2 SCENARIO 1: Main Bus-1 out for Maintenance, Outage for OG-1 (No Bus Coupler between Main Bus-1 & Transfer Bus) Prior to taking outage on Main Bus-1, the conditions of the various switches and CBs are as follows: S1 CB-1 S2 S3 S7 S8 CB-3 S9 Close Close Close Open Open Close Close Close

S4 CB-2 S5 S6 S10 CB-4 S11 S12 S13 BC-2 S14

Close Close Close Open Close Close Close Open Open Open Open

In order to transfer the load on OG-1, on to the Transfer Bus, the following steps needed to performed sequentially: 1) 2) 3) 4) 5) 6) CB-1 to be opened (this causes an outage on OG-1) CB-3 to be opened S1, S2, S8 and S9 to be opened (Main Bus-1 completely isolated now) S-7 to be closed S13, S14 to be closed BC-2 to be closed (and Lo & Behold!! Supply to OG-1 restored) BC-2 Acts as line breaker for OG-1.
