Sizing Calculation
1.0 Intent
Intent for this document is to calculate UAT (unit auxiliary transformer) and UST (unit station transformer) LV
side current transformer sizes (and various parameters) being adapted in the proposed power project.

3.0 System description

The project involves two identical steam turbine generator units rated for 150MW, 15.75kV, 3-ph, 50Hz, 0.8pf
each. Evacuation of generated electric power is envisaged at 400kV by interconnecting the power plant to
RSEB/ PGCIL 400kV grid.
6.6kV and 415V plant unit loads shall be fed from UAT-1 for unit 1 and UAT-2 for unit 2. UATs shall be directly connected to respective generator terminals through isolated phase busduct (IPBD). LV side (6.6kV) of
UATs shall be connected to 6.6kV unit auxiliary switchgear through segregated phase busduct (SPBD).
6.6kV and 415V common plant station loads shall be fed from UST-1 and UST-2. USTs shall be directly connected to respective generator terminals through isolated phase busduct (IPBD). LV side (6.6kV) of USTs
shall be connected to 6.6kV unit station switchgear through segregated phase busduct (SPBD).
LV neutral of all UATs/ USTs shall be grounded through neutral grounding resistor (NGR) by cable.
