Ground Fault Sensor

Ground Fault Sensors ensure safety in three-phase systems by detecting small current leaks that are caused by an imbalance in the current between phases.

A ground fault sensor, commonly referred to as a zero-sequence current transformer, detects ground faults by measuring the vector sum of currents in all the phases and neutral conductors. Any imbalance produces a detectable zero-sequence current which is indicative of a ground fault.

These CTs are typically installed around the neutral conductor of a three-phase system or around all three phase conductors (plus the neutral, if applicable).
