Earth-Fault Current Limitation
The resistor forms the neutral-to-earth connection. Its resistance, short-time current and duration are selected together to match the required earth-fault duty.

Product Overview
GP-NER-11kV connects the neutral of an 11 kV system to earth through a resistor to limit earth-fault current. The catalog configuration combines a 250 Ω ±5% stainless-steel resistor rated 25 A for 10 s, a manually operated GN19-12/400 disconnector and a protection current transformer in an IP54 outdoor cabinet. Each assembly is specified to suit the system earthing and protection requirements.
Manual Isolation And Status Contacts
The GN19-12/400 disconnector is manually operated. Its auxiliary contacts are brought to the XT2 terminal block for the external status circuit.
Key Features
Manual Disconnector
The cabinet includes a GN19-12/400 disconnector for isolation during maintenance, with the operating arrangement shown in the outline drawing.
Protection CT Interface
An LZZBJ9-10 current transformer provides a 100/5 A signal for the external protection circuit. The specified CT class is 5P10, with a 5 VA burden.
Outdoor IP54 Enclosure
The cabinet uses 2 mm cold-rolled steel plate, finished in RAL7035, with a rain canopy, front and rear doors, and ventilation openings lined with dust-proof mesh.

Installation And Connections
Foundation And Cable Entry
The cabinet measures 1000 × 1150 × 2000 mm (W × D × H). Primary, earthing and secondary cables enter from below through openings fitted with rubber rings and cable clamps. The channel-steel base has copper earthing blocks on both sides with M12 threaded holes.
Primary And Secondary Circuits
The primary schematic places the disconnector, resistor and CT in the neutral-to-earth circuit. CT secondary connections are shown at XT1, and disconnector auxiliary contacts at XT2, for connection to the external protection and status circuits.
The manual includes cabinet views, internal arrangements, the base plan and wiring diagrams. Use the supplied assembly drawings to confirm the foundation, cable openings and terminal connections.

Configuration And Ordering
System And Protection Requirements
Provide the system voltage, neutral arrangement, required earth-fault current, resistance and short-time duration. Include the CT ratio, protection class, burden and terminal requirements. Systems without an accessible neutral may require an earthing transformer as part of the earthing scheme.
Monitoring And Enclosure Options
Specify any earth-fault event recording, temperature and humidity control, or monitoring interface required. Confirm the enclosure material, protection level, installation location and cable entry arrangement with the order.
Specify Your GP-NER-11kV Cabinet
Send the system voltage, required earth-fault current, resistance and duration. Include the neutral arrangement, CT requirements and installation details for your project.
