ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

The dissertation has been prepared based on the vocational training undergone in a highly esteemed organization of Eastern region, Maithon Hydel Power Station (MHPS) is located on the river Barakar about 12.9 km above its confluence with the Damodar near the border of Dhanbad & Burdwan districts of the states of Jharkhand & West Bengal respectively. The unique feature of this is that it is located underground in the left bank of the river and is the first of its kind in India. The power station has a total generating capacity of 60 MW with 3 units of 20 MW each. MHPS is located at almost 1000 feet below the water level,and is the first of its kind, in South East Asia. I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to the authorities of MAITHON HYDEL POWER STATION and BANKURA UNNAYANI INSTITUTE OF ENGINEERING for providing me such an opportunity to undergo training in the Hydel power plant of DVC, MHPS. I would also like to thank the Engineers, highly experienced without whom such type of concept building in respect of Hydel power plant would not have been possible.

Damodar Valley Corporation

DAMODAR VALLEY CORPORATION

5

Damodar Valley Corporation is the first ever multipurpose river valley project of independent India which came into being on July 7, 1948 by an Act of the constituent Assembly ( Act no. Xiv, 1948).Having command area of 24,325 sq.kms spreading across the damodar basin , boundaries of which transcends the state of Jharkhand & West Bengal . The upper valley consists of two entirely districts ( Dhanbad & Bokaro) & eight districts partly ( Hazaribagh, Koderma, Giridih, chhatra, Palamu, Ranchi, Lohardaga & dumka) in the state of Jharkhand .The lower valley on the other hand consist of five districts partly ( Burdwan & Hoogly, Howrah,Bankura,& purulia) in the state of West Bengal.Since the beginning, DVC has given due emphasis on power generation & distribution, besides flood control and irrigation, eco conservation & socio- economic development.

Today DVC power is a vital input to core sectors including Steel plants , Railways, collieries along with State Electricity Boards of Jharkhand & West Bengal, big & medium industries within & beyond the Damodar Valley.

DVC was set up with the intent of promoting & operating the schemes which may cause social and economic uplift in the valley region. DVC has already established it existence in discharging its obligations for more than five decades in perfect harmony. The difficult but effective water management by Corporation has turned the devastating river Damodar from ‘River of Sorrow’ to ‘River of Prospects and opportunities’.Proficient management of water resources through dams ,canals & barrage, DVC facilitates irrigation as well as industrial & domestic water supply which at large benefited the region as a whole. It has also contributed significantly in conservation of soil & promotion of schemes of social integration in valley area.

MISSION & VISION

THE MISSION

6

The mission at the time of its inception was :

Flood control Promotion & operation of schemes for irrigation Water supply for industrial & domestic use Navigation & drainage Generation , Transmission & Distribution of electrical energy Promotion of a forestation and control of soil erosion in valley area Promotion of public health , agriculture, industrial, economic & general

well-being in damodar valley In keeping with industrialisation in DVC command area ,power generation , transmission & distribution gained priority for providing electricity to the core industries like steel , railways , coal & other industrial & consumers through respective State Electricity Boards . However other mandated objectives also received equal importance as part of overall responsibility and commitment of DVC. Capacity addition programme for power generation gained a new direction when ministry of power, Govt. Of India started advocating for setting up of thermal power plants at or near pit heads & transmit power rather than transporting coal and advising DVC to world towards adequate capacity addition during the Tenth and Eleventh plan in order to meet the power vision. In addition to programme of capacity addition of 1210MW in Tenth Five year plan and 6000MW in Eleventh plan , DVC has decided to rejuvenate the existing unit through comprehensive overhauling and refurbishment . Besides this , extension and augmentation of transmission network of DVC , devised with the assistance of CEA and also strengthening of existing transmission and distribution network are also under process of implementation. DVC is implementing rural electrification project in states of West Bengal & Jharkhand under “ Rajiv Gandhi Grameen vidyutikaran yojna ”

DVC’s environmental management programme consists of

Pollution control at its thermal power stations and Combating soil erosion and soil decay in order to restore and preserve the

quality of the land.

Pollution ControlPollutants in the form of ash and emissions from stack are the major sources of pollution at coal-based thermal power stations. In old units, of DVC, at Bokaro, Chandrapura and Durgapur, which were commissioned, before pollution control standards became stringent, the following measures have been taken to bring the pollutants within the limits:

Initiation / installation of ESPs with additional fields to bring down emission within limits.

Renovation of de-ashing and ash handling system. Installation of oil and grease separator. Plantation in and around plant areas, ash disposal areas and outside the

project areas.Modern units at MTPS, commissioned during 1990s, comply with latest pollution control norms, including the provision of reuse and recycling of maximum affluent to conserve land and water.DVC’s solid waste management system consists of evacuation of ash from the ash ponds at BTPS, CTPS and DTPS, transported in protective manner and dumped into abandoned open cast coal mines of CCL, BCCL and ECL respectively.

SCADA

Supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems have traditionally played a vital role by providing utilities with valuable knowledge and capabilities that are key to a primary business function – delivering power in a reliable and safe manner. A quality SCADA solution is central to effective operation of a utility's most critical and costly distribution, transmission, and generation assets. The challenging issues for SCADA systems and projects today are not the same as they were a few years ago. Today, there is much more importance placed on integration, use of new communication and network technologies, access to information by more users, and other purposes.

Today’s SCADA systems, in response to changing business needs, have added new functionalities and are aids for strategic advancements towards interactive, self healing smart grids of the future. A modern SCADA system is also a strategic investment which is a must-have for utilities of all sizes facing the challenges of the competitive market and increased levels of real time data exchange that comes with it (independent market operator, regional transmission operator, major C&I establishments, etc.). A well planned and implemented SCADA system not only helps utilities deliver power reliably and safely to their customers but also helps to lower costs and achieve higher customer satisfaction and retention. Modern SCADA systems are already contributing and playing a key role at many utilities towards achieving:

New levels in electric grid reliability Increased revenue. Proactive problem detection and resolution Higher reliability. Meeting the mandated power quality requirements Increased customer satisfaction. Real time strategic decision making cost reductions and increased revenue.

The basic components of a substation are as follows:

38

AUTO TRANSFORMERAn autotransformer (sometimes called autostep down transformer) is an electrical transformer with only one winding. The "auto" (Greek for "self") prefix refers to the single coil acting on itself and not to any kind of automatic mechanism. In an autotransformer portions of the same winding act as both the primary and secondary transformer. The winding has at least three taps where electrical connections are made. Autotransformers have the advantages of often being smaller, lighter, and cheaper than typical dual-winding transformers, but autotransformers have the disadvantage of not providing electrical isolation.

WORKING

The primary voltage is applied across two of the terminals, and the secondary voltage taken from two terminals, almost always having one terminal in common with the primary voltage. The primary and secondary circuits therefore have a number of windings turns in common. Since the volts-per-turn is the same in both windings, each develops a voltage in proportion to its number of turns. In an autotransformer part of the current flows directly from the input to the output, and only part is transferred inductively, allowing a smaller, lighter, cheaper core to be used as well as requiring only a single winding. One end of the winding is usually connected in common to both the voltage source and the electrical load. The other end of the source and load are connected to taps along the winding.

Different taps on the winding correspond to different voltages, measured from the common end. In a step-down transformer the source is usually connected across the entire winding while the load is connected by a tap across only a portion of the winding. In a step up transformer, conversely, the load is attached across the full winding while the source is connected to a tap across a portion of the winding.

POWER TRANSFORMER:

The use of power transformer in a switchyard is to change the voltage level. At the sending and usually step up transformers are used to evacuate power at transmission voltage level. On the other hand at the receiving end step down transformers are installed to match the voltage

39

to sub transmission or distribution level. In many switchyards autotransformers are used widely for interconnecting two switchyards with different voltage level (such as 132 and 220 KV)

1-Main tank 2-Radiator 3-Reservoir tank 4-Bushing 5-WTI & OTI Index 6-Breather 7-Buccholz relay

CIRCUIT BREAKER

A circuit breaker is an equipment that breaks a circuit either manually or automatically under all conditions at no load, full load or short circuit. Oil circuit breakers, vacuum circuit breakers and SF6 circuit breakers are a few types of circuit breakers.

ISOLATOR

Isolators are switches which isolate the circuit at times and thus serve the purpose of protection during off load operation.

40

CURRENT TRANSFORMER

These transformers used serve the purpose of protection and metering. Generally the same transformer can be used as a current or potential transformer depending on the type of connection with the main circuit that is series or parallel respectively. In electrical system it is necessary to

a) Read current and power factor

b) Meter power consumption.

c) Detect abnormalities and feed impulse to protective devices.

POTENTIAL TRANSFORMER

In any electrical power system it is necessary to

a) Monitor voltage and power factor,

b) Meter power consumption,

c) Feed power to control and indication circuit and

d) Detect abnormalities

(i.e. under/over voltage, direction of power flow etc) and feed impulse to protective device/alarm circuit. Standard relay and metering equipments does not permit them to be connected directly to the high voltage system.Potential transformers therefore play a key role by performing the following functions.

41

a) Electrically isolating the instruments and relays from HV side.

b) By transferring voltage from higher values to proportional standardized lower values.

CONDUCTORS

Steel cored Aluminium (A.C.S.R)

Aluminium has low tensile strength, as a result produce greater sag which prohibits their use for longer spans and makes them unsuitable for long distance transmissions. So in order to increase the tensile strength of the aluminium conductor, it is used with a core of galvanized steel wires. The combinational conductor thus obtained is called as A.C.S.R. (Aluminium Conductor Steel Reinforced)

42

The above figure shows, one steel cored conductor wire surrounded by 18 wires of aluminium. The aluminium carries bulk of current while the steel core takes a greater percentage of mechanical stress.

Produces small lag and therefore can be used for longer spans. A.C.S.R. Conductor gets deteriorated in service due to atmospheric

corrosion.

Cadmium copper

Sometimes copper alloyed with cadmium is used. When 1 or 2 percentage of cadmium is added to copper it increases the tensile strength by about 40 percentages but reduces the conductivity only by 17 percentages. Cadmium copper is expensive than copper.

Economical for a line with long spans and small crosssection.

\

43

Insulator The live equipments are mounted over the steel structures or suspended from gantries with sufficient insulation in between them. In outdoor use electrical porcelain insulators are most widely used.

Types of insulators

(a)Pin type insulators. (b)Suspension type insulators. (c)Strain type insulators. (d)Shackle insulators. (a)Pin type insulators A pin type insulator is designed to be mounted on a pin, which in turn is installed on cross-arm of the pole. The insulator on the pin and electrical conductor is placed in the groove at the top of the insulator and soft aluminium binding wire according to the material of the conductor.

Pin type insulators made of glass are generally used for low voltages. Pin type insulators made of porcelain can be used up to 90kV but are rarely

used on lines above 60kV

Suspension type insulators

In a pin type insulator its cost is increased rapidly as the working voltage is increased. Therefore pin type insulator is not economical beyond 33kV. So it is as usual practice to use suspension type insulators for voltage higher than 33kV.

A pin type insulator sits on top of the cross arm, whereas a suspension insulator hangs from the cross arm. The line conductor is attached to its

44

lower end. Few advantages of suspension type insulators over Pin type insulators are:

Usually cheaper in cost for operating voltage above 50kV. Flexibility is increased with suspension insulators. If line insulation needs to be increased, the additional insulators can be

easily added to the string. In case there is damage in any insulator, the damaged insulator can be easily replaced.

Bushing

45

A bushing is a hollow insulating liner through which a conductor maypass. Bushings appear on switchgear, transformers, circuit breakers and other high voltage equipment .The bushing is a hollow insulator, allowing a conductor to pass along its center and connect at both ends to other equipment. Bushings are often made of wet-process fired porcelain, and may be coated with semiconducting gglaze to assist in equalizing the electrical stress along the

length of the bushing. The inside of the bushing may contain paper insulation and the bushing is often filled with oil to provide additional insulation. Bushings for medium-voltage and low-voltage apparatus may be made of resins reinforced with paper. The use of polymer bushings for high voltage applications is becoming more common.

Capacitor voltage transformer

46

A capacitor voltage transformer (CVT or CCVT), is a transformer used in power systems to step down extra high voltage signals and provide a low voltage signal, for metering or operating aprotective relay. CVTs in combination with wave traps are used for filtering high-frequency communication signals from power frequency.

WAVE TRAP

Wave Traps are used at sub-stations using Power Line Carrier Communication (PLCC). PLCC is used to transmit communication and control information at a high frequency over the power lines. This reduces need for a separate infra for communication between sub-stations.The Wave Traps extract the high frequency information from the power lines and route it to the telecomm panels. They also block any surges from passing through.Wave Traps are simply resonant circuits that produce a high impedance against PLCC carrier frequencies (24kHz - 500kHz) while allowing power frequency (50Hz - 60Hz).

Pebbles flat flooring at substation

47

Two terms defined regarding floor of earthing system

Touch potential(pot b/w hand and structurals (gnd) when a person is touching a grounded body like structure in switchyard.

Step potential(pot diff b/w the feet of a person walking in the switchyard)now to minimize these potentials we put pebbles in place of flat flooring.

To reduce the magnatic field in between ground and conductor. To reduce the growth of gress. To aviod entry of animals like Rats, snakes etc To reduce water storage in the yard in the rainy season.

Lighting Arrestor

Lightning arresters are protective devices for limiting surge voltages dueto lightning strikes or equipment faults or other events, to preventdamage to equipment and disruption of service. Also called surgearresters.Lightning arresters are installed on many different pieces of equipmentsuch as power poles and towers, power transformers, circuit breakers,bus structures, and steel superstructures in substations

Substation Batteries

48

The heart of a substation is the battery bank. If this were to fail, an electric utility could expose all feeders associated with the station to a condition where they could not ever trip in a fault. Not only that, but any backup devices, such as the main breaker on the low-voltage side or the high-voltage side protection of the power transformer, would all be inoperative, leaving the transmission grid protection as the only possible backup.

In many cases, however, the transmission grid cannot perform this function because a fault on the low-voltage side of a Delta Wye transformer, especially a phase-to-ground fault, will convert to a phase-to-phase fault on the high side. This would be particularly true if the fault was out a few miles from the station. This could then cause such catastrophic consequences as burning wire down across town and eventually destroying the substation transformer. After the smoke clears, much of the substation could be heavily damaged and the power transformer could be in flames. This is not to mention the hazard it would cause to the public.

2. Central Relay and Instrument Testing Mobile (CRITM).

The above two divisions take care of commissioning and proper maintenance of the entire protection and metering system, fault analysis as well as periodical testing of all types of relays and meters including tariff meters of the entire DVC network including power houses.

TRANSFORMER OIL

Transformer oil or insulating oil is usually a highly refined mineral oil that is stable at high temperatures and has excellent electrical insulating properties. It is used

77

in oil filled transformers, some types of high voltage capacitors, fluorescent lamp ballasts, and some types of high voltage switches and circuit breakers .Its functions are to insulate, suppress corona and arcing, and to serve as a coolant.

On-site testing

Some transformer oil tests can be carried out in the field, using portable test apparatus. Other tests, such as dissolved gas, normally require a sample to be sent to a laboratory. Electronic on-line dissolved gas detectors can be connected to important or distressed transformers to continually monitor gas generation trends.To determine the insulating property of the dielectric oil, an oil sample is taken from the device under test, and its breakdown voltage is measured on-site according the following test sequence:

In the vessel, two standard-compliant test electrodes with a typical clearance of 2.5 mm are surrounded by the insulating oil.

During the test, a test voltage is applied to the electrodes. The test voltage is continuously increased up to the breakdown voltage with a constant slew rate of e.g. 2 kV/s.

Breakdown occurs in an electric arc, leading to a collapse of the test voltage.

Immediately after ignition of the arc, the test voltage is switched off automatically.

Ultra fast switch off is crucial, as the energy that is brought into the oil and is burning it during the breakdown, must be limited to keep the additional pollution by carbonisation as low as possible.

The root mean square value of the test voltage is measured at the very instant of the breakdown andis reported as the breakdown voltage.

After the test is completed, the insulating oil is stirred automatically and the test sequence isperformed repeatedly.

The resulting breakdown voltage is calculated as mean value of the individual measurements.

78

DGA or Dissolved Gas Analysis of Transformer Oil

Whenever electrical power transformer goes under abnormal thermal and electrical stresses, certain gases are produced due to decomposition of transformer insulating oil, when the fault is major, the production of decomposed gases are more and they get collected in Buchholz relay. But when abnormal thermal and electrical stresses are not significantly high the gasses due to decomposition of transformer insulating oil will get enough time to dissolve in the oil. Hence by only monitoring the Buchholz relay it is not possible to predict the condition of the total internal healthiness of electrical power transformer. That is why it becomes necessary to analyse the quantity of different gasses dissolved in transformer oil in service. From dissolved gas analysis of transformer Oil or DGA of transformer oil, one can predict the actual condition of internal health of a transformer. It is preferable to conduct the DGA test of transformer oil in routine manner to get prior information about the trend of deterioration of transformer health and life.

Actually in dissolved gas analysis of transformer oil or DGA of transformer oil test, the gases in oil are extracted from oil and analyze the quantity of gasses in a specific amount of oil. By observing percentages of different gasses present in the oil, one can predict the internal condition of transformer.Generally the gasses found in the oil in service are hydrogen (H2), methane (CH4), Ethane (C2H6), ethylene (C2H4), acetylene (C2H3), carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2), nitrogen(N2) and oxygen(O2).Generally it is found that hydrogen and methane are produced in large quantity if internal temperature of power transformer rises up to 150°C to 300°C due to abnormal thermal stresses. If temperature goes above 300°C, ethylene (C2H4) are produced in large quantity. At the

79

temperature is higher than 700°C large amount of hydrogen (H2) and ethylene (C2H4) are produced.

Losses of TransformersThe transformers are made of 2 types of materials: Iron and Copper. The core of a transformer is made of Iron whereas the winding which is wrapped over the iron core is made up of Copper.

Correspondingly there are 2 types of losses: Iron Loss and Copper Loss. Iron and Copper losses are measured by open circuit and short circuit tests.

81

TESTS OF DISTRIBUTION TRANSFORMERS

Two tests are conducted for testing transformers. These tests are known by different names as described in the table below.

Protective Relay

A relay is automatic device which senses an abnormal condition of electrical circuit and closes its contacts. These contacts in turns close and complete the circuit breaker trip coil circuit hence make the circuit breaker tripped for disconnecting the faulty portion of the electrical circuit from rest of the healthy circuit.

Types of RelaysTypes of protection relays are mainly based on their characteristic, logic, on actuating parameter and operation mechanism. Based on operation mechanism protection relay can be categorized as electromagnetic relay, static relay and mechanical relay. Actually relay is nothing but a combination of one or more open or closed contacts. These all or some specific contacts the relay change their state when actuating parameters are applied to the relay. That means open contacts become closed and closed contacts become open. In electromagnetic relay these closing and opening of relay contacts are done by electromagnetic action of a solenoid.

82

In mechanical relay these closing and opening of relay contacts are done by mechanical displacement of different gear level system.In static relay it is mainly done by semiconductor switches like thyristor. In digital relay on and off state can be referred as 1 and 0 state.

Based on Characteristic the protection relay can be categorized as-

Definite time relays Inverse time relays with definite minimum time(IDMT) Instantaneous relays. IDMT with inst. Stepped characteristic. Programmed switches. Voltage restraint over current relay.

Based on of logic the protection relay can be categorized as-Differential.

Unbalance. Neutral displacement. Directional. Restricted earth fault. Over fluxing. Distance schemes. Bus bar protection. Reverse power relays. Loss of excitation. Negative phase sequence relays etc.

Based on actuating parameter the protection relay can be categorized as-

Current relays. Voltage relays. Frequency relays. Power relays etc.

83

Based on application the protection relay can be categorized as-

Primary relay. Backup relay. Primary relay or primary protection relay is the first line of

power system protection whereas backup relay is operated only when primary relay fails to be operated during fault. Hence backup relay is slower in action than primary relay. Any relay may fail to be operated due to any of the following reasons,

The protective relay itself is defective. DC Trip voltage supply to the relay is unavailable. Trip lead from relay panel to circuit breaker is disconnected. Trip coil in the circuit breaker is disconnected or defective. Current or voltage signals from CT or PT respectively is unavailable.

As because backup relay operates only when primary relay fails, backup protection relay should not have anything common with primary protection relay.

Some examples of Mechanical Relay are- Thermal

OT trip (Oil Temperature Trip) WT trip (Winding Temperature Trip) Bearing temp trip etc.

Float type Buchholz OSR PRV Water level Controls etc.

Pressure switches. Mechanical interlocks. Pole discrepancy relay.

84

List Different Protective Relays are used for Different Power System Equipment ProtectionNow let’s have a look on which different protective relays are used in different power system equipment protection schemes.

Alarms for O.T., W.T., Buchholz (Main tank & OLTC) should be connected.

TAP CHANGER

A tap changer is a connection point selection mechanism along a power transformer winding that allows a variable number of turns to be selected in discrete steps. A transformer with a variable turns ratio is produced, enabling stepped voltage regulation of the output. The tap selection may be made via an automatic or manual tap changer mechanism.

TAP CHANGING

Off-circuit designs (NLTC or DETC)

Also called No-Load Tap Changer (NLTC), off-circuit tap changer, or De-

Energized Tap Changer (DETC).

In low power, low voltage transformers, the tap point can take the form of a

connection terminal, requiring a power lead to be disconnected by hand and

connected to the new terminal. Alternatively, the process may be assisted by

means of a rotary or slider switch.

Since the different tap points are at different voltages, the two connections can

not be made simultaneously, as this would short-circuit a number of turns in the

winding and produce excessive circulating current. Consequently, the power to

the device must be interrupted during the switchover event. Off-circuit or de-

energized tap changing (DETC) is sometimes employed in high voltage

transformer designs, although for regular use, it is only applicable to installations

89

in which the loss of supply can be tolerated. In power distribution networks,

transformers commonly include an off-circuit tap changer on the primary winding

to accommodate system variations within a narrow band around the nominal

rating. The tap changer will often be set just once, at the time of installation,

although it may be changed later during a scheduled outage to accommodate a

long-term change in the system voltage profile.

On-load designs (OLTC)

Also called on circuit tap changer or On Load Tap Changer (OLTC)

For many power transformer applications, a supply interruption during a tap

change is unacceptable, and the transformer is often fitted with a more expensive

and complex on-load tap-changing (OLTC, sometimes LTC) mechanism. On-

load tap changers may be generally classified as either mechanical,

electronically assisted, or fully electronic.
