1. Introduction:

1.1. About the substation:

THE SUBSTATION AT DURGAPUR HAS BEEN COMISIONED ON 9 th of MAY, 1976. It is the only

substation in Asia to have 5 isolator system bus arrangements. The most important of any substationis the grounding of the instruments, transformers etc. used in the substation. For grounding of thesubstation a metallic square or some poly shaped metal boxes are placed in the ground. Theseground the extra high voltage to the ground. As it is dangerous to us to go near the instrumentwithout proper earth. If the instruments are not ground properly they may give a huge shock toanyone who would stay near it and also it is dangerous for the costly instrument as they may getdamaged by this high voltage.

1.2. Construction Site Selection & Layout

E HV S U B STATION

EHV Sub-Station forms an important link between Transmission network and Distributionnetwork. It has a vital influence of reliability of service. Apart from ensuring efficienttransmission and Distribution of power, the sub-station configuration should be such that itenables easy maintenance of equipment and minimum interruptions in power supply. Flexibilityfor future expansion in terms of number of circuits and transformer MVA Capacity also needs tobe considered while choosing the actual configuration of the sub-station. EHV Sub-Station is

constructed as near as possible to the load center. The voltage level of power transmission isdecided on the quantum of power to be transmitted to the load center.

Generally, the relation between EHV Voltage level and the power to be transmitted is as follows:

S.NO. POWER TO BE TRANSMITTED VOLTAGE LEVEL1) Upto 150 MVA 132 KV.2) From 150 MVA to 300 MVA 220 K.V.3) 300 MVA to 1000 MVA 400 K.V.

1.3. SELECTION OF SITE

Main points to be considered while selecting the site for EHV Sub-Station are as follows:

i) The site chosen should be as near to the load center as possible.

ii) It should be easily approachable by road or rail for transportation of equipments.

iii) Land should be fairly leveled to minimize development cost.

iv) Source of water should be as near to the site as possible. This is because water isrequired for various construction activities; (especially civil works,), earthing and fordrinking purposes etc.

v) The sub-station site should be as near to the town / city but should be clear of publicplaces, aerodromes, and Military / police installations.

vi) The land should be have sufficient ground area to accommodate substation equipments,buildings, staff quarters, space for storage of material, such as store yards and store shedsetc. with roads and space for future expansion.

vii) Set back distances from various roads such as National Highways, State Highwaysshould be observed as per the regulations in force.

viii) While selecting the land for the substation preference to be given to the Govt. land overprivate land.

ix) The land should not have water logging problem.

x) The site should permit easy and safe approach to outlets for EHV lines.

1.4. Process of Land Acquisition

After the selection of site of the proposed EHV Substation and finalization of the arearequired, proceedings for acquisition of land have to be initiated. The acquisition ofland generally takes quite a long time. Forecasting and planning of substation and

selection of substation site needs to be done much in advance taking into account thenormal period of acquisition of land. The acquision of land should not in any waydisturb the commissioning of programme of sub-staion. In MSETCL a landacquisition is carried out by the concerned Civil wing. The proposal for acquisition ofland is submitted to the District Collector in case of Govt. land and to the landacquisition officer in case of private land through the PWD Authorities accompaniedby following documents:

(i) 7/12 abstracts along with the resolution of local authority.

(ii) Village map with suitable land duly marked on it.

(iii)Sales statistics around the area.

(iv)No Objection Certificate from the Forest Deptt. if applicable.

(v) The certificate in case of private agricultural land that the owner of the land does notbecome landless if his land is acquired.

(vi)These papers should be submitted after their due scrutiny. The land selected should bemarked on the village map by taking joint measurements with Revenue Authorities.

(vii) Once the proposal is submitted to land acquisition officer further legal proceedingsare completed by him, and the award is given followed by allocation of land to theutility.

Possessions of land are taken by taking joint measurements.

1.5. STORAGE OF EQUIPMENTS FOR THE SUB STATION:

All the substation equipments / materials received on site should be stored properly, either inthe outdoor yard or in the stores shade depending on the storage requirement of that particularequipment.

The material received should be properly counted and checked for any damages / breakages etc.The storage procedure for main equipment is as follows:

i) EHV C.T.s and P.T.s Normally, 132 KV C.Ts. and P.Ts are packed and transported inwooden crates vertically while those of 220 KV and 400 KV are packed in ironstructures for extra supports with cross beams to avoid lateral movement. 132 KV C.Ts.and P.Ts. should be stored vertically and those of 220 KV and 400 KV should be stored

in horizontal position. C.Ts and P.Ts. packed in wooden crates should not be stored forlonger period as the packing would may deteriorate. The wooden packages should bestored on a cement platform or on M.S. Channels to avoid faster deterioration of thewooden crates. C.Ts and P.Ts packed in iron cases stored in horizontal position shouldbe placed on stable ground. No C.Ts and P.Ts. should be unpacked in horizontal

position.ii) L.A. s. and B.P.I. These are packed in sturdy wooden case as the porcelain portion is

very fragile. Care should be taken while unpacking, handling and storage due to thisreason.

iii) Batteries, Acid, Battery charger C & R panel, A.C.D.Bs copper piping, clampconnectors, hardwares etc. should be stored indoor.

iv) Circuit breakers: The mechanism boxes of 33 KV V.C.Bs should be stored on raisedground and properly covered with tarpaulins or should be stored in door. The interrupterchambers should be stored on raised ground to avoid rain water in storage area.

main important is of protection which is firstly done by these lightening arrestors. The lighteningarrestors are grounded to the earth so that it can pull the lightening to the ground. The lighteningarrestor works with an angle of 30 to 45 making a cone.

2. C V T

A capacitor voltage transformer (CVT) is a transformer used in power systems to step-downextra high voltage signals and provide low voltage signals either for measurement or to operate aprotective relay. In its most basic form the device consists of three parts: two capacitors acrosswhich the voltage signal is split, an inductive element used to tune the device to the supplyfrequency and a transformerused to isolate and further step-down the voltage for theinstrumentation or protective relay. The device has at least four terminals, a high-voltageterminal for connection to the high voltage signal, a ground terminal and at least one set ofsecondary terminals for connection to the instrumentation or protective relay. CVTs are typicallysingle-phase devices used for measuring voltages in excess of one hundred kilovolts where the

use of voltage transformers would be uneconomical. In practice the first capacitor, C1, is oftenreplaced by a stack of capacitors connected in series. This results in a large voltage drop acrossthe stack of capacitors that replaced the first capacitor and a comparatively small voltage dropacross the second capacitor, C2, and hence the secondary terminals.

3. Wave trap

Wave trap is an instrument using for tripping of the wave. The function of this trap is that it trapsthe unwanted waves. Its function is of trapping wave. Its shape is like a drum. It is connected tothe main incoming feeder so that it can trap the waves which may be dangerous to the

instruments here in the substation.4. Current transformer

Current transformers are basically used to take the readings of the currents entering thesubstation. This transformer steps down the current from 800 amps to 1 amp. This is donebecause we have no instrument for measuring of such a large current. The main use of thistransformer is (a) distance protection; (b) backup protection; (c) measurement.

5. Lightening arrestors with earth switch

Lightening arrestors after the current transformer are used so as to protect it from lightening i.e.from high voltage entering into it. This lightening arrestor has an earth switch, which can directlyearth the lightening. The arrestor works at 30 to 45 angel of the lightening making a cone. Theearth switch can be operated manually, by pulling the switch towards ground. This also helps inbreaking the line entering the station. By doing so maintenance and repair of any instrument canb performed.

The use of this isolator is to protect the transformer and the other instrument in the line. Theisolator isolates the extra voltage to the ground and thus any extra voltage cannot enter the line.Thus an isolator is used after the bus also for protection.

11. Current transformer

Current transformers are used after the bus for measurement of the current going out through thefeeder and also for protection of the instruments.

12. Circuit breaker

The circuit breakers are used to break the circuit if any fault occurs in the circuit of the anyfeeders.

13. Lightening arrestors

The use of lightening arrestors after the bus is to protect the instrument in the station so thatlightening would not affect the instruments in the station.

14. Transformer

There are three transformers in the incoming feeders so that the three lines are step down at thesame time. In case of a 220kv or more kv line station auto transformers are used. While in caseof lower kv line such as less than 132kv line double winding transformers are used.

15. Lightening arrestors with earth switch

The lightening arrestors are used with earth switch so that lightening would not pass through theinstruments in the station.

16. Circuit breaker

The circuit breakers are used to break the circuit for any fault.

17. Current transformer

Current transformers are used to measure the current passing through the transformer. Its main

use is of protection and measurement.

18. Isolator

These are used to ground the extra voltage to the ground.

19. Bus

This bus is to carry the output stepped down voltage to the required place.

3. The line diagram of the substation:

The Durgapur 220kv/ 132kv substation,

The 220kV substation has the capacity of 220kv and can step down to 132kv using three inputlines through the incoming feeders. The input feeders are namely:DPL(I&II),BORJORA(I&II),MANKAR(I&II),BOLPUR(I&II),UKHARA(I&II),BKTPP(I&II),STPS,ASANSOL,WARIA(I&II),PARULIAAll these feeders come into the substation with 220kv.The purpose of the 220/132kV substation was to step down the 220kv to direct distribution to the

132kv substations in six different areas of the state.The substation of 220kv/132kv has six outgoing feeders, namely:DPL(I&II),BORJORA(I&II),MANKAR(I&II),BOLPUR(I&II),UKHARA(I&II),BKTPP(I&II),

STPS,ASANSOL,WARIA(I&II),PARULIA. These out going feeders are of 132kv line.The complete line diagram of the station are shown in the figure below:

4. Instruments used in the DURGAPUR, 220kV grid substation are:

Lightening arrestors:

Firstly we can see lightening arresters. These lightening arrestors can resist or ground the

lightening if falls on the incoming feeders. The lightening arrestors can work in a angle of 30degrees around them. They are mostly used for protection of the instruments used in thesubstation. As the cost of the instrument in the station are very high to protect them from highvoltage from lightening these lightening arrestors are used.

Fig. lightening arrestor.

It is a device used on electricalpower systems to protect the insulation on the system from the

damaging effect oflightning. Metal oxide varistors (MOVs) have been used for power systemprotection since the mid 1970s. The typical lightning arrester also known as surge arrester has ahigh voltage terminal and a ground terminal. When a lightning surge or switching surge travelsdown the power system to the arrester, the current from the surge is diverted around theprotected insulation in most cases to earth.

Landscape suited for purpose of explanation: (1) Represents Lord Kelvin's "reduced" area ofthe region, (2) Surface concentric with the Earth such that the quantities stored over it and underit are equal; (3) Building on a site of excessiveelectrostaticcharge density; (4) Building on a siteof low electrostatic charge density.

In telegraphy and telephony, a lightning arrester is placed where wires enter a structure,preventing damage to electronic instruments within and ensuring the safety of individuals nearthem. Lightning arresters, also called surge protectors, are devices that are connected betweeneach electrical conductor in a power and communications systems and the Earth. These provide ashort circuit to the ground that is interrupted by a non-conductor, over which lightning jumps. Itspurpose is to limit the rise in voltage when a communications or power line is struck bylightning.

The non-conducting material may consist of a semi-conducting material such as silicon carbideor zinc oxide, or a spark gap. Primitive varieties of such spark gaps are simply open to the air,but more modern varieties are filled with dry gas and have a small amount of radioactive

material to encourage the gas to ionize when the voltage across the gap reaches a specified level.Other designs of lightning arresters use a glow-discharge tube (essentially like a neon glowlamp) connected between the protected conductor and ground, or myriad voltage-activated solid-state switches called varistors orMOVs. Lightning arresters built for substation use areimpressive devices, consisting of a porcelain tube several feet long and several inches indiameter, filled with disks of zinc oxide. A safety port on the side of the device vents theoccasional internal explosion without shattering the porcelain cylinder.

Electric power system lightning protection

High-tension power lines carry a lighter conductor (sometimes called a 'pilot' or 'shield') wire

over the main power conductors. This conductor is grounded at various points along the link, orinsulated from the tower structures by small insulators that are easily jumped by lightningvoltages. The latter allows the pilot wire to be used for communications purposes, or to carrycurrent for aircraft clearance lights. Electrical substations may have a web of grounded wirescovering the whole plant.

Lightning protection system design

Considerable material is used to make up lightning protection systems, so it is prudent toconsider carefully where a rod structure will have the greatest effect. Historical understanding oflightning, from statements made by Ben Franklin, assumed that each device protected a cone of

45 degrees. This has been found to be unsatisfactory for protecting taller structures, as it ispossible for lightning to strike the side of a building. A better technique to determine the effect ofa new arrester is called the "rolling sphere technique" and was developed by Dr Tibor Horvth.To understand this requires knowledge of how lightning 'moves'. As the step leaderof a lightningbolt jumps toward the ground, it steps toward the grounded objects nearest its path. Themaximum distance that each step may travel is called the critical distance and is proportional tothe electrical current. Objects are likely to be struck if they are nearer to the leader than this

critical distance. It is standard practice to approximate the sphere's radius as 46 m near theground.

Electricity travels mostly along the path of least resistance, so an object outside the criticaldistance is unlikely to be struck by the leader if there is a grounded object solidly OR within the

critical distance. Noting this, locations that are safe from lightning can be determined byimagining a leader's potential paths as a sphere that travels from the cloud to the ground. Forlightning protection, it suffices to consider all possible spheres as they touch potential strikepoints. To determine strike points, consider a sphere rolling over the terrain. At each point, weare simulating a potential leader position. Lightning is most likely to strike where the spheretouches the ground. Points that the sphere cannot roll across and touch are safest from lightning.Lightning protectors should be placed where they will prevent the sphere from touching astructure. A weak point in most lightning diversion systems is in transporting the captureddischarge from the lightning rod to the ground, though. Lightning rods are typically installedaround the perimeter of flat roofs, or along the peaks of sloped roofs at intervals of 6.1 m or 7.6m, depending on the height of the rod. When a flat roof has dimensions greater than 15 m by 15

m, additional air terminals will be installed in the middle of the roof at intervals of 15 m or lessin a rectangular grid pattern.

Evaluations and analysis

A controversy over the assortment of operation theories dates back to the 1700s, when Franklinhimself stated that his lightning protectors protected buildings by dissipating electric charge. Helater retracted the statement, stating that the device's exact mode of operation was something of amystery at that point. Diversion is a misnomer; no modern systems are claimed to divertanything, but rather to intercept the charge that terminates on a structure and carry it to theground. The energy in a lightning strike is measured in Joules. The reason that lightning does

damage is that this energy is released in a matter of microseconds (typically 30 to 50microseconds). If the same energy could be released slowly over a period of many seconds orminutes, the current flow would be in milliamperes or a few amperes at most. This is the intentof charge dissipation.

The dissipation theory states that a lightning strike to a structure can be prevented by altering theelectrical potential between the structure and the thundercloud. This is done by transferringelectric charge (such as from the nearby Earth to the sky or vice versa). Transferring electriccharge from the Earth to the sky is done by erecting some sort of tower equipped with one ormore sharply pointed protectors upon the structure. It is noted that sharply pointed objects willindeed transfer charge to the surrounding atmosphere and that a considerable electric currentthrough the tower can be measured when thunderclouds are overhead.

Lightning strikes to a metallic structure can vary from leaving no evidence excepting perhaps asmall pit in the metal to the complete destruction of the structure. When there is no evidence,analyzing the strikes is difficult. This means that a strike on an uninstrumented structure must bevisually confirmed, and the random behavior of lightning renders such observations difficult.The research situation is improving somewhat, however. There are also inventors working onthis problem, such as through a lightning rocket. While controlled experiments may be off in the

The device has at least four terminals, a high-voltageterminal for connection to the high voltage signal, a ground terminal and at least one set ofsecondary terminals for connection to the instrumentation or protective relay. CVTs are typicallysingle-phase devices used for measuring voltages in excess of one hundred kilovolts where theuse of voltage transformers would be uneconomical. In practice the first capacitor, C1, is oftenreplaced by a stack of capacitors connected in series. This results in a large voltage drop acrossthe stack of capacitors that replaced the first capacitor and a comparatively small voltage dropacross the second capacitor, C2, and hence the secondary terminals.

Current transformer:

The instrument current transformer (CT) steps down the current of a circuit to a lower value andis used in the same types of equipment as a potential transformer. This is done by constructingthe secondary coil consisting of many turns of wire, around the primary coil, which contains onlya few turns of wire. In this manner, measurements of high values of current can be obtained. Acurrent transformer should always be short-circuited when not connected to an external load.Because the magnetic circuit of a current transformer is designed for low magnetizing currentwhen under load, this large increase in magnetizing current will build up a large flux in

the magnetic circuit and cause the transformer to act as a step-up transformer, inducingan excessively high voltage in the secondary when under no load.

These transformers are basically used to get the incoming current on the incoming feeders. Itsteps down the incoming 800 amps to 1 amps.

Rating factor:

Rating factor is a factor by which the nominal full load current of a CT can be multiplied to determine

its absolute maximum measurable primary current. Conversely, the minimum primary current a CT canaccurately measure is "light load," or 10% of the nominal current (there are, however, special CTsdesigned to measure accurately currents as small as 2% of the nominal current). The rating factor of aCT is largely dependent upon ambient temperature. Most CTs have rating factors for 35 degrees Celsiusand 55 degrees Celsius. It is important to be mindful of ambient temperatures and resultant rating factorswhen CTs are installed inside pad-mounted transformers or poorly ventilated mechanical rooms.Recently, manufacturers have been moving towards lower nominal primary currents with greater rating

factors. This is made possible by the development of more efficient ferrites and their correspondinghysteresis curves. This is a distinct advantage over previous CTs because it increases their range ofaccuracy, since the CTs are most accurate between their rated current and rating factor

Circuit breaker: using SF6 gas:

Sulphur hexafluoride (SF6) is an inert, heavy gas having good dielectric and arc extinguishingproperties. The dielectric strength of the gas increases with pressure and is more than ofdielectric strength of oil at 3 kg/cm2. SF6 is now being widely used in electrical equipment likehigh voltage metal enclosed cables; high voltage metal clad switchgear, capacitors, circuitbreakers, current transformers, bushings, etc. The gas is liquefied at certain low temperature,liquefaction temperature increases with pressure.

Sulphur hexafluoride gas is prepared by burning coarsely crushed roll sulphur in the fluorine gas,in a steel box, provided with staggered horizontal shelves, each bearing about 4 kg of sulphur.The steel box is made gas tight.

During the arcing period SF6 gas is blown axially along the arc. The gas removes the heatfrom the arc by axial convection and radial dissipation. As a result, the arc diameter reduces

during the decreasing mode of the current wave. The diameter becomes small during thecurrent zero and the arc is extinguished. Due to its electronegativity, and low arc time constant,

the SF6 gas regains its dielectric strength rapidly after the current zero, the rate of rise ofdielectric strength is very high and the time constant is very small.

Potential transformers: with BUS isolator

There are two potential transformers used in the bus connected both side of the bus. Thepotential transformer uses a bus isolator to protect itself. The main use of this transformer is tomeasure the voltage through the bus. This is done so as to get the detail information of thevoltage passing through the bus to the instrument.

In any substation themain important is of protection which is firstly done by these lightening arrestors. The lighteningarrestors are grounded to the earth so that it can pull the lightening to the ground. The lighteningarrestor works with an angle of 30 to 45 making a cone.

Auto transformer:

Transformer is static equipment which converts electrical energy from one voltage to another.As the system voltage goes up, the techniques to be used for the Design, Construction,Installation, Operation and Maintenance also become more and more critical.

If proper care is exercised in the installation, maintenance and condition monitoring of thetransformer, it can give the user trouble free service throughout the expected life of equipmentwhich of the order of 25-35 years. Hence, it is very essential that the personnel associated with

the installation, operation or maintenance of the transformer is through with the instructionsprovided by the manufacture.

It is a device that transfers electrical energy from onecircuitto another through inductivelycoupled conductors the transformer's coils. Except forair-core transformers, the conductorsare commonly wound around a single iron-rich core, or around separate but magnetically-coupled cores. A varying current in the first or "primary" winding creates a varying magneticfield in the core (or cores) of the transformer. This varying magnetic fieldinducesa varyingelectromotive force (EMF)or "voltage" in the "secondary" winding. This effect is calledmutualinduction.

If a load is connected to the secondary, an electric current will flow in the secondary windingand electrical energy will flow from the primary circuit through the transformer to the load. In anideal transformer, the induced voltage in the secondary winding (VS) is in proportion to theprimary voltage (VP), and is given by the ratio of the number of turns in the secondary to thenumber of turns in the primary as follows:

By appropriate selection of the ratio of turns, a transformer thus allows an alternating current(AC) voltage to be "stepped up" by makingNS greater thanNP, or "stepped down" by makingNS

less thanNP.

Transformers come in a range of sizes from a thumbnail-sized coupling transformer hiddeninside a stage microphone to huge units weighing hundreds of tons used to interconnect portionsof nationalpower grids. All operate with the same basic principles, although the range of designsis wide. While new technologies have eliminated the need for transformers in some electroniccircuits, transformers are still found in nearly all electronic devices designed forhousehold

Basic principles

The transformer is based on two principles: firstly, that anelectric current can produce amagnetic field (electromagnetism) and secondly that a changing magnetic field within a coil ofwire induces a voltage across the ends of the coil (electromagnetic induction). Changing thecurrent in the primary coil changes the magnetic flux that is developed. The changing magneticflux induces a voltage in the secondary coil.

An ideal transformer.

An ideal transformer is shown in the adjacent figure. Current passing through the primary coilcreates a magnetic field. The primary and secondary coils are wrapped around acore of veryhigh magnetic permeability, such as iron, so that most of the magnetic flux passes through bothprimary and secondary coils.

Induction law

The voltage induced across the secondary coil may be calculated from Faraday's law ofinduction, which states that:

where VS is the instantaneous voltage,NS is the number of turns in the secondary coil and equals the magnetic flux through one turn of the coil. If the turns of the coil are oriented

perpendicular to the magnetic field lines, the flux is the product of the magnetic field strengthBand the areaA through which it cuts. The area is constant, being equal to the cross-sectional areaof the transformer core, whereas the magnetic field varies with time according to the excitationof the primary. Since the same magnetic flux passes through both the primary and secondarycoils in an ideal transformer, the instantaneous voltage across the primary winding equals

Taking the ratio of the two equations forVS and VPgives the basic equation for stepping up orstepping down the voltage

Ideal power equation

The ideal transformer as a circuit element

If the secondary coil is attached to a load that allows current to flow, electrical power istransmitted from the primary circuit to the secondary circuit. Ideally, the transformer is perfectly

efficient; all the incoming energy is transformed from the primary circuit to the magnetic fieldand into the secondary circuit. If this condition is met, the incoming electric powermust equalthe outgoing power.

Pincoming =IPVP=Poutgoing =ISVS

giving the ideal transformer equation

Transformers are efficient so this formula is a reasonable approximation.

If the voltage is increased, then the current is decreased by the same factor. The impedance inone circuit is transformed by thesquare of the turns ratio. For example, if an impedanceZS isattached across the terminals of the secondary coil, it appears to the primary circuit to have an

impedance of . This relationship is reciprocal, so that the impedanceZP of the primary

circuit appears to the secondary to be .

Detailed operation

The simplified description above neglects several practical factors, in particular the primarycurrent required to establish a magnetic field in the core, and the contribution to the field due tocurrent in the secondary circuit.

Models of an ideal transformer typically assume a core of negligible reluctance with twowindings of zero resistance. When a voltage is applied to the primary winding, a small currentflows, driving flux around the magnetic circuit of the core. The current required to create the fluxis termed the magnetizing current; since the ideal core has been assumed to have near-zeroreluctance, the magnetizing current is negligible, although still required to create the magneticfield.

The changing magnetic field induces an electromotive force (EMF) across each winding. Sincethe ideal windings have no impedance, they have no associated voltage drop, and so the voltagesVP and VS measured at the terminals of the transformer, are equal to the corresponding EMFs.

The primary EMF, acting as it does in opposition to the primary voltage, is sometimes termed the"back EMF".This is due to Lenz's law which states that the induction of EMF would always besuch that it will oppose development of any such change in magnetic field.

The bus isolator is used to isolate the extra high voltage through the bus.


The use of the CT here is to protect the instrument and for measurement purpose.

Circuit breaker:

The circuit breaker breaks the circuit whenever there is any fault in the line.

Line isolator with earth switch (E/S):

An isolator with switch is part of an electrical circuit and is often found in industrial applications,however they are commonly fitted to domestic extractor fans when used in bathrooms in the UK.Isolator switches may be fitted with the ability for the switch topadlocksuch that inadvertentoperation is not possible . In some designs the isolator switch has the additional ability to earththe isolated circuit thereby providing additional safety. Such an arrangement would apply to

circuits which inter-connect power distribution systems where both end of the circuit need to beisolated. Major difference between isolator and circuit breakeris that isolator is an off-loaddevice, whereas circuit breaker is an on-load device.


Lightening arrestors are used to protect the instruments from lightening.

Capacitor bank:

A capacitor bank is used in the outgoing bus so that it can maintain the voltage level same in the

outgoing feeder.

Capacitor Control

is usually done to achieve as many as possible of the following goals: Reduce losses due toreactive load current, reduce kVA demand, decrease customer energy consumption, improvevoltage profile, and increase revenue. Indirectly capacitor control also results in longerequipment lifetimes because of reduced equipment stresses. Experience shows that switchedfeeder capacitors produce some of the fastest returns on equipment investment.

Sources of Energy Loss

Energy losses in transmission lines and transformers are of two kinds: resistive and reactive. Theformer are caused by resistive component of the load and cannot be avoided. The latter, comingfrom reactive component of the load, can be avoided (Fig. 1). Reactive losses come from circuitcapacitance (negative), and circuit inductance (positive). When a heavy inductive load isconnected to the power grid, a large positive reactive power component is added, therebyincreasing observed power load (Fig. 1). This increases losses due to reactive load current,

increases kVA demand, increases customer energy consumption, usually degrades voltageprofiles, and reduces revenue.

Reactive Compensation

When capacitors of appropriate size are added to the grid at appropriate locations, the abovementioned losses can be minimized by reducing the reactive power component in Fig. 1, therebyreducing the observed power demand. There are many aspects to this compensation and itseffects, depending on where capacitors get to be located, their sizes, and details of thedistribution circuit. Some are discussed below.

Energy Loss Reduction

More than one half of system energy loss is caused by the resistance of the feeders. To minimize

energy losses it is, therefore, important to locate feeder capacitors as close to the loads aspossible. Substation capacitors cannot do the job - the reactive load current has already heatedfeeder conductors downstream from the substation. Reducing reactive current at the substationcan not recover energy losses in the feeders. Another way to minimize energy losses is to usecapacitor banks that are not too large. This makes it possible to put the banks on-line early in theload cycle. Since energy saved is the product of power reduction and the time the banks are on-line, the overall energy reduction is usually greater than when using large banks which are turnedon for shorter amounts of time (Fig. 2).

Demand Reduction

When capacitors are on-line reactive current and, therefore, total line current is reduced. Duringheavy load periods this has several advantages: The peak load is increased when it is mostneeded (essentially releasing demand), the effective line current capacity is increased, and theoperating line and transformer temperatures are reduced prolonging equipment lifetimes. Thelatter makes it possible to upgrade lines and transformers less frequently. All of these contributeto reduced costs and higher revenues.

Voltage Profile

Distribution feeder demand capacity is usually limited by voltage drop along the line. Thecustomer service entrance voltage must be stable, usually 5% to 10%. The feeder voltageprofile can be flattened by connecting large capacity banks to the grid. Several benefits becomeavailable: The kVA demand can be increased to arrive at the original voltage drop (this isequivalent to releasing feeder demand), the substation voltage can be lowered to reduce peakdemand and save energy, or the service entrance voltage can be allowed to increase therebyincreasing revenue (at the expense of less than optimum kVA demand).

System Considerations

Obviously properly switched capacitors located at appropriate locations along distribution

feeders provide great financial benefits to the utility.

If there is to be only one capacitor bank on a uniformly loaded feeder, the usual two-thirds, two-thirds rule gives optimum loss and demand reduction. This means that the bank kVAr size shouldbe two-thirds of the heavy load kVAr as measured at the substation, and the bank should belocated two-thirds the length of the feeder from the substation. If the objective is voltage controlthe bank should be farther from the substation.

With several banks on a uniformly loaded feeder, the total capacitor kVAr can more closelymatch the total load kVAr. Depending on the type of the switching control used, multiple bankson a feeder can lead to pumping as the controls affect the operating points of each other.Usually no more than three or four banks are used per feeder.

In the case of concentrated industrial loads, there should be a bank, sized to almost equal thereactive load current, located as close to each load as possible (Fig. 3).

Types of Control

VAr controlis the natural means to control capacitors because the latter adds a fixed amount ofleading VArs to the line regardless of other conditions, and loss reduction depends only onreactive current. Since reactive current at any point along a feeder is affected by downstreamcapacitor banks, this kind of control is susceptible to interaction with downstream banks.Consequently, in multiple capacitor feeders, the furthest downstream banks should go on-linefirst, and off-line last. VAr controls require current sensors.

Current controlis not as efficient as VAr control because it responds to total line current, andassumptions must be made about the load power factor. Current controls require current sensors.

Voltage control is used to regulate voltage profiles, however it may actually increase losses andcause instability from highly leading currents. Voltage control requires no current sensors.

Temperature controlis based on assumptions about load characteristics. Control effectivenessdepends on how well load characteristics are know. Not useful in cases where thosecharacteristics change often. Temperature control does not require any current sensors.

Time control is based on assumptions about load characteristics. Control effectiveness dependson how well load characteristics are know. Not useful in cases where those characteristicschange often. Time control does not require any current sensors.

Power factor controlis not the best way to control capacitor banks because power factor by itself

is not a measure of reactive current. Current sensors are needed.Combination controlusing various above methods is usually the best choice. If enough current,and/or other sensors are available, a centrally managed computerized capacitor control systemtaking into account the variety of available input parameters can be most effective, thoughexpensive to implement.

BUS isolator:

The bus isolators are used to isolate high voltage entering the bus or entering the substation.

Line Current transformer:

The current transformer used in the line is known as the line current transformer. The main useof this current transformer is to measure and to protect the instruments.

Line circuit breaker:

The circuit breaker used in the line is known as the line circuit breaker. The use of the circuitbreaker in the outgoing feeder is to break the circuit when the any fault occurs in the line i.e, anyfault on the outgoing feeder.

Line isolators with earth switch:

The line isolator with earth switch is to isolate the extra high voltage through the feeders goingout of the station. The isolator used in the line is known as the line isolator.

To output feeder:

The outgoing feeders are used to give the step down voltage to the required area. This feederssupply the voltage to the required place for further step down or its use in the place.
