SubstationThere are four major types of electric substations:
Switchyard at a generating station:
These facilities connect the generators to the utility grid and also provide off-site power to the plant.
Customer Substation:
Functions as the main source of electric power supply for one (or more) business customers. The technical requirements and the business case for this type of facility depend highly on the
customer’s requirements.

SubstationSwitching Substation:
Facilitate the transfer of bulk power across the network. Their feeders typically originate from generating switchyards. They enable the transmission of large blocks of energy from the generators to the load centers.
Distribution Substation:
Provide the distribution circuits that directly supply most electric customers.

SCADA & CommunicationPLC is the superimposition of various signals (ie. data, voice, Fax etc.) on the power line at different frequencies thus relying on the power line as the carrier of the signals.
Functions:
Provides means of high speed fault clearing through use of communication schemes to confirm faulted line section.
Aids in implementation of breaker failure schemes
Aids in remote control requirements
Goal:
To transmit a signal of high quality to the receiving end such that the receiver can interpret the signal.

![Page 41: PRESENTATION ON SUBSTATION DESIGN FRANCIS ARTHUR](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061506/56649da35503460f94a90153/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
SCADA & Communication Line Traps
Directs the carrier signal off the substation bus towards the remote line terminal.
Presents a high impedance path for the carrier energy towards the bus thus directing onto the remote line terminal.
The coil of the line trap presents a low impedance path to the power frequency.

SCADA & Communication
RTU
A remote terminal unit (RTU) is a microprocessor-controlled electronic device that interfaces objects in the physical world to a distributed control system or SCADA (supervisory control and data acquisition) system by transmitting telemetry data to a master system, and by using messages from the master supervisory system to control connected objects.

Substation GroundingSubstation grounding is a means of channeling excessive fault currents to ground with the view to preventing damage to equipment and protecting personnel from being subjected to unsafe potentials.
It is achieved with a mat made up of horizontal interconnected bare conductors and ground rods to which all equipment structures are bonded.
The grounding system includes all of the interconnected grounding facilities in the substation area, including the ground grid, overhead ground wires, neutral conductors, underground cables, iron rods in foundations etc.

Substation Grounding
Reasons for Grounding
It provides a means of dissipating electric current into the earth without exceeding the operating limits of the equipment.
It provides a safe environment to protect personnel in the vicinity of grounded facilities from the dangers of electric shock under fault conditions.
![Page 46: PRESENTATION ON SUBSTATION DESIGN FRANCIS ARTHUR](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061506/56649da35503460f94a90153/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Substation Grounding Circumstances for Human Electric Shock
Relatively high fault current to ground in relation to the area of the grounding system and its resistance to remote earth.
Soil resistivity and distribution of ground currents such that high potential gradients may occur at points at the earth surface.
Presence of a person at such a point, time, and position that the body is bridging two points of high potential difference.
Absence of sufficient contact resistance or other series resistance to limit current through the body to a safe value under the above circumstances.
Duration of the fault and body contact and, hence, of the flow of current through a human body for a sufficient time to cause harm at the given current intensity.

Substation Grounding The Design Problem?
To provide a safe condition for personnel within and around the substation area by limiting voltages to safe values.
To provide an adequate earthing system at minimum cost.
