L&T- Power
Electrical System for a Power Station can be broadly classified as:
Main Power SystemThe Main power system deals with Generation of Power and stepping it up to a Extra High Voltage (EHV) level. It also deals with Unit start-up power.
Plant Auxiliary Distribution SystemThe Auxiliary distribution system deals with supply and distribution of power to various auxiliaries (e.g. boiler feed pump, Cooling water pumps etc) within the station boundary, necessary for keeping the Unit up and running.
Power Evacuation SystemPower evacuation system deals with receipt of power from Station at EHV level, Export/Import of Power to the Grid and Deriving Unit start-up power.

Main Power System
L&T- Power Overview – Main Power System
Main Power System deals with Generation of Power and stepping-up this generated power to the evacuation voltage
For a 800MW Unit, power generated at 24kV and transmitted to the Generator Transformer (GT) thru Isolated Phase Bus Duct (IPBD)
Main route of IPBD is provided with taps to feed the plant unit auxiliaries thru Unit transformers (UTs)
Main Power system also deals with Unit start-up
For this mainly two schemes exists, Station transformer scheme and Generator Circuit Breaker (GCB) Scheme.
L&T- Power
Start-up power derived from Grid thru Station transformer.
Unit is started by supplying power to the necessary Turbine & Boiler auxiliaries thru Station to Unit interconnector
After start-up, unit is synchronized to the grid at EHV breaker in switchyard. Synchronization achieved thru automatic synchronizing equipment – normally a part of turbine control equipment
After synchronization with grid, unit load are transferred to the UT by paralleling via 11 kV interconnector
Unit supplies power to unit auxiliaries through UTs. Power is evacuated through GT.
HV side of ST – 132 kV, 220 kV, 400 kV LV side of ST – 11 kV On load Tap Changer is required
Station Transformer (ST) scheme
L&T- Power Station Transformer scheme
L&T- Power Generator Circuit Breaker (GCB) scheme
L&T- Power
• A switching device (GCB) introduced between generator and GT
• Start-up power is derived from Grid by back charging GT and UT and keeping GCB open
• Unit is started by supplying power to the necessary Turbine & Boiler auxiliaries
• After start-up, generator is synchronized with the grid thru GCB
• Once synchronized, unit supplies power to auxiliaries through UTs. Power is evacuated through GT.
HV side of UT – 24 kV LV side of ST – 11 kV
This scheme is not widely used for large thermal power plants, However this scheme is very popular for Combined cycle plants

L&T- Power Comparison between Outdoor AIS and GIS type Switchyard
Parameters Outdoor AIS Indoor GIS
Layout Occupies large space.
Hence suitable for plants in remote areas.
Occupies less than 40% space as compared to AIS. Hence suitable for urban area where land is at premium.
Civil & Structural aspects
Involves construction of large number of small foundations over a vast area, and vast length of small cable trenches
Involves construction of a GIS building
Environmental Considerations
Noise and electromagnetic radiation emanating from EHV lines is a cause of concern
Not a concern, as all the EHV conductors are enclosed
Overall Economics Excluding land cost, Initial capital cost is substantially less as compared to GIS.
Approximately 2.5 to 3 times costlier than AIS of similar capacity, for 220kV and 400kV level
L&T- Power
