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.)

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. |
