2.3.1 Background of measurements
Fault loop impedance includes the resistive and inductive part of the fault loop. The
main part of inductivity comes from the power transformers inductances.
The main resistance part comes from copper wiring in the loop (conductors,
transformer wiring) and earthing resistances (in TT systems).
In general the inductive part can be neglected if loop impedance > 0.4 Ω.
In applications where the measurement is carried out in close proximity to the power
transformer (< 50m) the inductivity can be of a similar value than the resistance part.
In this case it is very important to consider the impedance result because the fault loop
resistance result is lower and can lead to wrong judgement.
2.3.1.1 Fault loop, fault impedance and prospective fault current in
TN systems
In TN systems the fault loop Z
L-PE
consists of:
Z
T
– power transformer secondary impedance,
Z
L
– phase wiring from source to fault impedance,
R
PE
– PE / PEN wiring from fault to source resistance.
The fault loop impedance is the sum of impedances and resistances that forms the
fault loop.
