Abstract: A method and a device for identifying, when a fault has been detected in a power network, single-phase to ground faults by determining for each phase an auxiliary current based on the present phase current, ground fault current and ground current. If the difference between two consecutive, calculated values of the auxiliary current in some phase is smaller than a predetermined limit value, this means that there is a single ground fault in this phase.
