Generator Inspection Technical Required (80MW)

1. Pre-shutdown checks
The following will be checked and recorded prior to the shutdown;
 Check double insulated bearings;
 Recurring problems and discrepancies review;
 Present annunciator drops; and
 Operating data;

2. Shutting down of units

Isolation, lock out/ tag out activities, deactivate the fire protection system, iso late
electric power system, isolate field instruments and blank-off fuel lines.
3. Remove lagging
 Upper end shield lagging
 Upper cooler dome lagging
4. Disassembly
 Remove instrumentation/lighting/motors;
 Remove collector compartment instrumentation as required;
 Remove collector compartment lighting as required;
 Remove load compartment instrumentation as required;
 Disassemble journal bearings, visually inspect, record clearances and
condition, including ball seat contract and pinch cheeks;
 Disassemble oil deflectors and hydrogen seals;
 Disassemble end shield piping;
 Disassemble/remove collector brush holder rigging;
 Remove end shields and generator field; and
 Remove stator cooler heads;

11.Pre-start and operational checks

 Check slow roll operation
 Remove tag out, lock out; reactivate the fire protection system; reactivate
electric power system; reactivate field instrumentation; remove blank-off
fuel lines, etc.;
 Carry out instrumentation functional check; Check piping for leaks;
auxiliary system loop check;
 Start up the unit and record and anlyze the operating parameters;
 Submit with comments and observations the post; and
 Submit shutdown inspection report one (1) month after the shutdown
