Technical FAQs 4

Can a multiphase rectifier generator be used for DC output side grounding?

A multiphase rectifier generator can be used for DC output side grounding. It can be divided into four ways: positive grounding, negative grounding, constructing neutral grounding, and DC midpoint lead grounding [ 50 ].

Do you need a grounding DC power supply?

The answer is not a straightforward yes or no. This article explores the benefits and drawbacks of grounding DC power supplies. DC power supplies are a common, perhaps almost guaranteed, component of any control system, especially one containing a digital controller.

Why is rectification of grounding resistance important?

The rectification calculation of the grounding resistance value is the core of it, which can effectively limit the system fault current and voltage, makes it easy to detect faults, and the system can continue to operate when there is a single grounding fault.

What is a multiphase rectifier generator?

Multiple requests from the same IP address are counted as one view. A multiphase rectifier generator is important power generation equipment in DC power systems in transportation fields such as ships and aviation. Grounding design and grounding fault detection and positioning are key technologies for the safe operation of the power system.
