Introduction
The requirements of safety, minimisation of damage to faulted plant, minimisation of consequential damage to healthy
plant and maintenance of a stable and secure supply of electricity are paramount to all protection designs.
A
generator may be exposed to three types of occurrence
which require protection schemes to operate effectively and
efficiently but in vastly different time frames.
◊ Generator Fault : This requires instantaneous tripping of
the generator to minimise the damage caused.
Generator multiphase fault levels may exceed 100kA,
whereas, via high resistance earthing techniques, the
same generator may have an earth fault level of only a
few amperes.
Course Content
1. High Impedance Differential Protection
- Application to Generators, Transformers and
Busbars
●
●
●
●
◊ Generator Event : This is an event local to the generator
●
which will not immediately cause damage but will
eventually do so unless rectified. Protection initiates an
alarm rapidly to alert the operator and to allow
intervention and, if this is unsuccessful, finally tripping
before actual generator damage occurs.
●
●
◊ External Event : This is a transmission system event
which will not immediately cause damage to the
generator and can be rectified by operator intervention.
An alarm is generated rapidly to alert the operator of the
condition, followed by tripping as necessary if appropriate
action is not taken or is not successful. In particular, note
that such events affect every generator within a particular
power station, and even may affect generators over a
wide area. Hence tripping must be delayed as long as
possible to avoid widespread system shut-downs, but
must nevertheless still provide protection for the affected
generating plant.
In this seminar we will consider the application of protection
to generators, considering the three occurrences mentioned
above. This will facilitate an appreciation of generator
protection, the coordination aspects of these protection
schemes, and the information required to determine
protection settings.
2. Transformer Protection
●
●
●
But, beyond the generator itself, the power station engineers
and technicians need an intimate understanding of the
protection schemes associated with the remaining plant,
including busbars, transformers and the many large induction
motors.
Thus the task, not only for the protection engineer, but for all
engineers and technicians associated with the power station,
is to ensure that planning, design, coordination,
implementation, commissioning, operation and maintenance
of protection systems optimises both the dependability and
security of these schemes.
●
What You Will Learn?
●
This 2-day seminar focuses on the principles of generator
and power station protection schemes, including their
application to generator faults, generator events, external
power system events, and power station motor, busbar and
transformer faults.
Delegates will learn the principles of power station protection
schemes, the art of scheme selection, and the generic
processes associated with determination of optimal settings
and configurations for the protection relays and schemes
associated with power station generators, motors, busbars
and transformers.
