Abstract

See full text

A method detects a high-impedance ground fault in an electrical energy supply network with a grounded neutral point. A test signal is fed via a detection device into the energy supply network, the test signal has a frequency which differs from the network frequency of the energy supply network. To enable a reliable detection, with low equipment costs, of high-impedance ground faults in energy supply networks with a grounded neutral point, a three-phase test signal is fed into the phase conductors of the energy supply network as the test signal. A measuring signal which indicates the residual voltage of the test signal is generated with the detection device. The residual voltage is compared with a threshold value using a test device of the detection device, and the presence of a high-impedance ground fault is detected if the residual voltage exceeds the threshold value.
