That is, when there is no ground fault in the load circuit and the power is being supplied normally, the virtual ground voltage is set to 0 volts and the voltage distribution is symmetrical to + and -, as shown in the straight line a mode in FIG. Now, if a ground fault occurs in the middle of load 3, that is, between resistors R 1 and R 2 in Figure 3, a ground fault voltage will occur as in mode b, and the voltage distribution diagram will change. A ground fault voltage of −VE 2 occurs. As a result, the voltage characteristics in which the virtual ground point is 0 volts are distorted, and the voltage characteristics are changed to those in which the ground fault position is 0 volts.

As explained in the principle diagram above, the ground fault voltage and power supply voltage detected by the power supply voltage and virtual grounding method are monitored by the monitor circuit 7 in Fig. 2, and the power supply voltage and the power supply voltage in the event of a ground fault are monitored by The voltage is connected with a straight line, and the point where this straight line extension intersects with the 0 line is determined as the ground fault point. To be more detailed,
In the example of FIG. 3, the detected virtual ground voltage VE is negative. The reason is that a ground fault has occurred on the positive electrode side (b or c) from the midpoint of the load.

Therefore, find a straight line connecting the voltage point (R o , -E) and (O, VE) due to the negative power supply detection voltage,
Find the intersection point with the horizontal axis on the extension line. This intersection becomes the ground fault load position. In FIG. 4, R 2 is determined as the ground fault position in b mode, and R 3 is determined as the ground fault position in c mode.

On the other hand, if the ground fault occurs on the negative side of the load midpoint, VE>O, so draw a straight line connecting the voltage points (R 1 , +E) and (O, VE). The intersection of the extended line with the horizontal axis is the ground fault load position.

The conduction of this thyristor grounds the negative circuit, and the output pulse signal A controls the thyristor 2 on the power supply side to become non-conductive, and further controls the input circuit breaker 1 to open.

In the above embodiment, the case of complete grounding is described, and when the impedance is in a completely grounded state, the impedance is about several kΩ, and the ground fault point can be detected reliably, but incomplete grounding, that is, a case where the impedance is large, is also possible. The high impedance in the case of incomplete grounding is extremely high, several tens of kΩ, but this may be due to an accident such as the control system's magnetic coil being temporarily immersed in pure water, and the impedance characteristics indicate that the impedance is extremely high. Difficult to detect position. However, it is not particularly necessary to detect a ground fault in such a case where the impedance becomes high, and there is no problem in continuing to perform power transmission control.

Since the lines are connected by straight lines and the ground fault point is detected from the point where this straight line extension intersects with the 0 volt line, the ground fault point can be found extremely easily and with high precision.
