The requirements of distribution system owners regarding the reliability of electricity supply are getting stricter. As a result of the tightened regulations, underground cabling in distribution networks increases constantly. Cabling in turn significantly raises the earth fault current in the networks and the earth fault current generated by underground cables is approximately 40 times higher compared to overhead lines. This will lead to an increased need for earth fault current compensation.
Ensto has extensive theoretical and practical knowledge and thorough experience in providing earth fault current compensation solutions for the underground cable distribution networks.
