1. TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION, REQUIREMENTS AND DATA
1.1. General
These Special Technical Specifications together with the General Technical

Specifications refer to the special technical requirements for the Detail design,
manufacture, workshop tests, delivery at the site, dismantling of existing equipment,
installation of new equipment, site tests, trial operation and elaboration of as-built
design of Monitoring System Equipment on Hydro Power Plants in a scope of HPP
Bistrica.
These specifications consist of specific requirements for Monitoring System

Equipment and its accessories. All General Technical Specifications are valid for
Monitoring System Equipment and shall also be applied.
Wherever it is possible, these Special Technical Specifications shall be applied in

conjunction with the General Technical Specifications. In case of discrepancies
between the General and Special Technical Specifications, the Special Technical
Specifications shall prevail.
Data, information, requirements and conditions from this Section, shall be relevant,
where applicable, to other Sections of this Tender documentation.
1.2. Technical Description and Data of Existing Equipment
1.2.1 Vibration Monitoring system
The existing vibration monitoring system is only installed on the aggregate B and
consists of the following equipment:
- sensors with associated transducers
- rack with modules,
- cable installation by which measurements from the sensor are introduced

into the rack.
After processing signals from the sensor, the following output solutions are possible:
- Relay contact outputs for each two-level signal (warning and

disconnection) and
- Ethernet communication with the central computer in the control room of

the power plant, where it is possible to display the vibration state of the
generator through the monitor.
Vibration measurement refers to the following measurement sizes:
- Relative vibration of the shaft of the generator - radial direction,
- Relative movement of the shaft of the generating unit - axial direction,
- Speed of rotation of the shaft of the generating unit,
- Absolute vibration of the generator bearing - radial direction,
4 / 48
- Absolute vibration of the generator bearing - axial direction,
- Absolute Vibrations of Stator Core and
- The position of the turbine governor.
The vibration monitoring system will be implemented as a distributed system. The

distributed system implies the installation of special units - IED for monitoring
vibrations for each generating unit, connected through a special communication
network with a common computer for vibration analysis and diagnostics, or a central
monitoring computer. The vibration monitoring system of each generating unit
consists of the following equipment:
 sensors with necessary electronics (transducers) and carriers;

 connecting cables, connection boxes with accessories (protective hoses,
cable glands, etc.);
 Data collection units (IED) of vibration monitoring.
In addition to this equipment, the following common equipment is also foreseen
 software for analyzing and diagnosing the vibrations of both generating

units, installed in the central computer monitor and
 laptop for programming and configuring the vibration monitoring system.
As the vibration parameters of the generating unit directly depend on its operating
mode (rotational speed, load, etc.), all the necessary data for vibration analysis and
diagnostics will be provided via the IED connection for vibration monitoring with the
appropriate generating unit process station, i.e. generating unit control system.
The vibration monitoring system will also have a protection function. For this purpose,
a hard-wired connection will be realized with the control and protection systems of
the generating unit, which will be used for signaling of alerts and alarms, as well as
the issuance of the emergency alarm command for generating unit. Warning and
alarm signals from the vibration monitoring system, refer to signals such as: vibration
above the permitted level, IED monitoring vibration failure, etc.
1.2.2 Generator Partial Discharge Monitoring
The existing partial discharge monitoring system in HPP Bistrica consists of

differential capacitive sensors and a portable analyzer:
The existing partial discharge monitoring system in HPP Bistrica comprises the
following:
- High-voltage capacitive sensors,
- Terminal boxes and
- Portable analyzer of partial discharges.

The partial discharge monitoring system consists of 6 (six) high-voltage capacitive
sensors, 2 (two) per phase, permanently installed at certain intervals (at generator
terminals) and connected to the terminal box by means of coaxial cables, with the
impedance of 50 , and a portable test instrument PDA-6D that is connected to
portable personal computer (PC).
Sensors detect high-frequency pulses occurring at the locations of partial discharges.

External pulses from a source outside generator (transformer and/or other external
5 / 48
sources) are eliminated in the PDA-6D analyzer itself.
The probe consists of capacitive sensors directly connected to copper busbars of

high- voltage generator phase terminals. This sensor is further connected to terminal
box by means of 50  coaxial cable. This cable should be as short as possible in
order to reduce disturbances and partial discharge signal weakening. The probes are
installed on outer busbars.
Terminal box is connected to partial discharge analyzer by means of 6 coaxial cable

with 50  impedance. It is located in the area of generator neutral point and has the
following two functions:
- Fixing of coaxial cables from partial discharge sensor to permanent spot so

that the analyzer can be disassembled without disconnecting coaxial cable
ends from the sensor;
- Connection and earthing of coaxial cable armour armature. Terminal box is

also connected to the analyzer by means of 50  cable.
Received signals are preliminarily processed in the analyzer by using computer-

controlled amplifier. Signals are then converted into digital signals by using A/D
converter and they are recorded on hard disk. Data are further analyzed by a special
algorithmic program package. Noise is removed in frequency and time range.
The number and value of positive and negative PP pulses are displayed at any
moment on the display on the front side of the analyzer for each phase equipped with
a sensor. At the same time, results of measurements from two difference measuring
points are displayed as well. The analyzer front contains tree-colour LED indicators of
stator winding condition.
The analyzer provides the following indications of winding condition:
- Green colour - normal condition,
- Orange colour - increased discharge - alarm signal and
- Red colour - increased discharge - emergency signal.
1.3. Technical Data, Descriptions and Requirements for Reconstruction and

Modernization
1.3.1 Scope of Modernization
The new system will be designed as a monitoring system that supports the following
separate entities:
- vibration monitoring system;

- monitoring the air gap between the rotor and the stator;
- monitoring of partial discharges;
- monitoring of magnetic flux,
- Monitoring the temperature of the rotor,
- monitoring of step-up transformer.
The generating unit monitoring system must provide integration at several levels. The
system should be implemented to allow for the viewing of measurement data and
6 / 48
various analyzes of all subsystems that it encompasses with any computer in the TCP
/ IP network.
The central part of each subsystem will be placed in the common control cubicle of
the generating unit 1 (+ 1UM1) and the generating unit 2 (+ 2UM1) with the
accompanying process unit and other equipment for receiving signals from measuring
sensors and signals taken from other systems (control system, excitation system etc.).
Each of the subsystems will forward the information to the central computer of
monitoring, i.e. central server that will store measurement data and the results of
various analyzes and processing into a database will perform certain analysis of
measurement data and allow users to access data from a database.
The hardware and software of the aggregate monitoring system will be of a modular
type, so that they can provide future upgrades to the system. It is important that the
monitoring system has a high level of autonomy and requires minimal maintenance.
Vibration monitoring
A stationary system of permanent monitoring of generating unit vibration parameters

is a modern system that enables simultaneous registration and diagnostic analysis of
a large number of different dynamic sizes relevant for the evaluation and monitoring
of the state of the generating unit.
The Contractors obligation shall be to dismantle the existing sensors, reinstall them
on the new Units, setting the Vibration Monitoring System parameters, perform the
necessary tests on the equipment and put system in operation.
Partial discharges
Monitoring of partial discharges in stator windings is obsolete (off-line) and it does not
provide timely information about possible breakdown of winding insulation. For that
reason, the latest standard for this type of equipment is a system with on-line
continuous monitoring of generator parameters, which improves the main role of this
system. Additionally, in this way, power monitoring results will be reliably compared
with the results of off-line testing and diagnostics. Additionally, in this way, power
monitoring results will be reliably compared with the results of off-line testing and
diagnostics. This Tender documentation envisages replacement of the entire system,
without retaining the existing sensors.
Air gap monitoring
Measurement of air gap is one of the most important parameters necessary for safe
and efficient exploitation of the generator. Touching the rotor to the stator is often the
cause of long-term and expensive overhaul of the hydrogenerator. The air gap control
together with the rotor / stator / rotor / stator / shape control can provide a timely alert
about the possibility of touching. Shoving the shaft in relation to the central axis of the
rotor or distorting the stator concentration also reduces the efficiency of the generator's
operation at the expense of increasing the magnetic attraction of the rotor to the stator
in the area of the minimum gap and corresponding growth of the stator winding and
losses.
Monitoring of the magnetic flux will allow continuous (continuous) monitoring of the
magnetic flux in the air gap of the generator (intermediate). The monitoring of the
magnetic flux will allow testing of the insulation state during the operation of the
generator, during working conditions in which electrical, magnetic, temperature and
mechanical stresses are present.
7 / 48
Since there are no air gap and magnetic flux monitoring systems on the HPP Bistrica,
the Contractor will deliver and install new monitoring equipment on new generators,
adjust the parameters of the monitoring system, perform the necessary tests on the
equipment and let the system work.
Since there are no systems for air gap of monitoring and monitoring of magnetic flux
on the Units in HPP Bistrica, the Contractor will deliver and install new equipment for
monitoring on new generators, adjust parameters of monitoring systems, performing
necessary equipment tests and interconnecting to operating mode.
Monitoring the temperature of the rotor
The temperature monitoring system of the rotor consists of measuring the temperature
of the poles of the rotor and, above all, the temperature of the intermediate pole bonds,
in order to create a thermal image of the rotor.
The contractor will deliver and install new equipment for monitoring the temperature
of the rotor on new generators, adjust the system parameters, perform the necessary
tests on the equipment and let the system work.
Step-up Transformer Monitoring System
In order to carry out on-line monitoring (monitoring) of the condition of the step-up
transformer, measurements and analyzes of the temperatures of the transformer parts
and the content of gases in the oil will be performed.
1.3.2 Basic Requirements for Unit’s Monitoring Systems
Reconstruction of the main electromechanical equipment of HPP Bistrica, which

involves replacement of reconstruction of unit monitoring system and monitoring of
step-up transformer.
For a purpose of premature diagnostic of possible generator faults, it is necessary to

install the monitoring system for observing of the generator’s vibrations, partial
discharges parameters of generators and air-gap values in the zone between rotor
and stator and monitoring of temperature of rotor.
These systems shall be realized in accordance to the newest technical and

technological achievements and shall be complied with the systems which shall be
applicable on the generators of this type and capacity.
Systems shall be “user friendly” meaning that the end-user may perform their own
testing and trending with minimal training from the Contractor. Systems shall not
require the services of the Contractor to obtain meaningful results. However, the
Contractor shall be capable of providing a formal analysis report of the collected data
at the request of the end- user. Systems shall be controlled from PC Computers, and
the following software functions shall be provided:
 System setup and alert definitions,
 Data acquisition from all installed sensors,
 Data processing in real time and
8 / 48

functions.
Monitoring systems shall be used to collect the data as a permanent online monitoring
system with protection capability as well as to be used to view data in real-time during
commissioning or maintenance.
The unit monitoring system shall enable integration at several levels.
The system shall be implemented in such a manner so that it enables review of

measurement data and various analyses of all subsystems that it covers from any
computer in TCP/IP network.
The concept of the unit monitoring system has
three levels:
Level 1 - Measuring part
Measuring string arrays that include sensors and signal
transducers.
Level 2 – Units for data acquisition and processing
Each unit is an autonomous, automated and fully functional continuous monitoring

unit. It contains modules for measuring, data acquisition and processing,
communication, power supply and software for alarm (protection), data processing
and storing.
Level 3 - Application part
Central monitoring computer (CRM), specialized software for condition diagnostics

and evaluation, database, client server, etc.
Data acquisition and processing unit of each subsystem shall be housed in a joint
monitoring system cubicle of Unit 1 (+1UM1) and Unit 2 (+2UM1) in HPP Bistrica.
Each subsystem shall transmit information to the central monitoring computer i.e.
central servers that will store measuring data and results of various analyses and
processing in a database, perform certain analyses of measuring data and provide
insight in data from the database to the users.
Hardware and software of the unit monitoring system shall be of modular type in order
to enable future expansions of the system. The monitoring system should have a high
level of operation autonomy and it should require minimum maintenance.
Alarm signalization, when set parameters of the system are overreached, shall be
transferred to Units master station, by hardwire connection. When set parameters of
the system are overreached and immediate tripping of Unit is necessary hardwired
commands should be transferred to the binary inputs in Unit Protection Relay (System
A and B).
The Contractor shall supply and install all necessary support structure, cable
accessories and all other required installation material, for the purpose of Monitoring
Systems Equipment proper installation, according to relevant technical standards and
safety regulations.
