Risk of voltage escalation due to a single-phase fault on the ungrounded MV network of an industrial plant
In an ungrounded electrical system, successive reignitions and extinctions of a single-phase to ground fault is known to potentially generate a voltage escalation phenomenon. This is the so- called arcing ground fault whose theory has been thoroughly described in literature, even though very few practical occurrences have been experienced in existing electrical systems due to the specific and rare conditions that cause its appearance. This paper studies the risk of appearance of voltage escalation in the 10 kV auxiliary system of an industrial plant. It describes the physical principles at the origin of voltage escalation and presents a study conducted using an EMT-like program. The results show that, thanks to the presence of a permanent insulation monitor (PIM) connected to the system through voltage transformers, the successive reignitions and extinctions of single-phase faults cannot cause severe overvoltages or voltage escalation. The paper ends with some general conclusions.
