Popis: There are some problems existing in the traditional grounding mode of the distribution network. To solve them, this paper proposes a flexible grounding method for neutral point. This paper analyzes the advantages and the disadvantages of single-phase ground faults occurring at different neutral grounding points and summarizes the characteristics of several existing grounding arc elimination technologies for distribution networks. Depending on the actual data of a 10-kV substation, the ATP-EMTP was used to build a 10-kV distribution network model, and an arc model based on arc length control was used for single-phase ground fault simulation. According to the simulation results, it was known that the overhead line network of arc suppression coils was compared. Permanent ground faults occur in pure cable networks which are grounded by small resistances. Flexible grounding systems have significant benefits in suppressing the inrush currents at fault points when an intermittent arc single-phase-to-ground fault occurs, the flexible grounding system causes intermittent arcing. The voltage is clearly inhibited. The flexible grounding method has certain reference value for improving the reliability of distribution network power supply and providing the safe operation of the system.
