Potentiometer method
It works with a
low
frequency
alternating
test
voltage
(1 Hz, +/- 24V)
which
is
connected via slip
rings to the main
exciter
winding
and to rotor earth
MEASURING PRINCIPLE
POTENTIOMETER METHOD
Potentiometer
method:
In this method a high
resistance is connected
across the rotor circuit
& its mid point is
grounded through a
sensitive relay. This
relay detects the earth
fault for whole circuit
except the rotor center
point.
