Ground fault currents are detected by a sensor responsive to differential or unbalanced currents in the supply conductors of the distribution system. The unbalanced currents are compared with the phase of the line potentials by a demodulator to detect only in-phase components and produce an output signal representing a true fault, the magnitude of which depends on the degree of current imbalance. Output signals exceeding a threshold value trip a circuit breaker to remove power from the load conductors. The combination is sensitive to ground faults of either high or low resistances, and is substantially insensitive to spurious signals which do not represent true faults.,下面是Phase-sensitive ground fault protective systems专利的具体信息内容。
