PRODUCTS (Neutral Grounding Resistor)
The common solution is applied in MS's NGR products. It is used when the neutral of the supply transformer is available (DELTA/WYE) and its own impedance is not enough to limit the fault current.
Experience has shown that this is the most efficient and economical solution. The advantage of this solution becomes even greater if Ni-Cr steel resistors are used instead of cast iron or liquid resistors.
STANDARD
The existing standards specific for NGR are the IEE - 32 standard. For NGR made from stainless steelm, the allowed temparature rise for 10,30 or 60 sec 760 Celc, 610 Celc for extended time rating and 385 Celc for continous rating. Harmonics filters are built from L/C/R components, they are used to eliminate the harmonics which cause disturbances and energy losses, RESISTORS are used to damp the filter, it is an importance component. They must be able to dissipate the energy pulse when the filter is Switch ON or during overload.
List of product in MS Resistances
Harmonic Filters are used to absorb harmonic currents in order to limit the distortion transmitted to the network. Get more information on filter circuits here. Damping resistors can be included in the circuit to adjust the quality factor of the filter.
Load Banks simulate an electric load.
They are used in a variety of applications, including:
When starting, an electrical motor has a huge current demand. Inserting a resistor in the circuit (on stator side for squirrel cage motors and on rotor side for ring type motors) will help reduce current appeal, control torque level and pilot starting phase duration.
Pre-insertion Resistors are used to limit transients during circuit energization. They are characterized by a high resistance value and a high thermal mass which allows for a high amount of energy to be absorbed.
When braking or stopping a vessel using electrical propulsion, the kinetic energy needs to be dissipated. The simplest way is to dissipate this energy into a resistor.
