Q

Which of the following are benefits associated with grounding the secondary of a drive isolation transformer?

I. Grounding provides superior transient and impulse immunity to the load side of the transformer.
II. Grounding reduces common-mode noise coupling from primary to secondary.
III. Grounding prevents induced ground current from transferring upstream into the primary system.
IV. Grounding will reduce the total harmonic distortion in the primary of the system.
