Summary
Residual voltage (neutral displacement voltage, polarizing voltage) for earth-fault relays can be obtained from a voltage transformer between neutral and ground, for instance at a power transformer neutral.
1
Ground-fault protection is performed by voltage- and current-based detection systems.
2
Residual voltage on a ground wire can be caused by a faulty ground connection or an internal fault in the dryer or the wiring itself.
3
Residually connected ground relays are widely used to protect medium-voltage systems and measure the actual ground current by CTs.

Summary
This thread discusses the phenomenon of residual voltage on a ground wire, which can be caused by a faulty ground connection or an internal fault in the dryer or the wiring itself. It is suggested that the earth connection should be properly made, as the capacitive reactive current of all cables to outlets returns through that one earth-neutral link. It is also suggested that the earth connection should be tested on completion of the installation or rewiring process.

Summary
Grounding Standards and Codes: All electrical designs or construction must adhere to applicable standards and codes. The following are some of the items that relate to grounding and bonding of electrical systems and ground fault protection requirements: 1. Article 250: Grounding and Bonding 1.1. Article 250.4: General Requirements for Grounding and Bonding. 1.2. Article 250.20: ...
Grounding System Types: The term grounded or grounding is often loosely used in the industry. Grounding, per the 2017 NEC, is the connection to ground or to a conductive body that extends the ground connection. Grounding includes both equipment and systems. Equipment grounding refers to the connection together of the noncurrent carrying conductive parts of equipment and t...
How Is Ground Fault Protection Performed?: The type of ground fault protection employed and how it is measured are mostly determined by the type of system grounding employed, but are generally limited to voltage- and current-based detection systems. Knowledge of sequence networks — especially the zero-sequence network — is vital to understanding why a certain detection system is or is not i...
Ground Fault Coordination: Ground-fault overcurrent protectionin circuit breakers generally takes the form of a single pickup with a definite time delay band, making selective coordination of ground-fault circuit breakers in some ways much easier than the selective coordination of phase-fault protection. It should be noted that many relays allow for the use of more advanced ...

Summary
A residually connected ground relay is widely used to protect medium-voltage systems . The actual ground current is measured by CTs that are interconnected in such a way that the ground relay responds to a current proportional to the ground-fault current.
