why use generator Earthing/Graunding...

Answer / r.p.saini ,cfcl

For protection of generator(Protection of stator and rotor
winding during short circuit or any other electrical fault)
as well as for human sfety aspects generator is always
earthed/grounded by two earthings.

why use generator Earthing/Graunding...

Answer / kishore

generator is a highly investment equipment which should be
protected from the faults conditions and sudden changes in
the load and increase in the voltage abruptly when earthing
is given if forms a closed loop the currents take grounded
direction

why use generator Earthing/Graunding...

Answer / ruthie

Ideally, the neutral point of a 3 phase star connected
generator is zero. As a means of protection of the
generator (stator and rotor windings)the neutral point is
grounded in order that inbalance of voltage between the
phases due to faulty conditions will be sent to ground.This
is to avoid breakdown of stator or rotor windings
insulation, or even severe burn of windings.

For polarity test on a 11/3.3kV 2.5MVA delta-star Unit Auxiliary transformer,415V 3-phase supply was applied at the HV. Connection between Aa was made with a 2.5mm cable. As soon as power was switched on the cable caught fire and burnt. This test was then abandoned. It is noteworthy to say that a similar cable was also used in a similar transformer for the same. The cable did not burn and test was successfully completed with good result. What is wrong? Please, help me out.
