Ground Fault Protection & System Grounding, Part 2

Schneider Electric continues its educational video series discussing Ground Fault Protection and System Grounding for Data Centers. Part 2 of this series focuses on the basic principles behind system grounding for data center power distribution systems in both 3-phase 4-wire solidly grounded systems and the previously popular 480V 3-phase 3-wire ungrounded delta configurations. This video also discusses ways to avoid phased arcing ground faults and transient overvoltage conditions that can damage a data center power system.
