 2x800MW - Reference Plant
Main equipment per unit

 Generator transformer: 3 single phase transformers

– high MVA rating of the generator transformer (about
950MVA),
– limited number of potential sub-suppliers able to
manufacture so large 3-phase transformers,
– difficulty of transportation and handling of large 3-phase
transformers
– tap changer type : off-circuit
 2x800MW - Reference Plant
Main equipment per unit
 Unit auxiliary transformers : 2 identical 3-windings
transformers
– same rating
– one winding dedicated to one boiler FWP (or possibly
another large motor), to ensure a good starting
– on-load tap changer
– possibility to provide a spare unit auxiliary transformer
 2x800MW - Reference Plant
Main equipment per unit

 Generator circuit-breaker : the benefits are many

– starting from the HV network through GT and UAT’s:
• no need of HV bay for the starting transformer
• no MV change over necessary after synchronization
– better protection selectivity: in case of generator faults, only
the GCB is tripped. No need to transfer the auxiliaries.
– better protection of the main transformer: in case of
transformer fault, it is isolated faster.
– easier operation during commissioning and maintenance
periods, thanks to the possibility to separate the generator
and the transformers
– 2 experimented potential manufacturers: Areva and ABB
 2x800MW - Reference Plant
Main equipment per unit

 Phase isolated busbars

– naturally air cooled (In~23000A, suitable for natural cooling)

 MV distribution:
– two 10 kV switchboards per unit, in the turbine electrical
buildings
– connection from UAT by cables
 2x800MW - Reference Plant
Main equipment per unit

 LV distribution:
– « radial » type
– one switchboard for turbine hall auxiliaries, in the turbine electrical
building
– one switchboard for boiler auxiliaries, in the boiler electrical building
– decentralized switchboards for other plants

 Emergency LV diesel generator : one per unit, designed for

the essential auxiliaries of one unit + common

 UPS and DC systems

– production: in the unit electrical building
– distribution as necessary (boiler), and production of 24VDC locally
 2x800MW - Reference Plant
Main equipment for station auxiliaries

 One maintenance transformer of limited size (5MVA

typically), as option
– used during unavailability of unit power transmission
equipment

 MV distribution
– Two 10 kV switchboards, in the central electrical building
– supplied from Unit 1 or 2
 2x800MW - Reference Plant
Main equipment for station auxiliaries

 LV distribution
– 1 switchboard, in the central control building
– decentralized switchboards for FGD, WTP, coal, ...

 UPS and DC systems

– production: in the central control building,
– distribution: decentralized necessary
 2x800MW - Reference Plant
Operation

 Normal operation:
– each pair of UAT supplies the unit auxiliaries
– the common auxiliaries are supplied by either unit
 Starting:
– from the HV network through the main transformer and the
unit auxiliary transformers, with the generator CB open
– no starting transformer
 2x800MW - Reference Plant
Operation

 Normal shutdown:
– opening of the generator CB
– supply of the auxiliaries from the HV network
 Emergency shutdown:
– the emergency diesel set supplies the essential unit
auxiliaries
– the essential common auxiliaries are supplied from unit 1 or
unit 2
 2x800MW - Reference Plant
Standards and Voltage Levels

 Generally, IEC standards are applied for design and tests

 One MV level: 10 kV for motors > 300kW
– lower voltage is not possible due to the high rated power of the boiler
FWP (~13MW)
 690V for motors > 90kW & <= 350kW
 400V for motors <= 90kW, MOV’s
 110V DC for control voltage, solenoid valves, DC motors
 230V AC UPS single phase for DCS ALSPA P320
 24V DC for DCS interfaces, transmitters
 2x800MW - Reference Plant
MV Switchboards

 MV switchboards
– withdrawable type, metal-clad, IP 30
– air insulated cubicles
– outgoing feeders: circuit-breakers or fuse-contactors, SF6
or vacuum
– digital protection relays
– digital measuring units, connected to DCS ALSPA P320
through Modbus link
 MV/LV transformers
– dry type, indoor, naturally air cooled
– close to the LV switchboards
 2x800MW - Reference Plant
LV Switchboards

 LV switchboards
– withdrawable type, IP 31
– PMCC type: no separate PCC and MCC. Advantages: smaller electrical
rooms and less switchboards
– incomers and busties: air circuit-breakers
– motor feeders: fuse-contactors
– sub-distribution feeders: fuse-switches
– auxiliary control voltage: 110V DC, thus control voltage always
available whatever the disturbances on LV network. Very good
feedback from many projects, standardized interfaces with DCS P320.
 Distribution panels (MOV’s, lighting, UPS, DC, …)
– fixed type
 2x800MW - Reference Plant
Miscellaneous

 Motorized valves with integrated contactors, supplied from

fixed type distribution panels. Advantages :
– Smaller size of switchboards and electrical rooms
– Less I&C cabling

 Emergency lighting:
– Supplied from the emergency diesel generator
– Ensures about 20% of normal lighting and participates to normal
lighting

 Safety lighting:
– Supplied from the 110 V DC system
– Dedicated to the control room
 2x800MW - Reference Plant
UPS and 24V DC systems

 For each unit and the station auxiliaries, two redundant UPS,
including:
– 2 dedicated batteries, 1 hour autonomy per switchboard, lead acid type,
– 2 battery chargers, naturally air cooled,
– 2 inverters, naturally air cooled,
– 1 bypass transformer,
– a set of static switches,
– 2 independant distribution boards
 24V DC systems :
– supplied from UPS
– no dedicated batteries,
– 2 sets of redundant modular 230V AC/24V DC converters
– 2 independant distribution boards
