<strong>Ground</strong> <strong>Fault</strong> Location for Ungrounded Systems<br />

BENDER‘s complete ground fault location<br />

system helps increase the reliability of<br />

your system, reduce costs, <strong>and</strong> create predictive<br />

maintenance by locating ground<br />

faults quickly <strong>and</strong> easily. The EDS series<br />

extends the capabilities of the IRDH575<br />

ground detector to not only know that<br />

there is a problem, but to find it as well.<br />

EDS series location modules assist in<br />

automating the process of finding faults<br />

by connecting to subfeeders or loads<br />

<strong>and</strong> providing notification when a fault<br />

has been located. Remote indicators also<br />

work in conjunction with this system to<br />

notify nurse <strong>and</strong> technical stations quickly<br />

when a problem has occured. Remote<br />

communication solutions allow personnel<br />

in main stations to know when a problem<br />

has occured in real-time.<br />

Advantages of ground fault location with the EDS series<br />

Improved economic<br />

efficiency<br />

n Time <strong>and</strong> costs for maintenance<br />

are re duced<br />

n Weak points in the installation<br />

are recognized<br />

Insulation fault location with communication via FTC470<br />

Optimized maintenance<br />

n <strong>Ground</strong> fault location<br />

without disconnecting<br />

the electrical installation<br />

n Selective fault location by<br />

fast <strong>and</strong> precise localization<br />

of the faulty subcircuit<br />

n Centralized indication<br />

<strong>and</strong> operation with LCD<br />

display<br />

n Reduced maintenance<br />

costs<br />

Increased operating<br />

reliability<br />

n Electrical installations<br />

are kept at a high level of<br />

availability<br />

n Interruptions to systems<br />

on a single fault condition<br />

are avoided<br />

n More comfort for passengers<br />

<strong>and</strong> crew<br />

Flexible <strong>and</strong> configurable<br />

solutions<br />

n Cost-effective construction<br />

with modular system<br />

components<br />

n Current transformers are<br />

available in different sizes<br />

<strong>and</strong> shapes (round, rectangular<br />

<strong>and</strong> split core)
