Resistance Grounded Systems (HRG/LRG)
Neutral Grounding Resistors (NGRs) are used to limit the maximum ground-fault current. Restriction of fault current lowers hazards and reduces damage done to equipment. High Resistance Grounding (HRG) systems are often used on industrial and critical power applications to maintain system uptime during a first ground fault. HRG systems are also used in tripping applications to help control touch potential on portable loads and improve personnel safety.
