Locating DC Ground Faults
Abstract
Ground faults on battery operate
DC Multi feeder Distribution System are very difficult
to find without proper instrumentation and training.
Samco Engineering has design a new microprocessor control
instrument with a single purpose
“to analyze and locate even the most
difficult DC ground faults on "DC Multi feeder
Distribution System”, for the safeguard of the DC system
integrity.
The DC Ground Fault Analyzer and Locator instrument
(GFAL-A/B) make use of a very small
interrupted and synchronize DC
signal to analyze and
locate DC ground faults on multi feeder distribution system on power plants, refineries and switchyards.

Equipment and Method highlights
Ground Fault Analyzer Instrument, Model : GFAL-A
*
Create a tracing signal to locate the DC ground faults
up to the point of failure
* Functionally test the DC alarm unit operation
* Test the DC Distribution System for spike faults and AC contamination
* Help to find the value of the fault resistance from each polarity with respect to site ground.
See the User's Manual Section 8.0 – GFAL- A, Appendix B.
* Set up the basis for a ground fault predictive maintenance program
Ground Fault Tracking Instrument, Model: GFAL-B
* Will
trace and locate the DC ground
faults on DC multi-feeder distribution system,
up to the point of failure without service
interruption
* Detect and process the signal produce by the interrupter with a magnetic sensor (unique design) that wrap around the conductors.
* Never have to open a circuit or a breaker to troubleshoot a DC distribution system
* Set up the basis for a ground fault predictive maintenance program
