 Introduction to Gas Insulated
Substation:

 Gas Insulated Substation was first established in 1968 and 1972.

After about 5 years of experience, the use rate is increased to
about 20% of new substations in countries where space is limited.
 GIS is a high voltage substation in which the major structures are
ZES ZCOER , Pune

contained in a sealed environment with sulphur hexafluoride gas

as the insulating medium.

 Working of GIS:

 The working of GIS is to be explained by using the equipment's

installed according to their positions. The function of the
equipment's explained all the operation related to GIS but for
ZES ZCOER , Pune

the betterment we have to use the sequence of the equipment's

placed.
 Sequence: I/c Bus—Earthing Switch—Potential Transformer(P)
—Isolator(P)—Circuit Breaker(P)—Current Transformer(P)—
Isolator(P)—Transformer—Potential Transformer(S)—
Isolator(S)—Circuit Breaker(S)—Current Transformer(S)–
Isolator(S)—O/g Bus.
 Every substation operates on the basic sequence of the
equipment's which is similar on primary and secondary side.

 Recent Developments:

 Torrent commissions new 400kV GIS Grid in Substation in

Ahmedabad.
 TPDDL commissions 66kV switchgear GIS: The substation
ZES ZCOER , Pune

commissioned in record time of nine months, is expected to 50000

consumers including institutional, domestic and commercial ones.
 Alstoms T&D India to supply power grid’s first Make in India GIS.
 Commissioning of Nagarnar steel plant: NMDC switches on a
220KV sub-station The GIS system at the steel plant’s Main
Receiving Station (MRS) has been imported from France and set up
by GE, India at a cost of Rs 140 crore.

 Research:

 Earthing Design IEEE 80:Brief overview of earthing design

calculations for substation as per IEEE 80: 2013 with emphasis on
gas insulated switchgears

 Design Decisions for Panels, Switchboards, Switchgear &

Busways: This article is about costs of technologies, paradigms, use
of aluminium, copper, CCA and a patent. 
 Survey of Induced Voltage and Current Phenomena in GIS
Substation: Induced capacitive voltage and current in high voltage
GIS substation is one of the most significant phenomena that may
have made some problems in this substation operation.

 Installation Issues:

Future Expansion Aspects:

 Sight Transportation Access: Due to use of SF6 as insulating

material in GIS it installed away from populated area but it
ZES ZCOER , Pune

must easy for accession of transmission is one of the issue.

 Security: As in GIS the distance between equipment's reduces
but in the similar accordance security level increases.
 Material Storage: As GIS installation is in small area so the
facilitation of the material storage is necessary for generation
is the difficulty.

 Applications of GIS:

 High voltage installations: More favourable gas insulated

technology becomes due to higher voltage.
 Urban installation: GIS technology can be installed in areas
ZES ZCOER , Pune

where cost of real estate is significant consideration.

 Indoor installations: Due to gas insulating substation can easily
go inside buildings.
 Environmentally sensitive installations: GIS technology is
popular in desert and arctic areas.

 Conclusion:

GIS generates no noise and no radio interference during operation.

It is necessary for extra hv and ultra hv substation also it is more
conservative. GIS requires less space and more reliable. And most
ZES ZCOER , Pune

importance is that it can be called as maintenance free.
