AVS-MEKA Mobile Earth Fault Compensation System

An earth fault in a power supply network is usually caused by external influences on overhead lines and cables. In order to be able to continue to guarantee the power supply in the event of such a fault, the resonant star point grounding (RESPE) system is selected, primarily in the high and medium voltage network, which is also known as a compensated network.
The mobile earth fault compensation system can be used to compensate for an unwanted earth fault in the affected network area and thus maintain the supply until the fault is actually rectified.
