b)
Provide warning barriers around the equipment to be energized first for the protection of plant
personnel.
c)

Ensure that circuit breakers and disconnecting switches are open and SF6 pressure correct.

d)

Check all panels and electrical equipment are connected to earth.

e)

Check the lighting and HVAC are available (if not, temporary installation).

4.

PREREQUISITES

a)
The main and auxiliary power systems have been turned over to the commissioning team and the
commissioning engineers are to be aware of the electrical distribution system of the plant.
b)

All the factory test report and operation manuals are to be available for review.

c)

All the test equipment shall be prepared to fulfill the complete test and commissioning

d)
400V AC power supplies are available for energizing the 220V DC system and 230V UPS System.
(Temporary power supply).

e)
For 132KV AIS energizing, 132KV Substation should be installed completely, also all preenergizing tests should be done.
Coordinate with MOE for power energizing of 132kV AIS Breaker.
f)

Earthing switches of 132kV AIS, 15.75KV GCB and 6KV switchgear are on correct position

(closed for pre-energizing checks, opened for energizing)

g)

Ensure that all circuit breakers are in power off position initially

h)

All protective relays have been set as per Protective Relay Setting Table prepared.

The Contractor will be responsible for all the safety measure necessary to the taken before, during and after
the commissioning tests. The works will be carried out in accordance with the PLANT HSE PLAN.

Detailed attention must be given to:

Surrounding of the testing area shall be cordoned off and access restricted to authorized person.
Safety warning sign boards shall be provided.

certified.

Ensure that all the testing equipment and tools are in good handling conditions, calibrated and

Fill in formats the test results and forward them to competent authorities.

A restricted area is appointed and indicated by a partition.

The display of a dangerous place.

The door of a control panel and the board is locked.

Fence for 132KV AIS is completed.

TEST AND ENERGIZING OF 132KV AIS

5 of 8

5.1 TEST AND ENERGIZING OF DC SYSTEM

5.1.1
1)

220V/48V DC system
Complete the pre-energizing checks of 220V/48V DC systems as per the test plan and procedure of
manufacturer.

Battery charger unit (DC 220V, 48V)

DC 220V & DC 48V switchboard

Battery bank (DC 220V, 48V)

2)

Initial energizing of 220V/48V DC power supply system

Temporary install and check the 400V AC power supply to the battery chargers

Verify that all breakers are open

Energize the battery chargers and place the mode selector switch in the floating charge mode. Adjust
the float charge voltage as per manufacturer recommendations

Note : After the batteries are fully charged, the DC power systems are available to supply power to the
connected loads
-

Upon completion of initial charge, measure and record individual cell voltages and ambient
temperature as per manufacturers field test plan and procedure.

Energize DC 220V/48V switchboard

5.2
