the normal supply is lost the bus-tie will close automatically and the emergency
generator feeds the whole switchboard.

SP-8530-0000-0001
Electrical General Design Specification Page 14 of 34
CSPC Nanhai Petrochemicals Project
Bechtel – SEI – Foster Wheeler PMC

The status of the automatic transfer switch shall be monitored by the ENMCS system
so that if they have operated and normal power is later restored they are switched
back to the normal power supply. The switching itself shall be performed manually.

7.2 Diesel Supply

A diesel fuel day tank to allow 24 hours operation of the generators shall be provided.

7.3 Classification of Loads for Emergency Supplies

Electrical loads and consumers must be classified as performing a service that is

'vital', 'essential', or 'non-essential', as defined below.

7.3.1 Vital service

A service which, when failing in operation or when failing if called upon,

can cause an unsafe condition of the process and/or electrical installation,
jeopardise life, or cause major damage to the installation.

Vital service is further divided into vital no-break, vital maintained and vital
non-maintained

7.3.2 Essential service

A service, which, when failing in operation or when failing if called upon,

will affect the continuity, the quality or the quantity of the product.

7.3.3 Non-essential service

A service that is neither vital nor essential

7.4 Power Supply Arrangements Related to Load Classification

The load classification, as discussed in section 7.3 above, shall be recorded on the
electrical load summary sheet. Once classified the electrical supply to each type of
load must be arranged to give security of supply that is appropriate to its

SP-8530-0000-0001
Electrical General Design Specification Page 15 of 34
CSPC Nanhai Petrochemicals Project
Bechtel – SEI – Foster Wheeler PMC

classification. The power supply arrangements related to the load classification shall
be based on the requirements listed below.

7.4.1 Vital No-Break supplies

This is a power supply derived from one or more UPS units each of which
incorporates a battery to provide power in the event of failure of the mains
electricity supply. The power supply is uninterrupted in the event of mains
supply failure and is maintained throughout the battery discharge period.

For continuous process or production facilities, uninterruptible, maintained

supplies shall be derived from two independent UPS units, each with its
own battery, static changeover switch and an external maintenance
bypass switch, as shown in Standard Drawing S 67.006.

UPS systems shall be provided for the Process Control Systems, critical
Health/Safety/ Security systems and critical Telecommunications
Systems. Emergency diesel generator supplies shall be provided to the
UPS systems to increase their autonomy times, although the batteries
alone shall provide the required autonomies.

7.4.2 Vital Maintained Services

This is a power supply which is derived from the main distribution system
but which has back-up power supply, typically from an automatically
started, emergency diesel generator. The interruption in voltage on mains
supply failure is normally 10 to 15 seconds.

This category of supply shall be used for energising electric motors

associated with cooling systems of enclosures housing process control
and instrument systems; analysers; emergency and escape lighting.

SP-8530-0000-0001
Electrical General Design Specification Page 16 of 34
CSPC Nanhai Petrochemicals Project
Bechtel – SEI – Foster Wheeler PMC

7.4.3 Vital Non-Maintained Services

This is a power supply derived from the main distribution system but
which does not have a back- up power supply. This category can only be
applied where the normal power system has independent sources of
supply. The Nanhai project has independent sources of generation (1
GTG and a number of STGs) and a connection to the public utility
network. There is no credible scenario where a single fault results in loss
of power to more than one bus-section per voltage level. Motors that
require vital supplies do not have to be fed from the emergency electrical
system provided that:

 There are two drives

 The drives are fed from different bus-sections or one of the drives
is not electric.

This category of supply shall be used for motors for vital services not
included in the previous two categories.

7.4.4 Essential Services

Essential Supplies are treated in the same way as the vital non-
maintained supplies, That is, they have a power supply derived from the
main distribution system. Because of the high reliability of the distribution
system it is not regarded as necessary to provide extra back up for the
essential consumers. Where it is not possible to provide a back up for an
essential consumer (for example, there may not be enough space to
provide two electric motors for a service) automatic changeover on the
feeding distribution board may be applied.

7.4.5 Non-essential service

There are no specific requirements for the treatment of non-essential

supplies. They shall be provided with power from the normal power
system. No duplication of loads is required, for example a single pump
motor may be used in this service rather than a pair of pumps.

SP-8530-0000-0001
Electrical General Design Specification Page 17 of 34
CSPC Nanhai Petrochemicals Project
Bechtel – SEI – Foster Wheeler PMC

7.5 Loads fed from the emergency diesel generator system.

From the preceding descriptions and definitions it follows that the loads fed from the
emergency diesel generator system shall be generally limited to:

 UPS supplies to Process Control Systems, critical Health/Safety/Security

Systems and critical Telecommunications Systems

 HVAC supplies to FARs, Control Rooms and some Analyser houses

 Emergency and Escape Lighting.

Process considerations may lead to other loads being considered as vital maintained
services, for example drives that are required to operate to prevent runaway
reactions or lube oil motors for large machines. These shall, however, be strictly
limited.

8.0 POWER TRANSFORMERS

8.1 Construction
