    Earthing transformers, also known as neutral couplers or grounding transformers, are used to create an artificial neutral point in a three-phase system to provide a return path for earth current protection. They connect the three-phase electrical network to an earthing connection, such as through an arc-suppression coil. Key design parameters are the rated current and fault time duration. BTB Plaza offers a range of oil immersed and dry-type earthing transformers that comply with IEC standards and can be customized to meet specific customer requirements.

    Earthing Transformers
    A return path for earth current is needed to protect a
    system against earth fault currents. Earthing transformers,
    sometimes also called neutral couplers or grounding
    transformers, are used to create an artificial
    neutral point in a three phase system, which
    provides possibility for neutral earthing.

    The primary terminals (1U-1V-1W) of the earth-


    ing transformer are connected to the three-phase
    electrical network and the earthing connection
    is for instance made from neutral terminal (1N)
    through an arc-suppression coil. The neutral point
    (N) of the earthing transformer is energized with
    phase voltage in case of earth fault in the electrical
    network.

    The rated current and the fault time duration are key
    design parameters for the earthing transformer when used
    together with an arc-suppression coil.
    General Standard Design

    Our earthing transformers are naturally cooled and of her-


    metically sealed design with corrugated tank. The insulating
    liquid is inhibited mineral oil. Standard surface treatment
    Earthing Transformers

    according to C3 (ISO 12944).

    The transformers can be installed both in- and outdoors


    and they are designed to operate in an environment with
    ambient temperature between -40°C and +40°C.

    The transformers are easy to install thanks to plug-in bush-


    ings and auxiliary wiring box for connection of signal cables.
    For personal safety are the low voltage bushings of auxiliary
    winding additionally equipped with protective covers.

    The transformers are equipped with a top oil thermometer


    including alarm and trip contacts. For additional safety is
    the tank equipped with a pressure relief device.

    Internal Electrical Design

    Our earthing transformers are commonly made with one


    Earthing transformer with auxiliary
    winding being inter-star connected or also known as Zig- winding ZNyn-connected
    Zag connection (ZN). The zero sequence impedance of such
    a winding is normally quite low, but can be increased if the
    purpose is to limit the earth fault current flowing through
    the transformer.

    Our design is flexible and we are able to design according to


    specific requirements on for instance zero sequence imped-
    ance or short circuit impedance if required.

    Alternatively can we make the earthing transformers as two


    winding design with star/delta-connection.

    Optional Features
