Recommended Spares for two(2) years of trouble free operation Special tools and tackles required for operation and maintenance inspection and repair of the equipment/system offered. BUS CONFIGURATION & BUS TRANSFER SCHEME Bus-bar arrangement at the sub-station will be one main bus + one auxiliary bus. Details of the 132 kV Switchyard are furnished in the attached Dwg No. 1-3614-400-015, Rev-01. Auxiliary bus (also called 'Transfer bus") wherever exists will have one transfer bus coupler breaker, and is used mainly for taking the load of any one circuit when the main breaker of that circuit is to be taken out for maintenance/ repair. When a circuit is taken on the transfer bus, all the protection circuits connected to that bay shall be transferred so as to trip the transfer breaker in the event of occurrence of any fault on the feeder.

5.2.4 5.2.5
5.3 5.3.1
In the bay controller concept, conventional control and relay panels are not envisaged. Instead, bay level Intelligent Electrical/ Electronic Devices (IED) for bay control functions and bay protection functions are to be supplied and installed in the Switchyard control room in the switchyard. It is not intended to install any control/protection panels in the main control room. Main control room will accommodate only the SCADA/ substation automation system. However, PLCC room, etc will be a part of the main control room building. Conventional control panels are not envisaged. All the controls, indications, alarms, metering etc are required to be made possible through/available in the
SCADA system. It is therefore envisaged to provide Bay controller IED/ Bay Control Unit (BCU), in place of the conventional control panel. Thus Bay protection unit (BPU) & Bay control unit with discrete multifunction meters shall be offered. Since all the cables for CT/ CVT/ CB/aux. supply circuits will be connected to the bay level cubicle i.e. Bay protection and bay control unit through Bay Marshalling Box, only optical fibre cable shall be laid between the various bay level IEDs/ relays/meters and the SCADA. The SCADA system shall be connected to main plant DCS trough MOD bus protocol. Dedicated Bay Control Units and Bay Protection Units (BPU) shall be provided for each bay for Control and protection functionality in compliance with IEC-61850 standard. The offered protection and control unit shall comply with the logical node structure as per IEC-61850 and the trip and priority messages viz. interlocking data shall be on GOOSE. Combined Bay Protection and Control Unit shall not be acceptable. The required Control functions in BCU and Protection functions in BPU shall be as per the details given in this specification. 5.3.2 Bay Control Units (BCU)
One Bay Control Unit shall provide complete functionality for one bay. Each set of BCUs shall have sufficient digital inputs to acquire the status of each and every circuit breaker, isolator, earth switch etc. of that bay. Similarly the digital output shall be sufficient to control all the switchgears and also for functions like re-settings of relays etc. in one bay. 5.3.3 Bay Protection Unit (BPU)
Each Bay Protection Unit shall comprise one or more numerical relays to meet the protection requirements specified for each type of feeder. The attached SLD shall be referred for various bay protection systems in the 132kV switchyard. Bay Protection Units of various bays shall interact with BCUs over inter bay Network Bus to share information related to Bay Level Interlocking, fault data, alarms/events etc. However, the trip commands from Bay Protection Units shall be hard-wired directly (through suitable trip relay) to appropriate switchyard equipment. Also, critical interlocking data between Bay Protection Units and Bay Control Units, including the substation level interlocks such as breaker-disconnector and bus earth switch interlocks, busbar protection trip, etc. shall also be hard-wired to ensure complete bay level functionality even in case of failure of substation LAN. The interlocking information to be hard-wired between Bay Protection Units and Bay Control Units. After award of contract, Contractor shall submit control and protection logic diagrams for each circuit covering breaker isolator earth switch interlocks, auto reclosing scheme, protection trippings and manual closing and tripping, Protective relays and SAS shall be programmed and control wiring diagrams for the hard - wired interlocks shall be prepared on the basis of approved control and protection logic diagrams.
