Experiment#1
Introduction to Siemens PLCs
Object:
 To introduce the students to Siemens PLCs programming and to step 7

software tools.
 To be familiar with Siemens PLCs timers and counters.
 To learn how to program using Statement List programming.
Pre lab:
Study the theory behind the Siemens PLCs
Equipments Required:
SIMATIC C7-621, SIMATIC S5-100U, PG 605U Programmer, STEP 7 programming
software.
Procedure:
Create new step 7 software project using SIMATIC Manager program.
Select the C7-621 hardware from SIMATIC 300>>C7.
From the Blocks folder, open the organization block OB1.
[A]: Programming with Symbols

Absolute Addresses
Every input and output has an absolute address predefined by the hardware
configuration. This address is specified directly; that is, absolutely. The absolute
address can be replaced by any symbolic name you choose.
Symbolic Programming
In the symbol table, you assign a symbolic name and the data type to all the absolute
addresses which you will address later on in your program; for example, for input I
0.1 the symbolic name Key 1. These names apply to all parts of the program and are
known as global variables.
 Open the symbol table by selecting (Options >> Symbol table) from the menu
bar, or by pressing (Ctrl+Alt+T) on the keyboard.

ENEE512
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Fill the symbol table as follows:

Table 1.1
 Save the symbol table and Exit from the symbol editor.
 To change from absolute addressing to symbolic addressing, select the menu
item (View>>Display>>Symbolic Representation) or press (Ctrl+Q) on the
keyboard.
Note: We refer to the “result of logic operation” By RLO.
[B]: Set & Reset Coil

The Set Coil instruction is executed only if the RLO = 1. If the RLO = 1, this
instruction sets its specified address to 1. If the RLO = 0, the instruction has no effect
on the specified address. The address remains unchanged.
The Reset Coil instruction is executed only if the RLO = 1. If the RLO = 1, this
instruction resets its specified address to 0. If the RLO = 0, the instruction has no
effect on its specified address. The address remains unchanged.
Q1) What is the difference between output coil and set coil instructions?
 Create the following ladder diagram in your project, and download it to the PLC
SIMATIC C7-621, then test its operation.

O I 0.3
R Q 1.0
[C]: PLC Timers

Timers have an area reserved for them in the memory of your CPU. This memory area
reserves one 16-bit word for each timer address. The ladder logic instruction set
supports 256 timers.
(SD) (On Delay Timer Coil) starts the specified timer with the <time value> if there
is a positive edge on the RLO state. The signal state of the timer is "1" when the <time
value> has elapsed without error and the RLO is still "1". When the RLO changes
from "1" to "0" while the timer is running, the timer is reset. In this case, a scan for
"1" always produces the result "0."
 Open the timer's folder in the program elements, and check out the
different types of timers. Mark each timer and press F1 to display the
help to that timer.
Q2) From the help, explain the operation of the SP timer.

Experiment # 3
POWER-FACTOR IMPROVEMENT
Object:
To study and examine ways of improving the power-factor of single and 3-phase
induction motors, using capacitors.
Equipment Required:
FH80, FH90.
Voltmeter, Ammeter, Wattmeter.
Capacitors.
Theory:
Power-factor fundamentals:
The usual definition of power factor based on the fact that there are two types of
current in an AC circuit is particularly helpful in understanding the effect of power
factor on system operation and understanding capacitor applications.
Although the following discussion on fundamentals is written around the use of
capacitors because they generally are the most practical and economical means for
improving the PF, these fundamentals also apply to other methods, such as
synchronous motors and condensers.
The current required by induction motors, transformers, fluorescent lights, induction
heating furnaces, resistance welders, etc., may be considered to be made up of two
separate kinds of current: magnetizing current and power-producing current.
Some loads, such as incandescent lights, require only power-producing current.
Power-producing current (or working current) is that current which is converted by

the equipment into useful work such as turning a lathe, making a weld, or pumping
water. The unit of measurement of power produced is the kilowatt (kW).
Magnetizing current (also known as wattles, reactive, or nonworking current) is that

current which is required to produce the flux necessary to the operation of induction
devices. Without magnetizing current, energy could not flow through the core of a
22
ENEE512
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
transformer or across the air gap of an induction motor. The unit of measurement of
magnetizing volt-amperes is the kilovar (kVAR).
Total current is the current that is read on an ammeter in the circuit. It is generally
made up of both magnetizing and power-producing currents. The unit of measurement
of total volt-amperes or "apparent power" is the kilovolt-ampere (kVA).
Most AC power systems require both kilowatts and kilovars.
The following useful formulas apply when kW, kVAR, and kVA are substituted for
their respective currents:
(Kva)2 = (Kw)2 + (Kvar)2
(Kw)2 = (Kva)2 - (Kvar)2
(Kvar)2 = (Kva)2 - (Kw)2
KW Current 2 amp
KVAR
Current
Total
Current
2amp
2.83 amps
Figure 3.1: Diagram showing component current in AC circuit.
What is power-factor:
Power factor may be expressed as the ratio of power-producing current in a circuit to

the total current in that circuit. Another definition of power factor, which is generally
more useful, is the ratio of kW or working power to the total kVA or apparent power.
Thus,
PF = kW/kVA
kW = kVA * PF
kVA = kW/PF
Stated another way, the power factor is that factor by which the apparent power must
be multiplied in order to obtain the working power.
How to improve power factor
23
ENEE512
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When the kilovar current in a circuit is reduced, the total current is reduced. If the
kilowatt current does not change, as is usually true, the power factor will improve as
kilovar current is reduced. When the kilovar current becomes zero, all the current is
kilowatt current and therefore the power factor will be 1.0 (unity) or 100%. This could
be done by installing capacitors to supply the load kilovar requirements.
Procedure:
I. Single-phase induction motor.
1. Using FH80, connect the circuit as in fig.(2).

speed, input power, voltage, and current. Tabulate your results and
complete table 3.1. Plot these data [speed and power factor against
torque].
3. Now connect the capacitor bank across the terminals of the motor as in
figure 3.3.

Questions:
Single-phase induction motor
1. Complete the VI and PF columns in table(1), and plot on the same

graph the PF against torque for each value of correction capacitor,
including zero capacitance.
2. complete the Q column in table(1), using the values calculated in the
previous question as follows:
Q2 = (VI)2 – (Pin)2
Qc = - V2 (2*f* c)
Add the appropriate negative value to the uncorrected average Q
reading calculated earlier. The results should agree fairly closely with
the average Q found experimentally with the used corrective capacitor.

Experiment #4
Introduction to Power World Simulator
Part 1:
Creating a New Case

This procedure describes how to create a simple power system model using Power
World Simulator.
To begin, double-click on the Power World Simulator icon. This starts Simulator.
Simulator is used to create new cases, modify existing cases, and (of course) simulate
power systems. In this example, we will build a new case from scratch.
To create a new case, select the File > New Case from the main menu, or click the
open Simulation Case button on the File Palette. The screen background will turn
white, the default background color for new Power World online diagram. Online
diagrams are used in power system analysis to represent the actual three-phase power
system using a single line to represent each three-phase device.
Inserting a Bus
The most important component of the power system model is the bus. Buses are
used to represent junction points in the power system where a number of devices are
connected together. In building a power system model using Simulator, you will draw
buses onto the oneline diagram, attach devices such as generators and loads to the
buses, and connect different buses together with transmission lines and transformers.
Inserting buses on the oneline diagram is very easy:
Select Insert > Bus from the main menu, or select the Bus button on the Insert Palette.
This prepares Simulator to insert a new bus.
Left-click on the oneline background at the location where you want to place the new
bus. This invokes the Bus Option Dialog.
Use the Bus Option Dialog Box to specify the name, size, orientation, area, zone, and
nominal voltage of the bus, as well as the load and shunt compensation connected to
it.
27
ENEE512
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Click OK on the Bus Option Dialog to finish creating the bus and to close the dialog.
After the dialog box closes, the new bus will appear on the oneline at the location you
specified.
For example, let‟s add a bus to the new case. Select Insert > Bus from the main
menu and click somewhere in the middle of the display. The Bus Options Dialog will
open, inviting you to enter information about the bus. The Bus Number fields will
automatically display „1‟. Simulator requires that each bus have a unique number.
For convenience, we will just accept the default value. In the Bus Name field, enter a
name for the bus with up to eight characters. For this example, enter ONE. Next,
check the System Slack Bus field, which is located toward the bottom of the Bus
Information Tab. The Slack Bus is a modeling construct that ensures that the power
system has enough generation to meet the load. In other words, the slack bus "picks
up the slack" caused by system losses. For now, we will just leave the remainder of
the fields with their default values. Click on the OK button at the bottom of the dialog
to insert the bus. You should now see a single horizontal line in the middle of the
oneline; this is your first bus.
Inserting a Generator
Next we are going to attach a generator to the bus. Generators may be inserted by
following a procedure that is very similar to the one used for inserting a bus:
Select Insert > Generator from the main menu, or click the Generator button on the
Insert Palette.
Left-click the bus on the oneline diagram to which you want to attach the generator.
This brings up the Generator Option Dialog.
Using the Generator Option Dialog, specify the new generator ‟ s unit identifier,
display size, orientation, MW output and limits, reactive power limits, setpoint
voltage, and cost model.
Select the orientation of the generator; this is the direction in which the generator will
extend from the bus.
28
ENEE512
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Click OK on the Generator Option Dialog to finish creating the generator and to close
the dialog. After the dialog box closes, the new generator will appear on the oneline
attached to the bus on which you clicked in step 2.
Check the Anchored checkbox so that when you move the bus around the oneline the
generator will move with it.
Follow this procedure to attach a generator to the slack bus, bus 1. When the
generator option dialog box appears, simply accept the default fields.
Saving the Case
To save the work that we have done so far, select File > Save Case from the main
menu, or click on the Save Case button. Before the case is saved, Simulator
validates the case to make sure that it does not contain any errors. Results from this
validation are displayed in the Message Log display, usually shown in the lower right-
hand corner of the display. If the log is not visible, simply click the Log button on
the Program Palette. Since we have not yet named the case, the Save As dialog is
displayed. Enter the filename and select OK. By default the case is saved using the
Power World Binary format (*.pwb). When saving the case in the future, you will
not have to reenter its name. Simulator also asks you to supply a name for saving the
oneline diagram we have been drawing. The oneline diagram files have a default
extension of *.pwd, which identifies them as Power World Display files. Supply the
same name as you gave to the case. Note that, because the case and the oneline are
stored in separate files, multiple onelines can be assigned to the same case, and the
same oneline can be used by many cases.
Entering a Second Bus with Load

To enter the second bus, select Insert > Bus from the main menu or click the Bus
button on the Insert Palette. Then click on the oneline diagram somewhere to the
right of the first bus. The Bus Options Dialog will open .Leave the bus number at the
default value of 2, and enter the name TWO for the bus. We also want to model a 200
MW, 100 MVR load at the bus. To accomplish this, switch to Attached Devices tab
and, under the Load Summary Information heading, click the button labeled Add or

Edit Bus Load. Enter 200 in the MW Value field and 100 in the Mvar Value field.
Click OK to close the load dialog. Click on the OK button at the bottom of the dialog
to insert the bus.
At this point, the oneline diagram does not show the load at bus 2, even though it is
represented in the power system model (you can confirm this by right-clicking on bus
2, selecting Bus Information Dialog from the resulting local menu, and inspecting the
Load Summary Information fields again). To draw the load on the oneline diagram,
select Insert > Load from the main menu, or select the Load button on the Insert
Palette. Now, left-click the mouse near the right edge of this bus. You should
immediately see the Load Options dialog box , whose Constant Power MW and MVR
fields confirm that the load is 200 MW and 100 MVR. In addition to constant power
loads, Simulator also allows the modeling of voltage dependent load.
The Orientation field determines the orientation of the symbol when it is drawn on
the oneline. Check the Up entry to make the load point up. Also, verify that the
anchored box is checked. By anchoring the load to the bus, the load moves anytime
you move the bus. Then click on the OK button to insert the load. A circuit breaker
symbol is automatically included with each load.
Now, try moving bus 2. To do this click somewhere on the bus (not on the load).
Holding down the left mouse, move the bus (this is known as "dragging"). The load
should move as well, because it is anchored. To reposition the load on the bus, simply
click on the load, and then drag it (holding the left button down) to a new position on
the bus.
Inserting a Transmission Line

To connect the two buses together, we will now insert a transmission line between
them. The procedure for inserting a transmission line involves the following steps:
Select Insert > Transmission Line from the main menu, or click the Transmission Line
button on the Insert Palette.
Left-click at the point where you want the new line to originate. This point is usually
located on one of the proposed line‟s terminal buses.
30
ENEE512
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Without holding down the mouse button, drag the mouse. You will notice that a line
segment connected to the point of origin will follow your mouse movements.
Transmission lines and transformers are drawn as a series of line segments. To
terminate a line segment, simply click the left mouse button. To begin drawing the
next line segment, simply move the mouse again. Each time you click the mouse to
terminate a line segment; a new vertex is defined for the line. These vertices may
later be moved or deleted to reshape the line. To create curved lines, hold the left
mouse button down while dragging.
To terminate the final line segment comprising the line (and thus conclude drawing
the line), double click the left mouse button at the point where the line should
terminate. The termination point is usually the line‟s other terminal bus. The
Transmission Line/Transformer Dialog will appear.
Specify the new line‟s parameters using the Transmission Line Dialog and click OK.
The new transmission line will appear on the oneline.
We will now insert a transmission line between buses 1 and 2. Select Insert >
Transmission Line from the main menu, and click at the point on bus 1 at which you
would like the line to start. This begins the process of inserting the line. Move the
cursor upwards a short distance and then click the left mouse button to terminate the
first segment. Then move the mouse horizontally until the cursor is above bus two and
click the left mouse button to define the second segment. Finally, move the cursor
down to the location on bus 2 where you would like to attach the line and double-
click. You should immediately see the Transmission Line/Transformer Dialog. The
dialog should already contain a 1 in the From Bus Number field and a 2 in the To
Bus Number Field. The Resistance, Reactance, and Capacitance fields are used to
enter the per unit parameters associated with the line. The Capacitance field contains
the total per unit charging capacitance for the line. Enter a 0.02 in the Resistance
field, 0.08 in the Reactance field and 0.1 in the Capacitance field. The MVA Rating
field contains the MVA rating for the line; enter a value of 1000.
31
ENEE512
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If the dialog did not contain a „1‟ in the From Bus Number field and/or a „2‟ in the To
Bus Number field, you probably did not have the cursor directly on the bus when you
were drawing the line. Simply enter the correct bus numbers.
Finally, click the OK button to insert the transmission line.
By default, the transmission line is anchored to both terminal buses. If you try to
move bus 2, the transmission line should move with it.
Inserting a Line Flow Pie Chart on a Transmission Line

When the line is drawn it automatically has a line flow pie chart included. You can
include additional line flow pie charts by clicking on the Line Flow Pie Chart button
and then clicking near a line. The Line/Transformer Flow Pie Chart dialog box
appears; make sure that the From Bus and To Bus have the correct numbers that the
MVA rating is correct, and that Anchored is checked; you may change the size of the
pie chart by typing in a value or using the arrows.
Color and behavior of pie charts are set in the Oneline Display Options; right-click
anywhere in the background of the oneline, select Oneline Display Options from the
pop-up menu, and then select the Pie Charts tab.
Inserting Circuit Breakers
We will now place circuit breakers on the line. (If the line already has circuit
breakers at each end, then Simulator has been instructed to insert circuit breakers
automatically. You can configure this option from the Default Drawing Options
Dialog). Circuit breakers are used to control the status of the line. Click somewhere
on the line near bus 1. Then select Insert > Circuit Breaker from the main menu, or
select the Circuit Breaker button and then click on the line near bus 1. You should
immediately see the Circuit Breaker Options dialog with the From Bus and To Bus
fields correctly set to „ 1 ‟ and „ 2 ‟ . If they are „0‟, enter the correct value. Set the
Size field to „1‟ (you can either enter a 1, or use the spin arrows in change the value).
Click the OK button to insert the circuit breaker.
32
ENEE512
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In Simulator, the location of the circuit breaker does not matter, because changing the
status of the circuit breaker changes the status of the entire line. However, since most
transmission lines have circuit breakers at each end, we will also place a circuit
breaker near bus 2. To accomplish this, just repeat the above process near bus 2. Save
your case.
Inserting Text, Bus and Line Fields

We are almost ready to run our FIRST case. However, before we do that, we are
going to enter a few informational fields directly on the oneline so that we can see
what is going on in the system more easily. First, we will add a title to the diagram.
Select Insert, Text from the main menu to bring up the Text Object Dialog. Type the
string “First Case and click OK. To make the text look
more like a title, we will do some quick formatting. Select Format, Font to change
the font. This displays the Font Tab of the Format Selection Dialog. Make the font
size 26, and change the font color blue. To change the text background color, select
Format, Line/Fill, this summons the Line/Fill Options Tab of the Format Selection
Dialog. Check the Use Background Fill box to give the text a white background, and
then click OK. Finally, if you would like to move the text, simply left click on it and
drag it to the new location.
Next, we will add several fields that display bus-related quantities. To add fields to
the display of a particular bus, follow this procedure:
Right-click on the bus to bring up the bus‟ local menu.

Select Add New Fields Around Bus from the local menu. This opens the Insert Bus
Fields Dialog.
Use the Insert Bus Fields Dialog to designate the fields to add. You may add up to 8
fields per bus.
Click OK. The specified bus fields will be added to the oneline diagram.
For this example, we will add a Name, Bus Voltage Magnitude, Actual Gen MW, and
Actual Gen MVR fields to bus 1, and Name, Bus Voltage, Load MW, and Load MVR
fields to Bus 2. We can accomplish this in four steps. First, right click on bus 1 and
33
ENEE512
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
select the Add New Fields Around Bus option, which brings up the Insert Fields
dialog. Because Bus 1 is horizontal, the possible
Positions for the fields we will be adding are shown in the diagram located in the top
right half of the dialog. We will insert the Name field for bus 1 in position 1 and the
voltage field in position 5.
Use the combo boxes to specify assign the Name field to position 1 and the Voltage
field to position 5, and press OK. The name and voltage fields are to the oneline
diagram around bus 1 in the positions we specified. Repeat this same process for bus
2. If necessary, you may move each of the four newly added fields manually with the
mouse. Next add the Actual Gen MW and
Actual Gen MVR fields to the generator at bus 1. Right-click on the generator and
select the Add New Fields Around Gen option to bring up the Insert Fields dialog.
Since the generator is oriented down, the possible positions for the new fields we are
adding are shown in the rightmost illustration on the top half of the dialog. Use the
dropdown boxes to assign Actual MW to position 1 and Actual MVR to position 2.
Finally, let us add the MW and MVR fields for the load at bus 2. Right-click on the
load and select the Add New Fields Around Load option to invoke the Insert Fields
dialog. Since the bus is oriented upward, the relevant position diagram is the second
one from the left. Use the dropdown boxes to assign MW to position 5 and Mvar to
position 6.
Next we will insert fields showing the power flow on the transmission line. Right
click on the line between buses 1 and 2 and select the Add New Fields Around Line
option to bring up the Insert Fields Dialog. Use the dropdown boxes to assign MW
Flow to position 3 and Mvar Flow to position 4, and MW Flow to position 9 and
Mvar Flow to position 10. Click OK to add the fields
to the oneline. You may need to move the newly inserted fields with the mouse to
improve their appearance.
Solving the Case

We are now ready to solve the case. First we need to enter the Run Mode. To do this,
simply click on the Run Mode button on the Program Palette. Note that, if the case
has validation errors, you will need to rectify the problems before you can enter Run
34
ENEE512
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mode. To start simulating the case, simply select Simulation, Play. Alternatively, to
perform just a single Power Flow Solution,
Click Single Solution on the Program Palette. Try clicking on the load circuit breaker
to toggle the load‟s status. A solid red circuit breaker indicates that it is closed, a
hollow green box indicates it is open. If the Log window is visible, you will get a
“backstage view of what Simulator is doing. Feel free to close the log. Then, with the
load circuit breaker closed, try clicking on a transmission line circuit breaker.
Congratulations, you‟ve just blacked-out your case!
Adding a New Area

Next, we will create a second operating area for the case. Large interconnected
systems usually have a number of control areas, with each control area responsible for
the operation of a particular part of the system. Often, a single control area
corresponds to a single owner (such as an investor owned utility), but it is not unusual
for a single control area to have more than one owner. Control areas are connected to
neighboring areas through tie lines. A tie line is a transmission line that has one end in
one control area and the other end in another. The total amount of power flowing out
of a control area is the algebraic sum of the power flowing out on all the area‟s tie
lines. Each control area is responsible for procuring enough power to meet its own
load plus losses. The control area can get this power either by generating it itself, or
by buying it from another area.
This ability to buy and sell power (i.e., power transactions) is one of the principal
advantages of interconnected operation.
To create another control area, go back to editing by clicking the Edit Mode button.
Then add a third bus located below buses one and two. Set the bus number to „3‟ and
the bus name to „THREE‟. Set the Base MW field to 200 and the Base Mvar field to
100. However, in the Area Number field enters „2‟; in the Area Name field enter
„TWO‟. Entering a number for an area that does not already exist automatically
creates a new area. Next, enter a generator and a load at bus three. Then enter a
transmission line between buses 1 and 3 and another between buses 2 and 3.
For each line enter a 0.02 in the Resistance field, 0.08 in the Reactance field, 0.1 in
the Capacitance field, and 400 in the MVA Rating field.
35
ENEE512
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To verify that the case now has two areas, select Case Information, Case Summary.
The Case Information displays allow you to view the entire case using non-graphical
displays. The Case Summary dialog shows the number of buses, generators,
lines/transformers, and control areas in the case. You cannot modify any of these
values. Now we will make sure that both of the control areas are initially set as being
on automatic generation control (AGC). AGC insures that the generation in the area is
equal to the load plus losses plus and scheduled transactions. Select Case
Information, Areas. The Area display provides a convenient summary of all the
control areas in the case. Similar displays exist for buses, generators,
lines/transformers, etc. Right-click
Anywhere on the record for the first area and select the Show Dialog option. The Area
Display Dialog is shown. Change the Area Name to „ONE‟ and set the AGC Status to
ED Control. Select SAVE to save this information. Next click on the up arrow next to
the right of the Area Number field. This displays the Area Record dialog for the next
area. Set the AGC Status to ED Control,
And select OK to save your changes and close the dialog. Close the Area Records
display as well.
Solve the case using the Run Mode. While the simulation is running, click on the
circuit breakers and note the nearly instantaneous change in system flows.
Case Customization
Simulator allows you to customize your case in a number of different ways. We will
touch on just two of these options in this section.
For example, suppose we want to prescribe how the load should vary over the course
of the simulation. To accomplish this, first switch back to Edit Mode, and then select
Case Information, Others, Load Variation Schedules from the main menu. The
Load Variation Schedule Dialog will appear. Use the Load Variation Schedule Dialog
to define how load should vary over time. These prescriptions are stored as records
which may then be associated with a particular area or areas to govern how the load
changes in those areas during the simulation. At this time, no load schedules exist, and
you will thus have to define one. Designate the Schedule Type as Daily. Then, edit the
table that lists time points and corresponding load scales such that the load scale is
1.000 at hour 0, 0.8 at 06:00, 1.3 at 12:00, 2.0 at 18:00, and back down to 1.000 at
36
ENEE512
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
hour 24:00. This load schedule might approximate a control area‟s typical summer
load variation, with peak load occurring in the late afternoon. Then click the Save
Record As button to save the schedule with name Area1Daily. Then, to associate the
Area1Daily load schedule with Area 1, choose Case Information, Areas from the
main menu. Right-click on the record corresponding to area 1 and select the Show
Dialog option. In the resulting Area Information Dialog, designate the load schedule
as Area1Daily. Then, when you restart the simulation, you will find that load in area 1
will vary according to the Area1Daily load schedule. The same load schedule can be
Applied to the other area in the case, or you may define a new load schedule.
As another example of customization, we will explore how to change the animation of
power flows. Select the Animated Flows Options Tab of the Oneline Display Options
Dialog by selecting Options/Tools, Oneline Display from the main menu. Check the
Show Animated Flows box and the Use Fill Color box. Then select the Change Fill
Color button. Select a greenish
color. Then choose OK to close the Color dialog and OK again to close the Oneline
Display Options Dialog. Save the case and again start the simulation in the Run
Mode. You should see the power flowing down the line. Notice that the load in area 1
is changing and that the generation changes as well to maintain the balance between
supply and demand.

Add buses 32364 and 32372, insert transmission lines by selecting insert/auto
insert/lines.
Simulate the case, if all worked fine, you are simulating a 10452 bus case.
Contingency Analysis
Power systems are operated so that overloads do not occur both in real-time and
under any statistically likely contingency. This is often called maintaining system
"security".
Simulator is equipped with tools for analyzing contingencies in an automatic fashion,
contingencies can consist of several actions or elements
- simple example: outage of a single transmission line
- Complex: outage of several lines, a couple generators, and the closure of
normally open transmission line.
Contingency analysis tools can be accessed by selecting Options/Tools, contingency

analysis from the main menu in run mode.
Initially, no contingencies are defined for a case, you can right-click and choose insert
to add them one by one, or load them from a file or auto insert to allow Simulator to
define them.
Open a new case "B7FLAT.PWB", in the Auto-Insertion of Contingencies Dialog
choose Single transmission line, and then select Do Insert Contingencies.

Experiment #5
Three-Phase Banking of Single-Phase Transformers
Object:
To study the phase relationship between primary and secondary windings of a
transformer when connected in different combinations .
Equipments required:
Distribution Transformer Trainer, Voltmeter.
Introduction:
When three single-phase transformers are used to transform a three-phase voltage, the
windings can be connected in several ways. The primaries may be connected in delta
and the secondaries in wye, or vice versa. As a result the ratio of the three-phase input
voltage to the three-phase output voltage depends not only upon the turn's ratio of the
transformers, but also upon how the windings are connected. The figure below shows
various connection configurations.
Figure 5.1
42
ENEE512
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A three-phase transformer bank can also produce a phase shift between the three-
phase input voltage and the three-phase output voltage. The amount of phase shift
depends on the turn's ratio of the transformers, and how the primary and secondary
windings are interconnected.
Procedure:

SHUNT MOTOR WITH ARMATURE CURRENT FEEDBACK
Method: ( See Figure 3 for basic connection )
1. Remove armature voltage feedback and connect armature current feedback.

2. Turn the REFERENCE VOLTAGE and LOAD CURRENT FEEDBACK to
minimum positions.
4. Increase the REFERENCE VOLTAGE until the motor reaches an intermediate
speed.
5. Gradually increase the LOAD CURRENT FEEDBACK. The motor speed will
increase because the positive voltage fed into the bias circuit advances the
trigger pulse.
6. Turn up the torque control to load the motor with fixed settings of reference
voltage and current feedback. Note that increased armature current advances
the trigger pulse and therefore increases the armature voltage. Increase of load
tends to stabilize the motor because there is less torque available for
acceleration.

feedback signals are applied to the control circuits of the trigger module.
2. Connect FLYWHEEL diode.
3. Turn the REFERENCE VOLTAGE to the minimum position. Select a low
value of CURRENT FEEDBACK.
5. Gradually increase the REFERENCE VOLTAGE until the motor reaches top
speed or instability occurs. If stability does not occur increase the amount of
CURRENT FEEDBACK and repeat.
6. Carry out load testes, with constant reference voltage, at the two speeds
selected in previous parts. For each speed setting select the value of current
feedback which just allows stability at no load. Increase the torque in steps of
0.05 N.m until the motor stalls. Measure torque, speed, armature voltage and

Experiment #9
Creating a Program with Function Blocks and Data
Blocks Using Siemens PLCs
Objectives:
 To learn how to create a PLC program with function blocks and data blocks using
step 7 software tools. And to test this program using Siemens PLCs.
 To show you how to program a function block which can, for example, control and
monitor petrol or diesel engine using two different data blocks.
Equipment Required:
SIMATIC C7-621 PLC, STEP 7 programming software.
Procedure:
 Create new step 7 software project using SIMATIC Manager program.
 Select the C7-621 hardware from SIMATIC 300>>C7
 Open the S7 Program (1) folder and double click on the Symbols icon to open the
symbol table.
 Fill the symbol table as follows:
Table 9.1
62
ENEE512
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A) Creating and Opening Function Blocks (FB)

The function block (FB) is below the organization block in the program hierarchy. It
contains a part of the program which can be called many times in OB1. All the formal
parameters and the static data of the function block are saved in a separate data block
(DB), which is assigned to the function block.
You will program the function block (FB1, symbolic name "Engine") in the
LAD/STL/FBD program windows.
 Navigate to the Blocks folder and open it.

 Click in the right-hand half of the window with the right mouse button.
 The pop-up menu for the right mouse button contains the most important
commands from the menu bar. Insert a function block as a new object
 Double-click FB1 to open the LAD/STL/FBD program windows
 In the "properties --- Function Block" dialog box, select the language in which
you want to create the block, activate the check box "Multiple instant FB" and
confirm the remaining setting with OK.
 The function block FB1 has been inserted in the Blocks folder.
63
ENEE512
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
B) Programming FB1 in Ladder logic

We will now show you how you can program a function block which can, for example,
control and monitor a petrol or diesel engine using two different data blocks.
All "engine-specific" signals are passed on as block parameters from the organization
block to the function block and must therefore be listed in the variable declaration table
as input and output parameters (declaration "in" and "out")
You should already know how to enter a series circuit, a parallel circuit, and a memory
function with STEP 7.
Filling out the Variable Declaration Table

Your LAD/STL/FBD program windows is open and the option View>LAD(
programming language) is activated.
Enter the following declaration in the variable declaration table. To do this, click
a cell and use the corresponding name and the comment from the illustration
below.
You can select the type with the pop-up menu command Elementary Types using
the right mouse button. When you press Enter, the curser jumps to the next
column, or a new row is inserted.
Table 9.2

64
ENEE512
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Build the following Circuit in FB1. this circuit controls the switching on and off
of the engine.
Figure 9.1
Programming Speed Monitoring

 Add a new network in FB1, and build the following circuit which monitors the
speed of the engine.
Figure 9.2
 Then save your program and exit FB1.
C) Generating Instance Data Blocks and Changing Actual Values

You have just programmed the function block FB1 ("Engine") and defined, among other
thing, the engine-specific parameters in the variable declaration table.
65
ENEE512
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In order for you to be able to program the call for the function block in OB1 later on, you
must generate the corresponding data block. An instance data block (DB) is always
assigned to a function block.
The function block is to control and monitor a petrol or diesel engine. The different set
point speeds of the engines are stored in two separate data blocks, in which the actual
value (#Preset _Speed) is changed.
By centrally programming the function block only once, you can cut down on the amount
of programming involved.
 Navigate to the Blocks folder and click in the right half of the window with the right
mouse button.
 Insert a data block using the pop-up menu with the right mouse button.
 Accept all the setting displayed in the "properties" dialog box with OK. The data
block DB1 is added to your project.
 Double-click to open DB1.
 Activate the option Data block referencing a function block in the "New Data
Block" dialog box.
 Confirm the assignment "FB1, Engine" with OK. The LAD/STL/FBD program
window opens with the data from the variable declaration table for FB1. DB1 is
now to contain the data specific to a petrol engine. You still have to enter these
data. First set the Data View.
 Next enter the value "1500" for the petrol engine in the Actual Value column (in the
row "Preset_Speed"). You have now defined the maximum Speed for this engine.
 Save DB1 and chose the program window.
 In the same way as for DB1, generate another data block, DB2, for FB1.
 Now enter the actual value "1200" for the diesel engine.
Table 9.3

ENEE512
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
D) Programming a block cell in the ladder Logic.
All the work you have done programming a function block is of no use unless you call
this block in OB1. A data block is used for each function block call, and in this way , you
can control both engines.
Figure 9.3
 Navigate to the Blocks folder and open OB1.

 Then navigate in them Program Elements catalog until you reach FB Blocks>>FB1
and insert this block. And complete the circuit as follows.
67
ENEE512
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Figure 9.4
 Insert two new network in OB1, and use two move blocks to enter values to the
DE_Actual _Speed and the PE_Actual _Speed.
 Navigate to the blocks folder and open it. Then download all the function and data
blocks, and also download OB1 on the SIMATIC C7-621 PLC, and test its
operation.
Note: To download any Block, right click on that Block, and select from the pop-up
menu PLC>> Download.
 Enter several values of Actual Speeds, and see the effect on the output.

Experiment 10
Bus bar Simulator
Switchgear system forms a central part in the distribution of energy. Their correct
functioning ensures uninterrupted supplies of electrical energy.
Introduction to the subject
69
ENEE512
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Busbars are an important part of switchgear systems. Their function is to provide a

collecting point for in-coming electrical energy and to distribute this energy to where it
nay be required. In this way, one supply can provide energy to several outputs. Large
switchgear systems often have two supply sources. These switchgear systems can be pure
distribution systems, or when transformers are included with the directly-served
consumers, they are then known as power transforming stations.
The safety in the supply of electrical energy is dependent, amongst other factors, on a
clear construction of the switch gear system and an orderly layout of the operator console
of the control unit. Switching errors must at all costs be avoided; then only power switch
modules can be used for switching voltage-carrying circuits; straightforward isolating
circuit breakers are not suitable here.
Larger systems and those for supplying particularly important switchgear systems,
employ double busbars.
Procedure
1) Manual Busbar Change (control the busbar simulator manually ).
 Connect the Busbar simulator SE 2663-8G at the INPUT and socket N (blue) to a
source of 230 V AC having identical frequency, magnitude and phase to
termination 1 and 2.
 Connect the d.c. input voltage ± to 24 V.
 Connect the housing to the PE terminal.
The maximum power consumption in the a.c section is in the order of 23 VA and
approximately 0.5 A at 24 V (without PLC) (12 W).
The system is now ready for operation.
