Reactance grounding is done to lower ground fault current amounts, often to protect generators. It's done by tying the neutral of a generator to a grounding reactor (the other side of the reactor is tied to ground).
Inductive reactance.
When stranded conductor is being used for earthing, It offers some reactance in addition to the resistance of the conductor. Since any kind of surge is of sudden in nature, and reactance opposes the change in flow of current (Property of Inductor), It might disturb the discharge rate of the surge. Hence the conductor is flat inorder to provide only the resistance
Inductive reactance does NOT have it own sign or symbol. Rather, it uses Ohms as a quantifier. But Capacitive reactance ALSO uses Ohms as a quantifier. Fortunately, 1 Ohm of Inductive reactance is cancelled by 1 Ohm of Capacitive reactance at the same frequency of measurement.
reactance relay is used for distance protection of the transmission line....
Xc(capacitive reactance) = 1/(2piFC)XL(inductive reactance) = 2piFLWhere pi=3.14etc.,F=frequency and C and L are capacitance and inductance.Please pardon lack of proper symbology.
You can use resistance or reactance grounding on generators and motors. My understanding is resistance grounding is often used to limit ground fault currents to a few amperes, while reactance grounding will limit fault current to less than the three phase fault current. If reactance grounding is used to limit fault current o very little (like resistance grounding), transient overvoltage problems can occur.
Earthed cables shall be used wherever the syem Neutral grounding Solidly. Vise versa-Un earthed cable shall be used wherever the syem Neutral grounding through NER or Reactance.
Inductive reactance, as well as capacitive reactance, is measured in ohms.
By grounding them in the earth. In a home, grounding is typically done by tying onto a large metal (usually copper) water pipe.

The reciprocal of reactance is susceptance, expressed in siemens.
The symbol for inductive reactance is XL.
for inductor, reactance XL = 2*pi* f *L, if frequency doubles then reactance increase. But for capacitor, reactance Xc = 1/(2*pi*f*C). In this case if frequency doubles the reactance decrease.
The overall reactance of the armature winding is the sum of its leakage reactance plus fictitious reactance, which is known as synchronous reactance (Xs).Xs=XL+Xarwhere XL and Xar are in Ω/phase. Therefore, Xs is in Ω/phase.The impedance of armature winding is obtained by combining its resistance and its synchronous reactance.

Because it is. Capacitive reactance is a form of resistance, along with inductive reactance. All are measured in ohms.
