Electrical System (Lt) Installation , Pre-Commissioning , Commissioning Of Different Ltmcc -Abc Of Thermal Power Plant Part -II

 

415 Volts LT switch gear consists of two bus sections A&B with a bus coupler between them. The two sections are fed from two individual power transformers 1A and 1B in case of switchboard & up stream breakers in case of MCCs & ACPs.The Transformers get their supplies from 11 KV unit switchgear feeders TRF1 & TRF2.  415 Volts Unit service switchboard feeds the boilers and turbine auxiliaries,(MCCS) Soot blower MCCs,Battery chargers(220 V ,24 V DC) Emergency switch gear and other unit auxiliaries.The single line diagram of the Unit service switchboard is given below :

PANEL LINED UP FOR ERECTION.

 

 

Every 415 V LT  switch gear consists  of a number of equipment and it is proposed that these will be checked individually using standard check lists and test procedures which will be recorded in the testing schedule. Items like transformers (LT and HT side) , Breaker and its circuit, different type of relays and their settings , Bus bars etc. If these equipments are checked individually then commissioning of the particular system will take very less time. All organisation prepared detailed documentation for checking the same . Some of the organisation also outlined about the IMTE required for the testing and also tools are required to do testing work.

 

STATUS OF THE PLANT.

 

All panels are erected , aligned and individually tested for any mechanical damage . Also check all the power contractors ( a waring was issued in last despatch.

 

Testing equipment required.

 

1. Variable 03 phase 415 v AC supply and also 220 v DC supply.

 

2. Insulation tester (megger) hand operated / electronically operated 500V

 

3 Digital multimeter ( 3 and half digit).

 

4. Analogue multimeter , Ampere meter , voltmeter 

 

5. Phase sequense meter.

 

6. Injection test kit for injecting current /voltage to relays for testing cut in and cut out

 

7. Micro ohm meter 

 

8. Battery operated continuity tester .

 

9. Hand tools of standard size and make.
