‘‘The substation in Bhinmal, Jalore-343029, Rajasthan was completed by the year 1986 under
AEGCL; it is one of the largest power grids in the state of Rajasthan and the north eastern India.
This substation has the capacity of 220kv and can step down to 132kv using three input lines
through the incoming feeders. The input feeders are namely:

AGIA- i; AGIA-ii; LONGPI- i; LONGPI- ii; SAMUGURI-i; SAMUGURI- ii.

All these feeders come into the substation with 220kv.‘

The substation has another substation under it. The capacity of this is 132kv/33kv. This
substation was completed by the year 1997 under AEGCL. The purpose of this station was to
step down the 132kv to direct distribution to the 33kv/11kv substations in six different areas of
the state.

The substation of 132kv/33kv has six outgoing feeders, namely:

JWAHAR NAGAR, GARBHANGA, MIRZA, PALTAN BAZAR, and Kahilipara STATION.


These out going feeders are of 33kv line.

The most important of any substation is the grounding of the instruments, transformers etc. used
in the substation. For grounding of the substation a metallic square or some poly shaped metal
boxes are placed in the ground. These ground the extra high voltage to the ground. As it is
dangerous to us to go near the instrument without proper earth. If the instruments are not ground
properly they may give a huge shock to anyone who would stay near it and also it is dangerous
for the costly instrument as they may get damaged by this high voltage.

E HV S U B STATION

EHV Sub-Station forms an important link between Transmission network and Distribution
network. It has a vital influence of reliability of service. Apart from ensuring efficient

©
‘
transmission and Distribution of power, the sub-station configuration should be such that it
enables easy maintenance of equipment and minimum interruptions in power supply. Flexibility
for future expansion in terms of number of circuits and transformer MVA Capacity also needs to
be 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 is
decided 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 LEVEL

1) Upto 150 MVA 132 KV.


2) From 150 MVA to 300 MVA 220 K.V.
3) 300 MVA to 1000 MVA 400 K.V.

($-$‘ *.,.£ "/0‘/1‘*" .‘

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 is
required for various construction activities; (especially civil works,), earthing and for
drinking purposes etc.

v)‘ The sub-station site should be as near to the town / city but should be clear of public
places, 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 sheds
etc. with roads and space for future expansion.

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

viii)‘ While selecting the land for the substation preference to be given to the Govt. land over
private land.

ix)‘ The land should not have water logging problem.


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

($2$‘ 3‘‘, ‘4  ‘

After the selection of site of the proposed EHV Substation and finalization of the area
required, proceedings for acquisition of land have to be initiated. The acquisition of
land 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 the
normal period of acquisition of land. The acquision of land should not in any way
disturb the commissioning of programme of sub-staion. In MSETCL a land
acquisition is carried out by the concerned Civil wing. The proposal for acquisition of
land is submitted to the District Collector in case of Govt. land and to the land
acquisition officer in case of private land through the PWD Authorities accompanied
by 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 not
become landless if his land is acquired.

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

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

Possessions of land are taken by taking joint measurements.

c
‘
1. Lightening arrestors

Lightening arrestors are the instrument that are used in the incoming feeders so that to prevent
the high voltage entering the main station. This high voltage is very dangerous to the instruments
used in the substation. Even the instruments are very costly, so to prevent any damage lightening
arrestors are used. The lightening arrestors do not let the lightening to fall on the station. If some
lightening occurs the arrestors pull the lightening and ground it to the earth. In any substation the
main important is of protection which is firstly done by these lightening arrestors. The lightening
arrestors are grounded to the earth so that it can pull the lightening to the ground. The lightening
arrestor works with an angle of 30° to 45° making a cone.‘

2. C V T

A capacitor voltage transformer (£ ) 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 a
protective relay. In its most basic form the device consists of three parts: two capacitors across
which 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.

3. Wave trap

Wave trap is an instrument using for tripping of the wave. The function of this trap is that it traps
the unwanted waves. Its function is of trapping wave. Its shape is like a drum. It is connected to
the 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 the
substation. This transformer steps down the current from 800 amps to 1 amp. This is done
because we have no instrument for measuring of such a large current. The main use of this
transformer is (a) distance protection; (b) backup protection; (c) measurement.

5. Lightening arrestors with earth switch

cc
‘
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 directly
earth the lightening. The arrestor works at 30° to 45° angel of the lightening making a cone. The
earth switch can be operated manually, by pulling the switch towards ground. This also helps in
breaking the line entering the station. By doing so maintenance and repair of any instrument can
b performed.

6. Circuit breaker

The circuit breakers are used to break the circuit if any fault occurs in any of the instrument.
These circuit breaker breaks for a fault which can damage other instrument in the station. For
any unwanted fault over the station we need to break the line current. This is only done
automatically by the circuit breaker. There are mainly two types of circuit breakers used for any
substations. They are (a) SF6 circuit breakers; (b) spring circuit breakers.

The use of SF6 circuit breaker is mainly in the substations which are having high input kv input,
say above 220kv and more. The gas is put inside the circuit breaker by force ie under high
pressure. When if the gas gets decreases there is a motor connected to the circuit breaker. The
motor starts operating if the gas went lower than 20.8 bar. There is a meter connected to the
breaker so that it can be manually seen if the gas goes low. The circuit breaker uses the SF6 gas
to reduce the torque produce in it due to any fault in the line. The circuit breaker has a direct link
with the instruments in the station, when any fault occur alarm bell rings.

The spring type of circuit breakers is used for small kv stations. The spring here reduces the
torque produced so that the breaker can function again. The spring type is used for step down
side of 132kv to 33kv also in 33kv to 11kv and so on. They are only used in low distribution
side.

7. Line isolator

The line isolators are used to isolate the high voltage from flow through the line into the bus.
This isolator prevents the instruments to get damaged. It also allows the only needed voltage and
rest is earthed by itself.

8. BUS

The bus is a line in which the incoming feeders come into and get into the instruments for further
step up or step down. The first bus is used for putting the incoming feeders in la single line.
There may be double line in the bus so that if any fault occurs in the one the other can still have
the current and the supply will not stop. The two lines in the bus are separated by a little distance
by a conductor having a connector between them. This is so that one can work at a time and the
other works only if the first is having any fault.


‘
9. Potential transformers with bus isolators

There are two potential transformers used in the bus connected both side of the bus. The
potential transformer uses a bus isolator to protect itself. The main use of this transformer is to
measure the voltage through the bus. This is done so as to get the detail information of the
voltage passing through the bus to the instrument. There are two main parts in it (a)
measurement; (b) protection.

10. Isolators

The use of this isolator is to protect the transformer and the other instrument in the line. The
isolator 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 the
feeder 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 any
feeders.

13. Lightening arrestors

The use of lightening arrestors after the bus is to protect the instrument in the station so that
lightening 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 the
same time. In case of a 220kv or more kv line station auto transformers are used. While in case
of 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 the
instruments in the station.

16. Circuit breaker

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

17. Current transformer

c
‘
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.

20. Potential transformer with a bus isolator

Two PT are always connected across the bus so that the voltage across the bus could be
measured.

21. Capacitor bank attached to the bus.

The capacitor banks are used across the bus so that the voltage does not gets down till the require
place.

The Bhinmal 220kv/ 132kv substation, Jalore, has two stations in it. Firstly the 220kV and next
the 132kV/ 33kV substation.

The 220kV substation has the capacity of 220kv and can step down to 132kv using three input
lines through the incoming feeders. The input feeders are namely:

AGIA- i; AGIA-ii; LONGPI- i; LONGPI- ii; SAMUGURI-i; SAMUGURI- ii.

All these feeders come into the substation with 220kv.‘

The purpose of the 132kV/ 33kV substation was to step down the 132kv to direct distribution to
the 33kv/11kv substations in six different areas of the state.

The substation of 132kv/33kv has six outgoing feeders, namely:

JWAHAR NAGAR, GARBHANGA, MIRZA, PALTAN BAZAR, and Kahilipara STATION.


These out going feeders are of 33kv line.

The complete line diagram of the station are shown in the figure below:

Firstly we can see ! !‘ . These lightening arrestors can resist or ground the
lightening if falls on the incoming feeders. The lightening arrestors can work in a angle of 30
degrees around them. They are mostly used for protection of the instruments used in the
substation. As the cost of the instrument in the station are very high to protect them from high
voltage from lightening these lightening arrestors are used.

Fig. lightening arrestor.

It is a device used on electrical power systems to protect the


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

‘‘, ‘   ‘‘ ‘‘< : (1) Represents Lord Kelvin's "reduced" area of
the region, (2) Surface concentric with the Earth such that the quantities stored over it and under
it are equal; (3) Building on a site of excessive electrostatic charge density; (4) Building on a site
of 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 near
them. Lightning arresters, also called surge protectors, are devices that are connected between

cu
‘
each electrical conductor in a power and communications systems and the Earth. These provide a
short circuit to the ground that is interrupted by a non-conductor, over which lightning jumps. Its
purpose is to limit the rise in voltage when a communications or power line is struck by
lightning.

The non-conducting material may consist of a semi-conducting material such as silicon carbide
or 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 glow
lamp) connected between the protected conductor and ground, or myriad voltage-activated solid-
state switches called varistors or MOVs. Lightning arresters built for substation use are
impressive devices, consisting of a porcelain tube several feet long and several inches in
diameter, filled with disks of zinc oxide. A safety port on the side of the device vents the
occasional internal explosion without shattering the porcelain cylinder.

. ‘#‘  ‘! !‘  ‘

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, or
insulated from the tower structures by small insulators that are easily jumped by lightning
voltages. The latter allows the pilot wire to be used for communications purposes, or to carry
current for aircraft clearance lights. Electrical substations may have a web of grounded wires
covering the whole plant.

,! !‘  ‘  ‘ !‘

Considerable material is used to make up lightning protection systems, so it is prudent to


consider carefully where a rod structure will have the greatest effect. Historical understanding of
lightning, 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 is
possible for lightning to strike the side of a building. A better technique to determine the effect of
a new arrester is called the "rolling sphere technique" and was developed by Dr Tibor Horváth.
To understand this requires knowledge of how lightning 'moves'. As the step leader of a lightning
bolt jumps toward the ground, it steps toward the grounded objects nearest its path. The
maximum distance that each step may travel is called the ’ ’’ and is proportional to
the 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 the
ground.

Electricity travels mostly along the path of least resistance, so an object outside the critical
distance 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 by
imagining a leader's potential paths as a sphere that travels from the cloud to the ground. For
lightning protection, it suffices to consider all possible spheres as they touch potential strike
points. To determine strike points, consider a sphere rolling over the terrain. At each point, we

cr
‘
are simulating a potential leader position. Lightning is most likely to strike where the sphere
touches 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 a
structure. A weak point in most lightning diversion systems is in transporting the captured
discharge from the lightning rod to the ground, though. Lightning rods are typically installed
around the perimeter of flat roofs, or along the peaks of sloped roofs at intervals of 6.1 m or 7.6
m, 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 less
in a rectangular grid pattern.

.'  ‘ ‘‘

A controversy over the assortment of operation theories dates back to the 1700s, when Franklin
himself stated that his lightning protectors protected buildings by dissipating electric charge. He
later retracted the statement, stating that the device's exact mode of operation was something of a
mystery at that point. Diversion is a misnomer; no modern systems are claimed to divert
anything, but rather to intercept the charge that terminates on a structure and carry it to the
ground. 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 50
microseconds). If the same energy could be released slowly over a period of many seconds or
minutes, the current flow would be in milliamperes or a few amperes at most. This is the intent
of charge dissipation.

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

Lightning strikes to a metallic structure can vary from leaving no evidence excepting perhaps a
small 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 be
visually confirmed, and the random behavior of lightning renders such observations difficult.
The research situation is improving somewhat, however. There are also inventors working on
this problem, such as through a lightning rocket. While controlled experiments may be off in the
future, very good data is being obtained through techniques which use radio receivers that watch
for the characteristic electrical 'signature' of lightning strikes using fixed directional antennas.
Through accurate timing and triangulation techniques, lightning strikes can be located with great
precision, so strikes on specific objects often can be confirmed with confidence.

The introduction of lightning protection systems into standards allowed various manufactures to
develop protector systems to a multitude of specifications and there are various lightning rod
standards. The NFPA's independent third party panel found that "the [Early Streamer Emission]
lightning protection technology appears to be technically sound" and that there was an "adequate

c^
‘
theoretical basis for the [Early Streamer Emission] air terminal concept and design from a
physical viewpoint". (Bryan, 1999) The same panel also concluded that "the recommended
[NFPA 780 standard] lightning protection system has never been scientifically or technically
validated and the Franklin rod air terminals have not been validated in field tests under
thunderstorm conditions." In response, the American Geophysical Union concluded that "[t]he
Bryan Panel reviewed essentially none of the studies and literature on the effectiveness and
scientific basis of traditional lightning protection systems and was erroneous in its conclusion
that there was no basis for the Standard." AGU did not attempt to assess the effectiveness of any
proposed modifications to traditional systems in its report.

No major standards body, such as the NFPA or UL, has currently endorsed a device that can
prevent or reduce lightning strikes. The NFPA Standards Council, following a request for a
project to address Dissipation Array Systems and Charge Transfer Systems, denied the request to
begin forming standards on such technology (though the Council did not foreclose on future
standards development after reliable sources demonstrating the validity of the basic technology
and science were submitted). Members of the Scientific Committee of the International
Conference on Lightning Protection has issued a joint statement stating their opposition to
dissipater technology.

Various investigators believe the natural downward lightning strokes to be unpreventable. Since
most lightning protectors' ground potentials are elevated, the path distance from the source to the
elevated ground point will be shorter, creating a stronger field (measured in volts per unit
distance) and that structure will be more prone to ionization and breakdown. Scientists from the
National Lightning Safety Institute claim that these dissipation devices are nothing more than
expensive lightning protectors and that they, unlike traditional methods, are not based on
"scientifically proven and indisputable technical arguments". William Rison states that in his
opinion the underlying theory of dissipation is "scientific nonsense". According to these sources,
there is no proof that the dissipation arrangement is at all effective. According to opponents of
the dissipation technology, the various designs of dissipaters indirectly "eliminate" lightning via
the alteration of a building's shape and only have a small effect (either intended or not) because
there is no significant reduction to the susceptibility of a structure to the generation of upward
lightning strokes. Some field investigations of dissipaters show that their performance is
comparable to conventional terminals and possess no great enhancement of protection.
According to these field studies, these devices have not shown that they totally eliminated
lightning strikes.

A capacitor voltage transformer (£ ) 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 a
protective relay. In its most basic form the device consists of three parts: two capacitors across
which 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

cG
‘
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.

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

These transformers are basically used to get the incoming current on the incoming feeders. It
steps 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 can
accurately measure is "light load," or 10% of the nominal current (there are, however, special CTs

©c
‘
designed to measure accurately currents as small as 2% of the nominal current). The rating factor of a
CT is largely dependent upon ambient temperature. Most CTs have rating factors for 35 degrees Celsius
and 55 degrees Celsius. It is important to be mindful of ambient temperatures and resultant rating factors
when 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 corresponding
hysteresis curves. This is a distinct advantage over previous CTs because it increases their range of
accuracy, since the CTs are most accurate between their rated current and rating factor

Sulphur hexafluoride (SF6) is an inert, heavy gas having good dielectric and arc extinguishing
properties. The dielectric strength of the gas increases with pressure and is more than of
dielectric strength of oil at 3 kg/cm2. SF6 is now being widely used in electrical equipment like
high voltage metal enclosed cables; high voltage metal clad switchgear, capacitors, circuit
breakers, 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. 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 electronegativity, 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.

arrestors are used. The lightening arrestors do not let the lightening to fall on the station. If some

  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 the
transformer, it can give the user trouble free service throughout the expected life of equipment
which 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 instructions
provided by the manufacture.

It is a device that transfers electrical energy from one circuit to another through inductively
coupled conductors ² the transformer's coils. Except for air-core transformers, the conductors
are 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 magnetic


‘
field in the core (or cores) of the transformer. This varying magnetic field induces a varying
electromotive force (EMF) or "voltage" in the "secondary" winding. This effect is called mutual
induction.

If a load is connected to the secondary, an electric current will flow in the secondary winding
and electrical energy will flow from the primary circuit through the transformer to the load. In an
ideal transformer, the induced voltage in the secondary winding (× ) is in proportion to the
primary voltage (×), and is given by the ratio of the number of turns in the secondary to the
number 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 making  greater than , or "stepped
down" by making  less than .

Transformers come in a range of sizes from a thumbnail-sized coupling transformer hidden


inside a stage microphone to huge units weighing hundreds of tons used to interconnect portions
of national power grids. All operate with the same basic principles, although the range of designs
is wide. While new technologies have eliminated the need for transformers in some electronic
circuits, transformers are still found in nearly all electronic devices designed for household
("mains") voltage. Transformers are essential for high voltage power transmission, which makes
long distance transmission economically practical.

The transformer is based on two


principles: firstly, that an electric current can produce a magnetic field (electromagnetism) and

c
‘
secondly that a changing magnetic field within a coil of wire induces a voltage across the ends of
the coil (electromagnetic induction). Changing the current in the primary coil changes the
magnetic flux that is developed. The changing magnetic flux induces a voltage in the secondary
coil.

An

ideal transformer.

An ideal transformer is shown in the adjacent figure. Current passing through the primary coil
creates a magnetic field. The primary and secondary coils are wrapped around a core of very
high magnetic permeability, such as iron, so that most of the magnetic flux passes through both
primary and secondary coils.

"  ‘#‘

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

where × is the instantaneous voltage,  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
strength  and the area  through which it cuts. The area is constant, being equal to the cross-
sectional area of the transformer core, whereas the magnetic field varies with time according to
the excitation of the primary. Since the same magnetic flux passes through both the primary and


‘
secondary coils in an ideal transformer, the instantaneous voltage across the primary winding
equals

Taking the ratio of the two equations for × and × gives the basic equation for stepping up or
stepping down the voltage

" ‘ #‘4  ‘

The ideal transformer as a circuit element

If the secondary coil is attached to a load that allows


current to flow, electrical power is transmitted 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 field and into the
secondary circuit. If this condition is met, the incoming electric power
must equal the outgoing power.

incoming = × = outgoing =  ×

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 in
one circuit is transformed by the 
 of the turns ratio. For example, if an impedance is
attached 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
impedance  of the primary circuit appears to the secondary to be .

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

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

The changing magnetic field induces an electromotive force (EMF) across each winding. Since
the ideal windings have no impedance, they have no associated voltage drop, and so the voltages
VP 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 be
such that it will oppose development of any such change in magnetic field.

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 to padlock such that inadvertent
operation is not possible . In some designs the isolator switch has the additional ability to earth
the 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 be
isolated. Major difference between isolator and circuit breaker is that isolator is an off-load
device, whereas circuit breaker is an on-load device.

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 to
reactive load current, reduce kVA demand, decrease customer energy consumption, improve
voltage profile, and increase revenue. Indirectly capacitor control also results in longer
equipment lifetimes because of reduced equipment stresses. Experience shows that switched
feeder 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. The
former are caused by resistive component of the load and cannot be avoided. The latter, coming
from reactive component of the load, can be avoided (Fig. 1). Reactive losses come from circuit
capacitance (negative), and circuit inductance (positive). When a heavy inductive load is
connected to the power grid, a large positive reactive power component is added, thereby
increasing observed power load (Fig. 1). This increases losses due to reactive load current,
increases kVA demand, increases customer energy consumption, usually degrades voltage
profiles, and reduces revenue.

‘ Reactive
Compensation

When capacitors of appropriate size are


added to the grid at appropriate locations,
the above mentioned losses can be
minimized by reducing the reactive
power component in Fig. 1, thereby
reducing the observed power demand. There are many aspects to this compensation and its
effects, depending on where capacitors get to be located, their sizes, and details of the
distribution 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 as

G
‘
possible. Substation capacitors cannot do the job - the reactive load current has already heated
feeder conductors downstream from the substation. Reducing reactive current at the substation
can not recover energy losses in the feeders. Another way to minimize energy losses is to use
capacitor banks that are not too large. This makes it possible to put the banks on-line early in the
load 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 turned
on for shorter amounts of time (Fig. 2).

‘ Demand
Reduction

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

‘
Voltage Profile

Distribution feeder demand capacity is usually limited by voltage drop along the line. The
customer service entrance voltage must be stable, usually ±5% to ±10%. The feeder voltage
profile can be µflattened¶ by connecting large capacity banks to the grid. Several benefits become
available: The kVA demand can be increased to arrive at the original voltage drop (this is
equivalent to releasing feeder demand), the substation voltage can be lowered to reduce peak
demand and save energy, or the service entrance voltage can be allowed to increase thereby
increasing 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 should
be two-thirds of the heavy load kVAr as measured at the substation, and the bank should be

0
‘
located two-thirds the length of the feeder from the substation. If the objective is voltage control
the bank should be farther from the substation.

With several banks on a uniformly loaded feeder, the total capacitor kVAr can more closely
match the total load kVAr. Depending on the type of the switching control used, multiple banks
on a feeder can lead to µpumping¶ 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 the
reactive load current, located as close to each load as possible (Fig. 3).

VAr control‘
is the natural
means to
control

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

Current control‘is not as efficient as VAr control because it responds to total line current, and
assumptions 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 and
cause instability from highly leading currents. Voltage control requires no current sensors.

Temperature control‘is based on assumptions about load characteristics. Control effectiveness


depends on how well load characteristics are know. Not useful in cases where those
characteristics change often. Temperature control does not require any current sensors.

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

0c
‘
Power factor control‘is 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 control‘using various above methods is usually the best choice. If enough current,
and/or other sensors are available, a centrally managed computerized capacitor control system
taking into account the variety of available input parameters can be most effective, though
expensive to implement.

The line isolator with earth switch is to isolate the extra high voltage through the feeders going

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

The Bhinmal substation has six output feeders it six different places namely:
