  • Ground Lead Disconnectors on Distribution-Class Surge Arresters
    01.4TB.017 Ground Lead Disconnectors on Distribution-Class Surge Arresters July 18, 1991 Many current models of zinc oxide distribution or riser pole arresters come equipped with ground lead disconnectors. This is a device which is mounted on the ground end of the arrester and which looks about like a small hockey puck. The enclosure is black, blue or green plastic, a couple of inches in diameter and an inch or so tall. The normal failure mode of these arresters is a short circuit to ground, causing ground fault current to flow. This current will cause the arrester body to fail if it is not stopped quickly. The first function of the ground lead disconnector is to disconnect the ground lead of the surge arrester in case of an internal failure of the arrester, preventing explosive failure of the arrester body. The ground lead disconnector contains a cartridge in series with a gap. The gap is shunted by a resistor. As the current rises, the voltage across the gap increases until the gap flashes over, creating an arc which ignites the cartridge, blowing the ground lead free. The ground lead disconnector is not a fault current interrupter. The arc drawn by the ground lead as it separates from the body of the arrester may or may not go out on its own. If it does not go out, a circuit breaker, recloser or fuse must operate to extinguish the arc. The ground lead disconnector is expected to create a gap which will not reignite when power is reapplied to the circuit, but the gap which will be created is a function of the length and flexibility of the ground lead.

  • Consultation on the Implementation of Engineering Recommendation Er G77
    CONSULTATION ON THE IMPLEMENTATION OF ENGINEERING RECOMMENDATION ER G77 VOLUME I: SUMMARY REPORT ETSU S/P2/00356/REP/1 DTI/Pub URN 02/809 Contractor Halcrow Group Ltd Subcontractors SunDog Energy Ltd EA Technology Ltd I-Power Ltd Prepared by J Thornycroft M Cotterell A Collinson The work described in this report was carried out under contract as part of the DTI Sustainable Energy Programmes. The views and judgements expressed in this report are those of the contractor and do not necessarily reflect those of the DTI. First published 2002 © Crown copyright 2002 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This report presents the results of continued consultation within the Electricity Industry and PV Industry leading to the publication of Engineering Recommendation ER G77/1: ‘Connection of Single-phase Inverter Connected Photovoltaic (PV) Generating Equipment of up to 5kVA in Parallel with a Distribution Network Operators (DNOs) Distribution System ’. It also incorporates a specific piece of technical work carried out under a Subproject ETSU/S/P2/00400. The final subgroup report on that work is reproduced in Volume II. OBJECTIVES This project continues the objectives of a previous ETSU project ETSU/S/P2/00215 that set-up the ‘ER G77 Working Group’ as part of the initiative to: • Continue consultation with the DNOs principally through the ER G77 Group • Continue consultation in the PV Industry through PV-UK membership • Monitor and include experience from the implementation of ER G77 • Act as a forum for discussion of issues arising and recommended improvements to ER G77 • Provide a source of expertise and consultation on PV electrical matters for projects such as the DTI supported Domestic Field Trial • Provide a link to BSI Standards Work in the field • Define and provide a link to Subprojects investigating specific technical questions related to ER G77 The aim has been to help develop the final version of ER G77/1 that is acceptable to the PV industry and electricity supply industry.
