Earth fault in the rotor Stator R E

⇒

C E

in case of an earth fault, only small currents flow due to the galvanical isolation

Problem: Double earth faults and interturn faults as a consequence of an earth fault cause: • magnetical unbalance (unbalanced forces; violent vibration) • high currents at the fault location

⇒ Destruction of the Rotor (Generator) Task: Detection an earth fault already when it starts to build up
