    Grounded neutral and high-impedance grounded neutral alternating 

current systems must have a suitably sensitive ground detection system 

which indicates current in the ground connection, is able to withstand 

the maximum available fault current without damage, and provides

included to compare indications under fault conditions with those under 

normal conditions.
