points in the plane is 18
