Why ZERO GROUND HFES® Is the PERMANENT Solution

The conventional wisdom and standard practice of grounding electrical circuits to physical earth for SAFETY (in accordance with the NEC), was initiated over 100 years ago. Over the past few decades, technological developments including Variable Frequency Drives and power devices utilizing IGBT’s have been introduced to the market. These technological developments (VFD’s, UPS’s, SERVOS and Computer Controlled systems) typically generate high frequency ground currents, which when grounded to physical earth can cause issues affecting safety, motors and sensitive electrical/electronic equipment.

Why HFES is the PERMANENT solution:

HFES provides the continuous high frequency low impedance path these currents prefer, which reduces high frequency ground currents to zero

No active components (as it is a passive wiring system)

No frequency dependent components (like filters)

No routinely replaceable components (like brushes)

No distance limitations with HFES (cable assembly runs can be in excess of 500 FT.)

Increases System MTBF*

Reduces unplanned downtime

Tested, proven and patented

ZERO GROUND's new paradigm now allows grounding technology to catch up to equipment technology.

*M	MTBF
	Mean time between failures. An average time between machinery breakdowns. If the MTBF decreases, root cause analysis must be carried out to bring the MTBF # to a high, meaning long times between failures. PM, TQM, JIT, better controls and the ZERO GROUND “System Solution” are all tools to make MTBF higher.
