1. Introduction:-

Data on the Electrical System are the most useful tool for the Electrical engineers to know
the limit of their working arena. According to the limitation of Data, proper planning, estimation and
confirmation regarding the equipments can be achieved. Basically the practice Engineer are very
cautious regarding the value of threshold on the Electrical Parameters, upon the field works on the
Equipments on which they work to obtain the efficiency of the assigned project. Many a times they
get confused to land upon a decisive conclusion; due to the non-availability of ready reckon electrical
data. This chapter has covered all the possible zones of electrical field topics with some reference data
in concise manner. The reference tips on the maintenance schedule, testing methods, installation
practice and commissioning patterns can help the Electrical Engineers to acquaint themselves and
develop a healthy environment by refining their practice towards the field works.

(ii) For impedance having different ratio (R/X)
ICr = (VA-VB)/Z,
Where Z = ( R A + R B ) 2 + ( X A + X B ) 2
VA = Secondary terminal voltage of transformer (A) (Lower ratio)
VB = Secondary terminal voltage of transformer (B) (Higher ratio),
ZA = (VZA.VA) / (100 X IA), IA = F.L. current
VZA = % Imp. Voltage drop at F.L. Rating

(i) For impedance having same ratio (R/X)

ICrA = (VA – M ) / ZA ICrB = (VB – M) / ZB

load cycle is 10 MVA . The constant equivalent load before the peak is 5 MVA which is 66.6
% of the name plate rating of the transformer . Therefore a 7.5 MVA transformer is suitable
for this daily load cycle.

5.8 FORMULAE FOR VERTICAL AND HORIZONTAL CLEARANCE in Mtr.

1. Vertical Clearance :- 0.75 d75 + ls + ( V/150 )

2. Horizontal Clearance :- 0.62 d75 + ls + ( V/150 )

Where :- d75 :- Sag at 75 0 C , ls – Length of Insulator String in Mtr,

V- Voltage in KV
5.9. TYPICAL SAG- TENSION CALCULATION OF CONDUCTOR ( AAAC-ZEBRA )

Properties of Conductor

Sectional area – 487.5 mm2

Overall Dia _ 28.71 mm
Weight :- 1.3455 Kg/m
Mod. Of Elasticity ( E ) - 5608x106 Kg/m2
Coefficient Linear Expansion ( ) – 23 x10-6 / 0 C
Mini. Ultimate Tensile Tension – 131.63 KN = 134522 KG
Normal Span – 350 m
Wind pressure – 52 Kg/m2
Min. Temp. – 0 0 C
Max Temperature - 90 0 C
Every Day Temperature – 32 0 C
Factor of Safety – 4

CALCULATION

Working Tension ( T1) = Mini. Ultimate Tensile Tension/ FOS= = 134522 KG/4 =
3355.5 KG
Working Stress ( f1) = 3355.5/487.5 x10-6 = 6.88 x106 KG/m2

Sag And Tension at 90 0 C ( Still Air ) HOT SAG

F =[ f1 – ( w2 l2 E / 24 T12 )] - E ( 2 – 1 )
= [6.88 x106 – (1.34552 x 3502 x 5608x106 / 24 x 3355.52 ) ] - 23 x10-6 x 23 x10-6 ( 90 -
32 )
= - 5.20041 x 106
T2 = Tension = f2 x A
But f22 ( f2 - F ) = G = w2 l2 E / 24 A2
f22( f2 + 5.20041 x 106) =1.34552x 3502 x5608x106 /24x487.5x10-12
Now f2 = 4.7006 x 106 Kg/m2
T2 = Tension = f2 x A = 4.7006 x 106 x487.5x10- 6 = 2292 KG
SAG = D2 = w l2 / 8 T2= 8.989 Mtr

Sag And Tension at 0 0 C ( Still Air ) COLD SAG

F =[ f1 – ( w2 l2 E / 24 T12 )] - E ( 2 – 1 )
= [6.88 x106 – (1.34552 x 3502 x 5608x106 / 24 x 3355.52 ) ] - 23 x10-6 x 23 x10-6 ( 0 -
32 )
= 6.40815 x 106
T3 = Tension = f3 x A
But f32 ( f3 - F ) = G = w2 l2 E / 24 A2
f32( f3 - 6.40815 x 106) =1.34552x 3502 x5608x106 /24x487.5x10-12
Now f3 = 9.0629x 106 Kg/m2
T3 = Tension = f3 x A = 4418 KG
SAG = D3 = w l2 / 8 T3= 4.663 Mtr

8.3 TESTING OF SOIL RESISTIVITY

Method: - Wenner’s 4 Point Method
= 2 AR, = Soil Resistivity ,
A = Distance between the Electrodes in Mtr,
R = Earth Resistance (Meter Reading),

Points to be noted during Measurement

1. 4 Spikes to be kept straight line at equal distance,
2. Link (Terminals) of Instrument P1-C1 & P2- C2 to be connected individually,
3. Reading of Meter to be taken at 150 RPM.
8.4 MEASUREMENT OF EARTH ELECTRODE RESISTANCE

8.4.1 GROUND ELECTRODE ( ROD )

Method: - fall of Potential Method OR Three point Method

Points to be noted during Measurement

1.( d1 + d2 ) 30 Mtrs. 2. Depth of Current Electrode (C) and Potential Electrode should be
approx. 1 Mtr.
3. 3 (d1/ d2) 1, 4. Reading of Meter at 150 RPM
NOTE: _- Take (d1 + d2) = 50 Mtr, Depth of Electrode + 1 Mtr and (d1 /d2) = 1.5 for
better Result

8.4.2 GROUND MAT: - method of measurement same as ground rod.

8.5 FORMULA FOR DESIGN OF GROUNDING IN POWER SYSTEM

8.5.1 Safe body current

1. I = 0.165/ t (As per AIEE 80 /1961).

2. I50 = 0.116/ t for person of 50 KG wt. (As per IEEE 80/1976)
3. I 70 = 0.157/ t for person of 70 KG wt. (As per IEEE 80/1986)
4. I50 = 0.155/ t (As per IEEE 80/1976)
Where I = RMS Current through Human body,
t = Duration of current in Second
8.5.2 Step and Touch Potential

1. Tolerable Step Potential (Estep) = (1000 + 6 Cs ps) 0.155 / t

2. Tolerable Touch Potential (E touch) = (1000 + 1.5Cs ps) 0.155 / t

33 0.5
132 1.0
220 1.25

$ The selection and choice of the operating time of the relays depend upon the type of
protection scheme used in the system and type of radial system and type of relay used
in the system.
PSM of O/C relay
It is to be selected according to the load required by the system and thermal
characteristics of the line conductor
Standard allowable OVER LOADING FACTOR is ( 1.25 to 1.5 )
PSM of E/F relay
It is to be selected according to the residual current and allowable unbalance current in
the a system
 3. PROCEDURE OF CALCULATION WITH A TYPICAL EXAMPLE OF AN
O/C RELAY

EXAMPLE 1
Suppose 3 Phase fault MVA = 1000 MVA
Single line to Ground fault MVA = 750 MVA
CTR used = 500/1
3 Secs of IDMT characteristics is in use
3 × TDS
OT = OT = Operating time in Sec.
log10 CM
CM= Current Multiplier= ( secondary current / PSM )
PSM = Plug Setting Multiplier
TDS = Time Dial Setting = Time Setting Multiplier (TSM )
System Voltage = 33 KV
Suppose Operating Time = 0.5 Sec
PSM of the O/C relay = 0.75 ( 75 % )

STEP 1 ( CALCULATION OF CM )

Secondary Fault Current = ( Primary fault Current / CTR )

Primary fault current ( O/C ) = (3 ph. Fault current x 103 ) / ( 3 x System Voltage in KV )
= 1000x 103 / 3 x 33 = 17495.5 Amp
So, Sec. fault Current = 17495.5/ ( 500/1) = 34.99
CM = 34.99/0.75 = 46.65

STEP 2 ( CALCULATION OF TDS )

3 × TDS 3 × TDS
OT = 0 .5 = TDS = 0.278 0.3
log10 CM log10 46.65
SO, FINAL PSM = 0.75, TSM= 0.3
Note ;- For E/F relay setting SLG fault MVA should be considered.

EXAMPLE 2
Consider a radial system feeders from a 33/11 KV Sub-Station as shown below
R3
33 KV BUS 11KV BUS F1
200/1
R4
R1 100/1 R2 300/1 F2 5
MVA 200/1
%Z=8
Suppose
Operating Time for relays at R3 and R4 = 0.25 Sec.
PSM of the relays = 1 ( 100 % )
3 Secs of IDMT characteristics is in use
 Calculation for relays (R3 & R4 )

Calculation on the basis of Transformer Rating to be taken.

So, FAULT MVA = ( Tr. Rating / p.u Reactance ) with assumption of Zero Source impendance.
Fault MVA = 5 / 8 %= (5 x 100 ) / 8 = 62.5
1.CM = 16.401( Refer Step 1 ) , 2. TSM = 0.101 ( Refer Step 2 )
So. PSM = 100 % , TSM = 0.1 ( nearest value )
Calculation for relay R2
Here the concept of Discrimation Time has to be selected .
Assume 1. Discrimation Time (DT ) between Primary and Back up = 0.4 sec#
2. Discrimation Time (DT ) for the same feeder = 0.05@ sec
So, Operating time of the Relay ( R2 ) = ( 0.25 + 0.4# ) = 0.65sec.
Suppose the PSM = 0.75
1.CM = 14.58 ( Refer Step 1 ) , 2. TSM = 0.252 ( Refer Step 2 )
So. PSM = 75 % , TSM = 0.25 ( nearest value )
Calculation for relay R1
Suppose PSM = 100 %, OT of the Relay ( R1 ) = ( 0.65 + 0.05@ ) = 0.70sec.
1.CM = 10.935 ( Refer Step 1 ) , 2. TSM = 0.242 ( Refer Step 2 )
So. PSM = 75 % , TSM = 0.25 ( nearest value )
