Neutral Earthing Resistors

Neutral Earthing Resistors are a key component in the earth fault protection of medium voltage electricity generation and distribution systems.

Cressall NERs limit the current that would flow through the neutral point of a transformer or generator in the event of an earth fault.

Features of all Cressall grounding resistors include:

  • Current ratings up to 8,000 Amps
  • Full compliance with ANSI-IEEE 32, Terminology and Test Procedure for Neutral Grounding Devices
  • Stainless steel resistors and enclosures as standard, IP23 to IP56. (Cable boxes up to IP65)
  • Type-tested standard designs (certificates available)

Options include:

  • Supply of resistor banks only for incorporation into customer’s own enclosures
  • Shock-tested marine designs
  • Provision for CTs, heaters, special cabling, etc.
  • Interlocked off-load by-pass isolators
  • Single or multiple vacuum contactors
  • High resistance grounding resistors (for use where regulations permit, e.g. some offshore installations)
