    GRID PROTECTION

    3.1 GRID DISTURBANCES AND PROTECTION RELATED ACTIVITIES :

    Categorisation of Grid Incidents and Grid Disturbances :

    Central Electricity Authority has issued Grid Standard, which classifies Grid

    Incidents as GI-I, GI-2 & Grid Disturbances from GD-1 to GD-5 in the increasing

    Order of Severity.

    Categorisation of Grid Incidents :

    Category GI-1 : Tripping of one or more Power System Elements of the Grid

    like a Generator, Transmission Line, Transformer, Shunt

    Reactor, Series Capacitor and Static VAR Compensator, which

    requires re-scheduling of generation or load, without total loss

    of supply at a sub-station or loss of integrity of the Grid at

    220 kV;

    Category GI-2 : Tripping of one or more Power System Elements of the Grid

    like a Generator, Transmission Line, Transformer, Shunt

    Reactor, Series Capacitor and Static VAR Compensator, which

    requires re-scheduling of generation or load, without total loss

    of supply at a sub-station or loss of integrity of the Grid at

    400 kV and above;

    Categorisation of Grid Disturbances :

    Category GD-1 : When less than 10 % of the antecedent generation or load in a

    regional grid is lost;

    Category GD-2 : When 10 % to less than 20 % of the antecedent generation or

    load in a regional grid is lost;

    Category GD-3 : When 20 % to less than 30 % of the antecedent generation or

    load in a regional grid is lost;

  • Category GD-4 : When 30 % to less than 40 % of the antecedent generation or

    load in a regional grid is lost;

    Category GD-5 : When 40 % or more of the antecedent generation or load in a

    regional grid is lost.

    The details of Grid Disturbances and Grid Incidents, which occurred in the

    Southern Region have been enclosed as "Annexure XXV - GD 1" and "Annexure

    XXV - GI 1&2" respectively.

    3.2 FUNCTIONS OF PCSC :

    The functions of the Protection Coordination Sub-Committee in brief are as follows:

    a) Analysis of the Grid Disturbances, System Occurrences and other trippings

    and to suggest measures to avoid their recurrence.

    b) Coordination of settings of protective relays in the Regional System to

    maintain the security of the Grid.

    c) Periodical review of under frequency load shedding schemes, df/dt load

    shedding schemes and other protection schemes adopted in the Grid.

    d) Review of the implementation of recommendations made by the Inquiry

    Committee of the Grid Disturbances in the region concerning to above

    matters.

    e) To suggest, discuss and implement Special Protection Schemes to take care of

    major loss of import / generation so as to ensure security of the Grid.

    The Protection Sub-Committee of SRPC analyzed the Grid Disturbances,

    System Occurrences and other trippings that occurred in the Southern Regional Grid

    and suggested measures to avoid their reoccurrence.

    3.3 ISSUES DELIBERATED IN PCSC :

    The Grid Occurrences and Minor Trippings that took place in the constituent

    systems were discussed in detail in the Protection Coordination Sub-Committee

    (PCSC) meetings. Necessary guidelines / remedial measures, suggested by the

    Protection committee were taken up for implementation by the Constituents to avoid

    its reoccurrence.

  • The following issues were deliberated / implemented by the constituents in the

    Protection Sub-Committee of SRPC during the year 2014-15 :

    a. The following meetings were held to ascertain the status of implementation of

    Protection Audit recommendations of Phase I and II to the Honorable CERC:

    i. A Special Meeting was held on 19th August 2014. It was informed to

    all SR constituents that who had not completed their recommendations

    were requested to kindly approach Honble Commission through

    petition.

    ii. Another Review Meeting was conducted during the 40th meeting of

    PCSC.

    b. The second circuit of 765kV Sholapur - Raichur line of M/s RSTCL was

    commissioned on 30th

    June 2014. 765kV Wardha - Aurangabad D/C line has

    also been commissioned recently. With these reinforcements, the synchronized

    operation of SR entered into the next phase facilitating enhanced interchanges

    between NEW-SR grids. The modifications in the related Special Protection

    Scheme (SPS), necessitated by this interconnection were discussed.

    c. A Meeting was held under the Chairmanship of Secretary, MoP on 11th March

    2014 to discuss the report of Task Force on Power System analysis under

    Contingency. With reference to the outcome of this meeting, the Members

    were urged to initiate action / follow up measures as given in the report. The

    Requirements related to Power System Protection include the following:

    i. System studies group to be formed for monitoring various

    requirements for studies.

    ii. Islanding schemes to be reviewed.

    iii. Database of relay settings to be created.

    d. A Working Group meeting of PCSC was held on 30th

    July, 2015 to discuss the

    implementation of Task Force on Power System Analysis under

    Contingency, Review of Islanding Schemes, and df/dt.

  • e. On the issue of quantum of df/dt relief to be obtained in the SR, the

    Constituents had been requested to implement the following df/dt setting as

    recommended by the Working Group of PCSC :

    Stage-1 : 49.7 Hz & 0.2 Hz/sec

    Stage-2 : 49.5 Hz & 0.3 Hz/sec

    However, in view of non-uniformity in the df/dt settings adoption across the

    country, TANTRANSCO had requested to continue with the existing df/dt

    settings till a final decision on uniform settings is taken. The issue had been

    put up to National Power Committee (NPC) and the SR settings would be

    reviewed after the decision is taken at NPC level.

    f. Islanding Schemes for Southern Region were finalized and implemented with

    feeder tripping frequency at 47.9 Hz. Presently, there are four islands in SR as

    given below :

    1. Hyderabad Islanding Scheme with anticipated load Generation as 2500

    MW

    2. Chennai Islanding Scheme with anticipated load Generation as 3000 MW

    System Management Suite to the Constituents for handling the relay settings

    and database management during 36th

    PCSC meeting. In principle approval

    was given by constituents for the procurement of software package, through

    PSDF, during the 26th

    SRPC meeting. The constituents were requested to

    provide their written consent and also indicate their requirements to finalize

    the modalities of its execution in this regard.

    and above Sub-Stations was reported by the Constituents and the same was

    discussed during the PCSC meetings.

    k. As per the directions of MoP / CEA, the Detailed Project Report (DPR) in

    respect of Renovation and Up-gradation of protection system of all 220 kV

    and above substations in the Southern Region are to be prepared and submitted

    to NLDC by the concerned Constituents. The following are envisaged to be

    included in the DPRs :

    Details of the deficiencies observed during Protection Audit

    Stations, had revised formats for reporting failures of substation equipment

    and failure of transmission line towers at 220 kV & above. The Constituents

    were apprised of these new formats and requested to send the Equipment

    Failure Reports to CEA as per these new formats.

    3.5 ISLANDING SCHEMES IN THE SOUTHERN REGION :

    a. Islanding is a defense mechanism of splitting the larger power system in

    distress into smaller systems with relatively balanced load / generation in each

    of the split systems when power system may occasionally land in a situation of

  • acute load / generation unbalance when its frequency nose dives. This may

    happen in un-intended system splitting or even by sudden loss of large source.

    Such events would be characterized by high rate of decline of frequency,

    compounded by the tripping out of generating units on under-frequency or on

    process protection when the frequency falls to such low values when auxiliary

    services fail to meet the plant process requirements. The approved Islanding

    Schemes in Southern Region are non-adaptive in nature; Islands are formed

    with anticipated Load Generation balance and with tripping of pre-decided

    feeders at 47.9Hz. They are :
