During transmissions, there are power (energy) loss and the whole subject of Transmission and Distribution... An electrical substation is a subsidiary station of an electricity generation, transmission and distribution system where voltage is transformed from high to low or the reverse using transformers. Electric power may flow through several substations between generating plant and consumer, and may be changed in voltage in several steps. The word substation comes from the days before the distribution system became a grid. The first substations were connected to only one power station where the generator was housed, and were subsidiaries of that power station. Elements of a substation:Substations generally have switching, protection and control equipment and one or more transformers. In a large substation, circuit breakers are used to interrupt any short-circuits or overload currents that may occur on the network. Smaller distribution stations may use reclosecircuit breakers or fuses for protection of distribution circuits. Substations do not usually have generators, although a power plant may have a substation nearby. Other devices such as powerfactor correction capacitors and voltage regulators may also be located at a substation. Substations may be on the surface in fenced enclosures, underground, or located in specialpurposebuildings. High-rise buildings may have several indoor substations. Indoor substations are usually found in urban areas to reduce the noise from the transformers, for reasons of appearance, or to protect switchgear from extreme climate or pollution conditions. 5 Where a substation has a metallic fence, it must be properly grounded (UK: earthed) to protect people from high voltages that may occur during a fault in the network. Earth faults at a substationcan cause a ground potential rise. Currents flowing in the Earth's surface during a fault can causemetal objects to have a significantly different voltage than the ground under a person's feet; this touch potential presents a hazard of electrocution. Transmission substation:A transmission substation connects two or more transmission lines. The simplest case is where all transmission lines have the same voltage. In such cases, the substation contains high-voltage switches that allow lines to be connected or isolated for fault clearance or maintenance. A transmission station may have transformers to convert between two transmission voltages, voltagecontrol devices such as capacitors, reactors or static VAr compensator and equipment such as phase shifting transformers to control power flow between two adjacent power systems. Transmission substations can range from simple to complex. A small "switching station" may be little more than a bus plus some circuit breakers. The largest transmission substations can cover a large area (several acres/hectares) with multiple voltage levels, many circuit breakers and a large amount of protection and control equipment (voltage and current transformers, relays and SCADA systems). Distribution substation: A distribution substation in Scarbor-ough, Ontario, Canada disguised as a house, complete with a driveway, front walk and a mown lawn and shrubs in the front yard. A warning notice can be clearly seen on the "front door". A distribution substation transfers power from the transmission system to the distribution system of an area. It is uneconomical to directly connect electricity consumers to the highvoltage main transmission network, unless they use large amounts of power, so the distribution station reduces voltage to a value suitable for local distribution. The input for a distribution substation is typically at least two transmission or sub transmission lines. Input voltage may be, for example, 115 kV, or whatever is common in the area. 6 Distribution voltages are typically medium voltage, between 2.4 and 33 Kvdepending on the size of the area served and the practices of the local utility.

Towers and structures are three dimensional fabricated lattice structures made up by bolting, riveting and welding the structural members of galvanized steel. Due to limitation of transmitting voltage up to 400kV, in India rigid self supporting towers are used for transmission. The towers may be single or double circuit. When a tower has only one circuit it is called vertical tower. Double circuit tower is called horizontal tower. 15 Depending on several factors towers may be classified as follows: Straight Line Tangent or Suspension Tower Section Tower or Tension Tower Small Angle Tower ( 2 to 15 degree) Medium Angle Tower ( 15 to 30 degree) Large Angle Tower ( > 30 degree) with dead end Large Angle with Corner End Anchor Tower Long Span Tower Transposition Tower Take-off Tower or Turning Tower Crossing Tower Anti-wind Tower 16 Isolators:In electrical engineering, a disconnecter or isolator switch is used to make sure that an electrical circuit can be completely de-energized for service or maintenance. Such switches are often found in electrical distribution and industrial applications where machinery must have its source of driving power removed for adjustment or repair. High-voltage isolation switches are used in electrical substations to allow isolation of apparatus such as circuit breakers and transformers, and transmission lines, for maintenance. In the substation following type isolators are used for the protection: Horizontal break center rotating double break isolator:This type of construction has three insulator stacks per pole. The two one each side is fixed and one at the center is rotating type. The central insulator stack can swing about its vertical axis through about 900C. The fixed contacts are provided on the top of each of the insulator stacks on the side. The contact bar is fixed horizontally on the central insulator stack. In closed position, the contact shaft connects the two fixed contacts. While opening, the central stack rotates through 900C, and the contact shaft swings horizontally giving a double break. The isolators are mounted on a galvanized rolled steel frame. The three poles are interlocked by means of steel shaft. A common operating mechanism is provided for all the three poles. One pole of a triple pole isolator is closed position. 17 Pantograph isolator:illustrates the construction of a typical pantograph isolator. While closing, the linkages of pantograph are brought nearer by rotating the insulator column. In closed position the upper two arms of the pantograph close on the overhead station bus bar giving a grip. The current is carried by the upper bus bar to the lower bus bar through the conducting arms of the pantograph. While opening, the rotating insulator column is rotated about its axis. Thereby the pantograph blades collapse in vertical plane and vertical isolation is obtained between the line terminal and pantograph upper terminal. Pantograph isolators cover less floor area. Each pole can be located at a suitable point and the three poles need not be in one line, can be located in a line at desired angle with the bus axis. Isolator with earth switches (ES):The instrument current transformer (CT) steps down the current of a circuit to a lower value and is used in the same types of equipment as a potential transformer. This is done by constructing the secondary coil consisting of many turns of wire, around the primary coil, which contains only a few turns of wire. In this manner, measurements of high values of current can be obtained. A current 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 current when under load, this large increase in magnetizing current will build up a large flux in the magneticPantograph isolatorcircuit and cause the transformer to act as a step-up transformer, inducing an excessively high voltage in the secondary when under no load. The main use of using the earth switch (E/S) is to ground the extra voltage which may be dangerous for any of the instrument in the substation. 18 Circuit breaker:A circuit breaker is an automatically-operated electrical switch designed to protect an electrical circuit from damage caused by overload or short circuit. Its basic function is to detect a fault condition and, by interrupting continuity, to immediately discontinue electrical flow. Unlike a fuse, which operates once and then has to be replaced, a circuit breaker can be reset (either manually or automatically) to resume normal operation. Circuit breakers are made in varying sizes, fromsmall devices that protect an individual household appliance up to large switchgear designed to protect high voltage circuits feeding an entire city. Once a fault is detected, contacts within the circuit breaker must open to interrupt the circuit; some mechanically-stored energy (using something such as springs or compressed air) contained within the breaker is used to separate the contacts, although some of the energy required may be obtained from the fault current itself. Small circuit breakers may be manually operated; larger units have solenoids to trip the mechanism, and electric motors to restore energy to the springs. The circuit breaker contacts must carry the load current without excessive heating, and must also withstand the heat of the arc produced when interrupting the circuit. Contacts are made of copper or copper alloys, silver alloys, and other materials. When a current is interrupted, an arc is generated. This arc must be contained, cooled, and extinguished in a controlled way, so that the gap between the contacts can again withstand the voltage in the circuit. Different circuit breakers use vacuum, air, insulating gas or oil as the medium in which the arc forms. Different techniques are used to extinguish the arc including: Lengthening of the arc Intensive cooling (in jet chambers) Division into partial arcs Zero point quenching (Contacts open at the zero current time crossing of the AC waveform, effectively breaking no load current at the time of opening. The zero crossing occures at twice the line frequency i.e. 100 times per second for 50Hz ac and 120 times per second for 60Hz ac ) Connecting capacitors in parallel with contacts in DC circuits 19 Finally, once the fault condition has been cleared, the contacts must again be closed to restore power to the interrupted circuit. Types of circuit breaker:Many different classifications of circuit breakers can be made, based on their features such as voltage class, construction type, interrupting type, and structural features. Electrical power transmission networks are protected and controlled by high-voltage breakers. The definition of high voltage varies but in power transmission work is usually thought to be 72.5 kV or higher, according to a recent definition by the International Electrotechnical Commission(IEC). High-voltage breakers are nearly always solenoid-operated, with current sensing protective relays operated through current transformers. In substations the protection relay scheme can be complex, protecting equipment and busses from various types of overload or ground/earth fault. High-voltage breakers are broadly classified by the medium used to extinguish the arc. Bulk oil Minimum oil Air blast Vacuum SF6 In refinary substation only SF6 circuit breaker is used. The breaker uses SF6 (SulpherHexafluoride) gas for arc extinction purpose. This gas has excellent current interrupting and insulating properties, chemically, it is one of the most stable compound in the pure state and under normal condition it is physically inert, non-flammable, non toxic and odorless and there is no danger tepersonnel and fire hazard. It's density is about. 5 times that of air insulating strength is about 2-3 times that of air and exceeds that of oil at 3 Kg/Cm pressure. SF6 breaker called as maintenance free breaker, has simple construction with few moving parts: 20 The fission products created during breaking and not fully recombined are, either precipitated as metallic fluoride or absorbed by a static filter which also absorbs the residual moisture. Since no gas is exhausted from the breaker and very little compressed air is required for operation, noise during the operation is also very Jess. Since SF6 gas is inert and stable at normal temperature, contacts do not settler from oxidization or other chemical reactions, whereas in air or oil type breakers oxidation of contacts would causehigh temperature rise. SF6 gas circuit breakers, designed to conform to the same standards as airor oil breakers, but in operation it is possible to get better service even at higher fault levels. 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. The gas thus obtained contains other fluorides such as S2F10, SF4 and must be purified further SF6 gas generally supplier by chemical firms. The cost of gas is low if manufactured in large scale. During the arcing period SF6 gas is blown axially along the arc. The gas removes the heat from 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 the current zero and the arc is extinguished. Due to its electro negativity, and low arc time constant, the SF6 gas regains its dielectric strength rapidly after the current zero, the rate of rise of dielectric strength is very high and the time constant is very small.

Under these overvoltage conditions, the insulation of the power system equipment are subjected to electrical stress which may lead to catastrophic failure. Broadly, three types of overvoltages occur in power systems: (i)temporary over-voltages, (ii)switching overvoltages and (iii) lightning overvoltages. The duration of these overvoltages vary in the ranges of microseconds to sec depending upon the type and nature of overvoltages. Hence, the power system calls for overvoltage protective devices to ensure the reliability. Conventionally, the overvoltage protection is obtained by the use of lightning / surge arresters . Under normal operating voltages, the impedance of lightning arrester, placed in parallel to the equipment to be protected, is very high and allow the equipment to perform its respective function. Whenever the overvoltage appears across the terminals, the impedance of thearrestercollapses in such a way that the power system equipment would not experience the overvoltage. As soon as the overvoltage disappears, the arrester recovers its impedance back. Thus the arrester protects the equipment from overvoltages. 23 The technology of lightning arresters has undergone major transitions during this century. In the early part of the century, spark gaps were used to suppress these overvoltages. The silicon carbide gapped arresters replaced the spark gaps in 1930 and reigned supreme till 1970. During the mid 1970s, zinc oxide (ZnO) gapless arresters, possessing superior protection characteristics, replaced the silicon carbide gapped arresters. Usage of ZnO arresters have increased the reliability of power systems many fold. Current transformer:Current Transformers (CT’s) are instrument transformers that are used to supply a reduced value of current to meters, protective relays, and other instruments. CT’s provide isolation from the high voltage primary, permit grounding of the secondary for safety, and step-down the magnitude of the measured current to a value that can be safely handled by the instruments. 24 TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION FOR CURRENT TRANSFORMERS:1.0 GENERAL:1.1 This specification covers manufacture, test, & supply of LT Current transformers of class 0.5 accuracy. 1.2 The CTs shall be suitable for metering purpose. 2.0 TYPE:2.1 The CTs shall be of ring type or window type (bar type or bus-bar type CT’s shall not be accepted). 2.2 The secondary leads shall be terminated with Tinned Cooper rose contact terminals with arrangements for sealing purposes. 2.3 Polarity (both for primary and second leads) shall be marked. 2.4 The CTs shall be varnished, fiberglass tape insulated or cast resin, air-cooled type.

The primary of this transformer consists of a large number of fine wires connected across the line. The secondary winding consists of a few turns that provides for measuring instruments and relays, a voltage which is a known fraction of the line voltage. The potential transformers are classified as; 1.Magnetic type (up to 132 kV) 2.Capacitive type (CVT) (above 132 kV) PTs are important in case of voltmeter, wattmeter, distance, and directional relays. Its one end of the primary winding is grounded so it has only input bushing and it is connected in parallel with the bus. In Kasba substation, the CVT is also used as the coupling capacitor for power line carrier communication, for protecting the low frequency noise. 28 Capacitor voltage transformer:In high and extra high voltage transmission systems, capacitor voltage transformers (CVTs) are used to provide potential outputs to metering instruments and protective relays. In addition, when equipped with carrier accessories, CVTs can be used for power line carrier (PLC) coupling. A capacitor voltage transformer (CVT) is a transformer used in power systems to step-down extra 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 supply frequency and a transformer used to isolate and further step-down the voltage for the instrumentation or protective relay. The device has at least four terminals, a high-voltage terminal for connection to the high voltage signal, a ground terminal and at least one set of secondary terminals for connection to the instrumentation or protective relay. CVTs are typically single-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 often replaced by a stack of capacitors connected in series. This results in a large voltage drop across the stack of capacitors that replaced the first capacitor and a comparatively small voltage drop across the second capacitor, C2, and hence the secondary terminals. 29 Arcing horns:- Arcing horns (arc horns) are projecting conductors used to protect insulators on high voltage electric power transmission systems from damage during flashover. The horns encourage flash over between themselves rather than across the surface of the insulator they serve to protect. Horns are normally paired on either side of the transformer, one connected to the high voltage part and other to ground. They are frequently seen on insulator strings, or protecting transformer bushings. The horns can take various forms such as simple cylindrical rods, circular guard rings or contoured curves, sometimes known as stirrups. High voltage equipment particularly that which is installed outside such a overhead power line is commonly subjected to transient overvoltage, which may be caused by phenomena such as lightning strikes, faults on other equipments or switching surges during circuit re-energisation. Over voltage conditions such as these are un-predictable and in general cannot be prevented. Line terminations at which a transmission line connects to a bus bar or a transformer bushing, are at greatest risk to over voltage due to change in characteristic impedance at this point. An electrical insulator serves to provide physical separation of conducting parts and under normal operating conditions is continuously subject to high electric field which occupies the air surrounding the equipment. Over voltage event may cause the dielectric field to exceed the 30 dielectric strength of air and result in the formation of an arc between the conducting parts and over the surface of the insulator. This is called flashover. Contamination of the surface of the insulator reduces the breakdown strength and increases the tendency to flashover. On an electrical transmission system protective relays are expected, to detect the formation of the arc and automatically open the circuit breakers to discharge the circuit and extinguish the arc. Under a worst case this process may take several seconds. During which time the insulator surface would be in close contact with the highly energetic plasma of the arc. This is very damaging to an insulator and may shatter brittle glass or ceramic discs, resulting in its complete failure. Arcing horns form a spark gap across the insulators with a lower breakdown voltage than the air path along the insulator surface. So an over voltage will cause the air to breakdown and the arc to be formed between the arcing horns diverting it away from the surface of the insulators. An arc between the horns is more tolerable for the equipment, providing more time for the fault to be detected and the arc to be safely cleared by the remote circuit breakers. The geometry of some designs encourages the arc to migrate away from the insulator, driven by rising currents as it heats up the surrounding air. As it does so the path length increases, cooling the arc, reducing the electric field and causing the arc to extinguish itself when it can no longer span the gap. Other designs can utilize the magnetic fields produced by the high current to drive the arc away from the insulator. This type of arrangement is known as magnetic blowout. Design criteria and maintenance regimes may treat arcing horns as sacrificial equipment, cheaper and more easily replaced than the insulator, failure of which can result in complete destruction of the equipment it insulates. Failure of the insulator strings on overhead lines could result in parting of the line, with significant safety and cost implications. Arcing horns thus play an important role in the process of correlating system protection with protective device characteristics, known as insulation coordination. The horns should provide among other characteristics, near infinite impedance during normal operating conditions to minimize conductive current losses, low impedance during the flashover, and physical resilience to the high temperature of the arc. As operating voltages increase, greater considerations must be given to such design principles. At medium voltages, one of the two horns can be omitted as the horn to horn gap can otherwise be small enough to be bridged by an alighting bird. Alternatively duplex gaps consisting of two sections on opposite sides on the opposite sides of the insulator can be fitted. Low voltage 31 distribution systems, in which risk of arcing is much lower, may not use arcing horns at all. The presence of arcing horn necessarily disturbs the normal electric field distribution across the insulator due to their small but significant capacitance. Most importantly a flashover across an arcing horn produces an earth fault resulting in circuit outage until the fault is cleared by circuit breaker operation. For this reason, non linear resistors known as surge diverters can replace arcing horns at critical locations. 32 Underground cables:- An underground cable consists of one or more conductors covered with suitable insulation and surrounded by a protective cover. In practice underground cables are required to deliver three phase power. But mainly cables are used in a substation to connect the high voltage equipments in the yard to the control room for controlling and monitoring purpose. For the purpose single core, 2 cores, 3 core cables are used. But sometimes 4, 8, 12, or 16 core cables are also used. The various parts of a 3 conductor cable are: 1. Core or conductors 2. Insulation 3. Metallic sheath 4. Bedding 5. Armoring 6. Serving Insulation is applied over the conductors. The various types of insulation are classified as: 33 i. Tapped insulation ( impregnated paper or varnished cambric ) ii. Rubber compound insulation and rubber compound sheaths iii. Plastic insulation (polyethylene, PVC, XPLE). INSULATING SYSTEMS:The external insulation is provided by the porcelain housing and coordinated with the capacitor stack, consisting of virtually identical elements so that the axial voltage distribution from the line terminal to ground is essentially uniform. The capacitor elements have a mixed dielectric material consisting of alternating layers of polypropylene film and Kraft paper. The Kraft paper layers serve as a wicking agent to ensure homogenous synthetic oil impregnation. The electromagnetic unit (EMU) is housed in an oil-filled tank at the base of the capacitor stack. Mineral oil is employed as the insulating medium instead of air because of its superior insulating and heat transfer properties. The use of an oil-filled base tank removes the need for space heaters in the secondary terminal box as this area is warmed by heat transfer from the insulating oil. This results in a more reliable and cost effective design. INSULATING OIL:We use insulating oils with excellent dielectric strength, aging, and gas absorbing properties. The synthetic oil used for the capacitor units possesses superior gas absorption properties resulting in exceptionally low partial discharge with high inception/extinction voltage ratings. The oil used forthe EMU is premium naphthenicmineral oil. The oil is filtered, vacuum dried and degassed withinhouse processing. It contains no PCB. 34 CAPACITOR STACK:The capacitor stack is a voltage divider which provides a reduced voltage at the intermediate voltage bushing for a given voltage applied at the primary terminal. The capacitor stack is a multicapacitor- unit assembly. Each unit is housed in an individual insulator. A cast aluminum cover is on top of the upper capacitor assembly and is fitted with an aluminum terminal. An adapter for mounting a line trap on top of the CVT can be provided with an optional (and removable) HV terminal. Construction:1. Main coil:The main coil winding are encapsulated by winding continuous filament fiberglass That has been impregnated with a specially selected epoxy resin harden system. The epoxy resin fiberglass composite is then curved according to a programmed temperature Schedule. 2. Tuning pack: Tuning pack is connected in parallel with the main coil to provide a high impedance to the desired carrier frequency. 3. Lighting arresters: The line traps are protected by a lighting arrestors against high voltage surges caused by atmospheric effects or switching operations. 35 Protective relays:- Protective relaying is one of the several features of power system design. Every part of the power system is protected. The protective relaying is used to give an alarm or to cause prompt removal of any element of power system from service when hat element behave abnormally. The relays are compact and self-contained devices which can sense abnormal conditions. Whenever abnormal condition occur , the relays contacts get closed. This in turn closes the trip circuit of a circuit breaker. For switchyard protections following type relays are used: 1. Overcurrent relay 2. Earth fault relay 3. REF relay 4. Differential relay 5. Directional relay 6. Over flux relay 7. Buchoolz relay 8. IDMT relay 36 Shunt reactor for bus voltage:In EHV substations, it is a common practice to use breaker switched bus reactors to maintain the bus voltage within permissible limits under varying load conditions. With the development of Controlled Shunt Reactor (CSR) which is a thyristor controlled high impedance transformer, a stable bus voltage can be maintained by providing variable reactive power based on the bus voltage deviations due to the load variations. The high impedance transformer which is also known as reactor transformer (RT) can be made to any size without any limitation unlike gapped core shunt reactors. As a single CSR of large capacity can be realized with suitable control mechanism, this approach proves to be technically superior and economical compared to the existing practice of breaker switched bus reactors. A CSR with a detailed control system is modeled along with a typical EHV system in PSCAD/EMTDC environment. The study includes the effectiveness of filters introduced in the tertiary of the reactor transformer in controlling the harmonics generated during partial conduction of thyristors. The transient and steady state performance of the CSR system for varying system conditions is studied and the same is compared with the conventional practice. The paper presents and discusses the results of the study. Keywords: High impedance transformer, shunt reactor, reactive power, compensation, EHV systems, voltage control, thyristors. Shunt reactors which are meant to be used for controlling the bus voltage of sub station are known as bus reactors. These are always connected through a circuit breaker and switched on or off, based on the voltage variations. In large switching substations, it is not uncommon to find multiple bus reactors when the total reactor capacityrequired is large. Due to limited standard ratings of gapped core shunt reactors, it is necessary to provide in multiples of standard ratings along with associated bay equipment and space for accommodating the same. The CSR mentioned above is based on a high impedance transformer known as Reactor Transformer (RT) with a provision to control from the secondary side through 37 thyristor valves. As RT of any large capacity can be realized as a single three phase unit or three single phase units, it is possible to provide variable reactive power support by controlling the firing angle of the thyristor valves. This continuously variable CSR as bus reactor offers following advantages. 1. Continuously variable reactive power based on the voltage variation. 2. Fast Response to dynamic conditions like load throw off 3. Reduced losses with optimized reactive power support. 4. Better economy in terms of substation space and auxiliary equipment.

Studies show that a flat voltage profile on the system can significantly reduce line losses. Shunt capacitor banks are relatively inexpensive and can be easily installed anywhere on the network. Shunt capacitor banks (SCB) are mainly installed to provide capacitive reactive compensation/ Power factor correction. The use of SCBs has increased because they are relatively inexpensive, easy and quick to install and can be deployed virtually anywhere in the network. Its installation has other beneficial effects on the system such as: improvement of the voltage at the load, better voltage regulation (if they were adequately designed), reduction of losses and reduction or postponement of investments in transmission. 39 Other definitions and terms:- OLTC in a transformer:Onload Tap Changer (OLTC) is used with higher capacity transformers where HT side voltage variation is frequent and a nearly constant LT is required. OLTC is fitted with the transformer itself. Multiple tappings from HV windings are brought to the OLTC chamber and conacted to fixed contacts. Moving contacts rotates with the help of rotating mechanism having a spindle. This spindle can be rotated manually as well as electrically with a motor. Motor is connected in such a way that it can rotate in both the directions so as to rotate the OLTC contacts in clockwise and anticlock-wise direction. Two push buttons are fitted on the LCP (local control panel) to rotate the motor and hence the OLTC contacts in clockwise and anticlockwise direction. This movement of contacts thus controls the output LV voltage of the transformer. So rotating of OLTC contacts with spindle or push buttons in this way is a manuall process. In case this process of rotating the OLTC contacts and hence controlling the LV side voltage is to be done automatically then a RTCC (Remote Tap Changer Controller) is installed with the transformer HT Panel. The RTCC sends signals to LCP and LCP in turn rotates the motor as per the signals received from the the RTCC. 40 Interposing CT:Transformer differential relays compare the phase and magnitude of the current entering one winding of the transformer with that leaving via the other winding(s). Any difference in Phase or magnitude between the measured quantities will cause current to flow through the operate winding of the relay. If this current exceeds the relay setting, tripping of theTransformer circuit breakers will be initiated. To enable a comparison to be made, the differential scheme should be arranged so that the relay will see rated current when the full load current flows in the protected circuit. In order to achieve this, the line current transformers must be matched to the normal full load current of the transformer. Where this is not the case it is necessary to use an auxiliary interposing current transformer to Provide amplitude correction. The connection of the line CTs should compensate for any phase shift arising across the transformer. Alternatively the necessary phase correction may also be provided by the use of an interposing CT. 41 Local backup protection:- The primary objective of back-up protection is to open all sources of generation to an Unclearedfault on the system. To accomplish this objective, an adequate back-up protective system must meet the following functional requirements: 1. It must recognize the existence of all faults which occur within its prescribed zone of protection. 2. It must detect the failure of the primary protection to clear any fault as planned. 3. In clearing the fault from the system, it must a. Initiate the tripping of the minimum number of circuit breakers. b. Operate fast enough (consistent with coordination requirements) to maintain system stability, prevent excessive equipment damage, and maintain a prescribed degree of service continuity. Insulators:Table for insulators string: Line voltage Single suspension Single tension Double suspension Double tension 42 Corona ring:- A corona ring, also called anti-corona ring, is a toroid of (typically) conductive material located in the vicinity of a terminal of a high voltage device. It is electrically insulated. Stacks of more spaced rings are often used. The role of the corona ring is to distribute the electric field gradient and lower its maximum values below the corona threshold, preventing the corona discharge. Corona rings are typically installed on very high voltage power line insulators. Manufacturers suggest a corona ring on the line end of the insulator for above 230 kV and on both ends for above 500 kV. Corona rings prolong lifetime of insulator surfaces by suppressing the effects of corona discharge. 43 COMMUNICATION IN THE SUBSTATION:- Communication is a vital part of any substation. It is necessary to connect HQ, CLD and different tie line substations. For load dispatching and better power management, communication is essential. The KASBA substation employs the following medium for communication are used: Power line carrier communication using WAVE TRAPPER: Power line carrier communication means that communication signals are sent through power line along with the power. The supply to communication system is 48V DC. A PLCC system should have the following parts: A telephone exchange system Battery system with battery charger A carrier signal generating system Coupling capacitor Wave trapper Earthing switch Lightning arrestor Drainage coil The wave trapper is a tuned LC circuit, where the frequency carrier gets blocked and the power frequency electrical signal passes into the electrical circuit. High frequency wave passes through the coupling capacitor but low frequency is blocked here. Drainage coil is used to bypass the over current surges whereas lightning arrestor is kept here additionally to provide safety against over voltages and lightning surges. Generally PLCC is done using R phase. The conductor from the lower end of the coupling capacitor enters the drainage coil. LA and earthing switch enter into a box, known as Line Matching Unit (LMU). From there a coaxial cable enters to carrier set. 44 Phase modulation is employed in the carrier set circuit. The signal is sent to the transmitter and after amplification it is passed to the filter. In kasba substation the receiving end and sending end frequencies are as follows. KASBA T.F = 380KHZ R.F = 428KHZ Satellite communication:VSAT or Very Small Aperture Terminal communication through satellite is also done in KASBA substation. It is done with other primary grid substation, CLD, HQ authorities. Due to weak, noisy, slow and poor receiving qualities this type of communication is not used now days. VHF radio communication: This type of communication takes place between 132KV and 33KV substations. The frequency of sending and receiving signals is 167.125MHz. Its main disadvantage is that it is one way communication at a time. P & T phone and mobile communication: 45 There are two P&T phones in Kasba substation. One is used for normal official works and the other phone line is an emergency line and can be used for CLD or HQ for collecting data from any feeder or bay. Mobile phones are personal and are used only in emergency. 46 SPECIFICATION AND RATING:POWER TRANSFORMERS: There are three auto transformers for stepping down the voltage at a level of 220 kV/132 kV/33kV. Two of them are MITSUBISHI Corp., Japan made and the other is CROMPTON GREAVES India made. Their load capacities are 150MVA and 160 MVA respectively. Their tertiary winding voltage is 33kV. The tertiary voltage of the CROMPTON GREAVES transformer has been further stepped down to .4kV by an auxiliary transformer to provide power to the central load of the substation only.

They have their major insulation over high current carrying primary. Live Tank type- Here Ct tanks are on the top of the instrument bushings. Primary winding is short and rigid, therefore more reliable and can withstand high short circuit current. They don’t have their major insulation over high current carrying primary, so the heat generated can easily be dissipated, thus having a longer life.
