Features
Enclosure
The NGR Series – US comes pre-installed in a
ventilated NEMA 3R galvanized steel enclosure
and components are pre-wired to terminals for
ease of installation. Back view shown on left.
ER Series Sensing Resistor
Use with the SE-325 or the SE-330 to continuously monitor
the continuity of a neutral-grounding resistor and eliminate
hazardous voltage levels at the relay.
ꢁꢀ
ER-600VC is designed for use on systems up
to 600 V for indoor applications. Available in
optional moisture-proof enclosure (shown on
left) for outdoor applications.
ꢁꢀ
ER-5KV for use on systems up to 4160 V for
indoor applications.
ꢁꢀ
ER-5WP is designed for use on systems up
to 4160 V and comes with weather-protected
terminals for outdoor installations.
Description
High-resistance grounding prevents many of the problems
that are associated with ungrounded and solidly grounded
electrical distribution and utilization systems. High-resistance
grounding can limit point-of-fault damage, eliminate transient
overvoltages, reduce the arc-flash hazards, limit voltage
exposure to personnel, and provide adequate tripping levels
for selective current-based ground-fault detection and
coordination.
Earth-Fault Current Transformer
Used with the SE-325 or the SE-330 to measure ac current
flowing through the NGR for use with the continuity
monitoring circuit and to detect ground faults.

ELCT5-31 used with SE-330 for 5 A
and 10 A NGRs.
The Littelfuse Neutral Grounding Resistor System is a
neutral grounding resistor (NGR), current transformer, and
sensing resistor installed in a NEMA 3R enclosure used to
high-resistance ground transformers and generators. The
NGR system is designed for use with Littelfuse Neutral
Grounding Resistor Monitors for complete system grounding
and grounding protection.
SE-CS10-2.5 used with SE-330 for 10 A
and 15 A NGRs.
CT200 used with the SE-325 for all
applications.
The NGR series – US systems are designed for use in US
applications and all other parts of the world, not including
Canada. For applications in Canada, please use the NGR
series – Canada.
5SHT-101-E (not shown) used with SE-330 for
25 A NGRs.
Benefits
Applications
ꢁꢀ
Eliminate phase-to-ground arc-flash incidents
High-resistance grounding is applied on transformers and
generators where safety and continuity of service are
important. A faulted feeder may remain in operation until it
is safe to repair the fault, where allowed by the local
electrical code.

Can provide continuity of service during a ground fault
Includes current transformer and ER series sensing
resistor for use with Littelfuse monitoring relay and for
ease of installation.
