2.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY


33 kV Bustube Sizing The bustube sizing calculations were carried out based on the following data and standards: UK Copper Development Association o Publication 22: Copper For Busbars BS 7354: 1990: Code of practice for design of high voltage open terminal stations The selected high conductivity copper bustube is 75mm diameter with 10.2mm wall thickness

Minimum 33 kV Bustube Clearances The clearances between the phases and phase to earth should be as follows as a minimum: Phase to earth minimum clearance = 500mm Phase to phase minimum clearance = 430 mm

33 kV Bustube Supports The proposed new 33 kV post insulators are longer than the existing bus supports. In order to use existing post insulator supports it will have to be verified that the existing post insulators provide adequate mechanical strength and creepage distance. It would appear that they do, but without any documentation to validate this, OES cannot approve the use of the existing post insulators. This is a descision the client will have to make. It is worth noting that Connectors and Switchgear UK, believe that these existing 33 kV post type insulators are very difficult to get hold off and delivery times could be up to 4 months. It is recommended that the bustube connections at the end of the bustube run are connected at one end at least by a flexible copper braid which consists of an adequately rated lug/ferrule connection. All clamps should preferably be made of brass or bronze. All bustube supports and clamps should be adequately rated for the following maximum fault levels at 33 kV: Peak asymmetrical current = 58 kA Rms symmetrical current = 21.33 kA

Existing 33 kV CTs The client has two options with regard to the CTs: Presently the CTs are not adequately continuoulsy rated. Also it is not known whether they are adequately short circuit rated. Replace CTs for those of an adequate rating for the new transformer Carry out detailed testing of the CTs to establish the CT characteristics, this is also important to the protection study. If the new transformer is energised using these CTs then the client must realise that the thermal withstand of the existing CTs could be exceeded, causing CT insulation breakdown and a possible system fault.

Fault Level Study Results The maximum 33 kV fault levels are: Peak asymmetrical current = 58 kA Rms symmetrical current = 21.33 kA The proposed 33 kV bustube will be adequately fault rated. Although not part of this scope of work, OES recommend that a full audit is carried out on the Tata Steel 33 kV system in order to verify that all electrical equipment is adequately fault rated in order that the requirements of the following UK statutory legislation is realised: Electricity At work Regulations 1989 It should also be verified that the arc furnace transformer secondary circuits are complaint with these regulations with respect to fault level.

Power Flow Study Results The power flow studies show there are various transformer overloads for various network operating conditions. The client should confirm the number of arc furnaces in operation per network operation configuration. See section 6.6 of this report. Although not part of this scope of work, OES recommend that a full audit is carried out on the Tata Steel 33 kV system in order to verify that all electrical equipment is adequately continuously rated for full load conditions, in order that the requirements of the following UK statutory legislation is realised: Electricity At work Regulations 1989

Protection OES recommend a protection study is carried out on the system. This will ensure that all equipment is adequately rated and complies with the following UK statutory legislation is realised: Electricity At work Regulations 1989

Power Quality Issues Due to the non linear nature of the arc furnace loads, OES recommend that a power quality study and monitoring review is carried out based on the requirements of IEC 61000.

3.0 POWER SYSTEM MODELLING


The power system studies were carried out using ETAP. This is a computer based power system simulation package based on the application of the rms phasor based approach to solve the load flow and fault level algebraic equations. Fault level calculations are based on the use of IEC 60909, which is considered the most conservative method of fault level calculation as, due to its assumptions, produces the highest fault level results. This will be used as the basis of design. Bustube sizing will be based on the results from ETAP and supporting hand calculations.

All fault impedance was considered zero, i.e. solid short circuit. 4. Presently, no data has been provided by the client for the earthing study.

5.0 DESCRIPTION OF POWER SYSTEM STUDIES


5.1 Power System Study Scenarios The power system studies were carried out for the scenarios as the Tata Steel ARC Furnace Tripping Scheme: Rotherham Works Electrical Loading and Supply Capacities, 33 kV furnace board. Based on data from Tat Steel the following operating configurations were considered: Tata Steel The furnace board and the works board are completely independent, this is because of the performance of a furnace means that we would have a lot of flicker on the works board therefore we have to have them completely independent. Tata Steel: The interconnector is currently out of action. It is normally run open. Cannot be run closed while arc furnaces running due to large voltage fluctuations in voltages. Bus section on works board can be opened so S.G.T.1A could feed the furnace board. When this was last done it was not successful as S.G.T.1A tried to pull more load and tripped the interconnector on overcurrent while furnace was in operation. There are no induction motor loads it is purely arc furnace main power load

The following scenarios were considered: Base Case: SGT1B, SGT3, SGT4 in Parallel Case 1: SGT1B, SGT3 in Parallel Case 2: SGT1B, SGT3, SGT1A in Parallel Case 3: SGT1B, SGT4 in Parallel Case 4: SGT1B, SGT4, SGT1A in Parallel Case 5: SGT3, SGT4 in Parallel Case 6: SGT3, SGT4, SGT1A in Parallel

6.0 POWER SYSTEM STUDIES SUMMARY OF RESULTS


6.1 Bustube Sizing The bustube sizing calculations were carried out based on the following data and standards: UK Copper Development Association o Publication 22: Copper For Busbars BS 7354: 1990: Code of practice for design of high voltage open terminal stations BS EN 13600: 2002 Copper and copper alloys Seamless copper tubes for electrical purposes The bustube size was selected based on the following parameters: Maximum continuous current based on 132 MVA transformer on full load (2309 A on 33 kV system) 33 kV substation ambient temperature = 40C (this is on the high side but after the site inspection it was found that the 33 kV substation was very warm) Bustube maximum temperature rise during maximum load conditions = 35C Bustube emissitivity factor = 0.1 (ability for copper to dissipate generated heat energy by radiation effect) Impact of skin effect on bustube rating (skin effect denotes the tendency of AC current to flow away from the centre of a conductor). Short circuit withstand current Appendix Four shows the standard copper bustube ratings obtained from the UK Copper Development Association. OES calculations based on the UK Copper Development Association calculation methods have found that the existing copper bustube of 50mm diameter with 10mm wall thickness is inadequately rated for the 33 kV continuous current of 2309 A for the new 132 MVA transformer. It was found that the minimum bus tube size was 70mm diameter with a 10.2 mm wall. This gave a maximum temperature rise of 76C. This size of bustube appears to be not available within the UK Copper Development Association standard tables, hence the next value of bustube of 75mm diameter with 10.2mm wall thickness was selected. The gives an indoor dc current rating of 2760 A based on 50 C temperature rise on a 40 C ambient. Applying the skin effect factor of 1.1 will increase the heat generated in the bustube by 10% as ac resistance is 110% of the dc resistance. For the same value of ac current as dc current this will give a 10% increase in heat generated during current flow through the busbar. The busbar will be able to operate for this condition. The short circuit withstand was calculated based on the equations produced by the UK Copper Development Association. It was found that the bustube is adequately rated for the bustube specified, The voltdrop across the bustube during full load conditions is not considered an issue due to the short length of the 33 kV bustube installed. In summary, the selected bustube is 75mm diameter with 10.2mm wall thickness. See Appendix Four where this is highlighted in red coloured font. The bustube has been calculated based on the maximum continuous 33 kV load current of the new 132 MVA transformer, hence the increase in bustube size with respect to the original installation. The Copper Development Association guidance notes recommend that the bustube is sized based on the maximum continuous current rating and this guidance has been duly adopted. However, the copper bustube maximum size is dictated by the heat generated and dissipated during normal load conditions. It is worth noting that the arc furnace should only operate in short time frames, which means in practice a smaller bustube could be used. However, the equations are not provided by the Copper Development Association to achieve this. If the client wishes to look at this opportunity then this would be extra work in addition to this scope of work.

6.2 Minimum Bustube Clearances The clearances between the phases and phase to earth should be as follows as a minimum: Phase to earth minimum clearance = 500mm Phase to phase minimum clearance = 430 mm It is recommended that these clearances are exceeded at all times throughout the installation. It is assumed that specific vendor equipment purchased for the project is already compatible with the correct clearances based on the standards governing its design. 6.3 33 kV Bustube Supports The existing supports are based on the use of 33 kV post insulators for indoor substations. The supports will need to be able to meet the following criteria in order to support the new bustube: Be of adequate mechanical strength to support the bustube Provide adequate creepage to maintain safe distance between the bustube and earthed steelwork supporting the post insulators. Appendix Five shows the proposed new 33 kV post insulators as provided by Connectors and Switchgear in the UK. After discussions with Connectors and Switchgear it is advisable that this 33 kV post insulator is used. Due to the thickness of the new bustube, the bustube will be adequately supported as long as the distance between brackets is less than 5m. Connectors and Switchgear can provide this information if an order is placed upon them in the future. Based on the close proximity of the existing supports, the existing support spacings are considered adequate to support the new bustube. The creepage of the new post insulators is 1200mm which is considered more than adequate for this application. The proposed new 33 kV post insulators are longer than the existing bus supports. In order to use existing post insulator supports it will have to be verified that the existing post insulators provide adequate mechanical strength and creepage distance. It would appear that they do, but without any documentation to validate this, OES cannot approve the use of the existing post insulators. This is a descision the client will have to make. It is worth noting that Connectors and Switchgear UK, believe that these existing 33 kV post type insulators are very difficult to get hold off and delivery times could be up to 4 months, if they are able to get hold of them. It is recommended that the bustube connections at the end of the bustube run are connected at one end at least by a flexible copper braid which consists of an adequately rated lug/ferrule connection. All clamps should preferably be made of brass or bronze. All bustube supports and clamps should be adequately rated for the following maximum fault levels at 33 kV: Peak asymmetrical current = 58 kA Rms symmetrical current = 21.33 kA

6.4 Existing CTs Site inspection of the CTs showed the following parameters: 2000/5 A 30 VA 1000 / 5A 30 VA 500 / 5 A 30 VA It is envisaged that the CTs are connected on the 2000 / 5 A winding. However, this needs to be assessed during future protection study work.

CTs need to be rated for the maximum continuous current that can flow on the 33 kV system (2309 A). Based on this the CTs are inadequately rated for the new transformer. The CT short circuit withstand time could not be obtained from the CT rating plate. It is unknown whether the CT is adequately rated for the short circuit currents calculated in this report. The client has two options with regard to the CTs: Replace CTs for those of an adequate rating for the new transformer Carry out detailed testing of the CTs to establish the CT characteristics, this is also important to the protection study. If the new transformer is energised using these CTs then the client must realise that the thermal withstand of the existing CTs could be exceeded, causing CT insulation breakdown and a possible system fault.

6.5 Fault Study Results Tables 1 7 show the fault level results. Full detailed reports are given in Appendix Three of this document. It can be seen that the following Tata Steel electrical network operating configurations give the maximum fault conditions on the network. Table 1: Base Case: SGT1B, SGT3, SGT4 in Parallel Table 7: Case 6: SGT3, SGT4, SGT1A in Parallel It can be seen that the maximum fault levels on the 33 kV system are: Peak asymmetrical current = 58 kA Rms symmetrical current = 21.33 kA It can be seen that the maximum fault levels on the arc furnace transformer secondary are: Peak asymmetrical current = 647 kA Rms symmetrical current = 240 kA In order to comply with the Electricity At work Regulations 1989, the client needs to verify that all electrical equipment on their 33 kV system and the arc furnace transformer secondary system is compliant with respect to fault level rating.

6.6 Power Flow Study Results Tables 8 14 show the power flow results. Full detailed reports are given in Appendix Two of this document. Voltage profiles and equipment power flows are given for the network configurations as described in section 5.1 of this report. The 33 kV switchboard voltage is assumed to be at 1 pu based on the grid transformer automatic voltage control. The power flow results are described below: Table 8/8.1: Base Case: SGT1B, SGT3, SGT4 in Parallel From Table 8.1, it can be seen that the transformer SGT1B is overloaded at 126 %. This is assumed to be due to the operation of the transformer tap changer control scheme. If there is a circulating current automatic voltage control scheme, then any circulating current should be eliminated. It is understood that this is an NGC issue. Table 9/9.1: Case 1: SGT1B, SGT3 in Parallel From Table 9.1, it can be seen that the transformer SGT1B and SGT3 are overloaded. This is based on all arc furnaces running. The client should confirm the loading scenario for this case.

Table 10/10.1: Case 2: SGT1B, SGT3, SGT1A in Parallel From Table 10.1, it can be seen that the transformer SGT1B and SGT 1A are overloaded. This is assumed to be due to the operation of the transformer tap changer control scheme. If there is a circulating current automatic voltage control scheme, then any circulating current should be eliminated. It is understood that this is an NGC issue. Table 11/11.1: Case 3: SGT1B, SGT4 in Parallel From Table 11.1, it can be seen that the transformer SGT1B and SGT4 are overloaded. This is based on all arc furnaces running. The client should confirm the loading scenario for this case. Table 12/21.1: Case 4: SGT1B, SGT4, SGT1A in Parallel From Table 12.1, it can be seen that the transformer SGT1B and SGT 1A are overloaded. This is assumed to be due to the operation of the transformer tap changer control scheme. If there is a circulating current automatic voltage control scheme, then any circulating current should be eliminated. It is understood that this is an NGC issue. Table 13/13.1: Case 5: SGT3, SGT4 in Parallel From Table 13.1, it can be seen that the transformer SGT3 and SGT4 are overloaded. This is based on all arc furnaces running. The client should confirm the loading scenario for this case. Table 14/14.1: Case 6: SGT3, SGT4, SGT1A in Parallel From Table 14.1, it can be seen that the transformer SGT 1A is overloaded. This is assumed to be due to the operation of the transformer tap changer control scheme. If there is a circulating current automatic voltage control scheme, then any circulating current should be eliminated. It is understood that this is an NGC issue.
