Abstract

Detection of electric power generator stator ground fault conditions and protection of the generator due to such conditions is provided herein. In one embodiment, a generator protection element may calculate generator third harmonic voltage quantities using measurements from the generator terminals, and determine a stator ground fault condition using the calculated generator third harmonic voltage quantity. A tripping subsystem may issue a trip command based upon detection of a stator ground fault condition.
