ankit shukla

TG-2 tripped on May 19th, 2022 due to a short circuit in its series compounding current transformer (SCCT) caused by a diode failure. Crews reduced TG-2's load to avoid overheating the SCCT and took readings showing high current. On May 20th, they replaced three faulty diodes in the SCCT. After restarting TG-2, they confirmed normal SCCT operation and temperature. The event was analyzed and determined to be due to the diode failure without other impacts.

ABNORMALITY REPORT OF TG-2 Page 1 of 4 CPSU/Elect./M-103/2022 Date: 25/05/2022 Sub: Abnormality report of TG-2 for SCCT over current due to Diode failure. Date& Time of Event: At 13:33Hrs. on 19/05/2022 Effect on Plant: Nil Description of events: Before event TG-1 was in off condition. TG-2 was running at @ 25.0 MW, GT was tripped on Rev Power Protection (13:09.40) & power import was @ 27.25 MW. IMP-EXP controller was in OFF condition. Common annunciation operated at 13:33Hrs. on 19/05/2022 on TG-2 GCP panel i.e. SCCT O/C / REG DC FAIL / FB SUPPLY FAIL & also Common LED no: 12 S/C O/C / REG. DC FAIL / FB SUPPLY FAIL operated on BCU relay. In the view of above, DAVR LED checked by shift technician & found that DAVR LED No: 09 on TIER 65 - Series compounding O/C operated. Also checked that SCCT DC output voltage zero volt (0.0V) even at 25.0MW on GCP panel. Also at SCCT cubicle, analog voltmeter was showing zero volt. There is no any abnormality observed & TG-2 was running normal, however in the view of event, we have checked actual current of SCCT which was 744A secondary side against rated 665A (checked on BMR i/p i.e. 6.2A, CTR 600/5), relay setting (5A), CT secondary current which was 6.2A & SCCT DC output voltages which was 10V. At 16.33Hrs after GT start-up its load increased to 20.07 MW & subsequently TG-2 load decreased up to 14.0MW in order to avoid thermal heating & damage of SCCT At 14 MW load of TG-2, SCCT secondary current measured and found 588A against rated 665A (checked on BMR i/p i.e. 4.9A, CTR 600/5) On Next day i.e. 20/05/2022, fault finding job carried out. After necessary arrangements of spare material (Diode stack), TG-2 de-synchronized to replace faulty diodes @ 09:02Hrs. After completion of job, TG-2 re-synchronized at @10:03Hrs. After GCB ON, it was observed that TG-2 has taken base load of 1.45 MW but eventually its load reduced to 0.45 MW. Load was also not increasing from DCS panel. After that, tried to increase load from Freq Raise PB on GCP but load increased after load controller active. Problem was referred to instrument & process for its analysis in accordance with valve response. Refer Annex-A, for details.
ABNORMALITY REPORT OF TG-2 Page 2 of 4 Action Taken: In the view of SCCT over current alarm, measured secondary current of SCCT on BMR in SCCT cubical at 25.0 MW load. BMR setting : 5A; CTR 600/5 Sr. No. Phase Current at CT Sec. (Amp.) Current at CT Pri. (Amp.) 1 R 6.2A 744A 2 Y 5.8A 696A 3 B 6.0A 720A (SCCT Details: Rating:150 KVA, Voltage Ratio: 108V / 130V & Current :1804A / 665A) As SCCT secondary current rating is 665A only & it was running at 744A in R-Phase, so reduced load of TG-2 gradually after GT start-up and kept TG-2 load at 14MW in consultation with process. TG-2 SCCT CT secondary & primary current readings are as below at 14.6MW load: Sr. No. Phase Current at CT Sec. (Amp.) Current at CT Pri. (Amp.) 1 R 4.9A 588A 2 Y 4.8A 576A 3 B 4.9A 588A Above activities completed @16:40Hrs. & kept TG-2 load below 15.0 MW throughout the night & GT load increased up to @ 21 MW & Import kept @ 16MW to avoid thermal heating and any damage of SCCT & job planning done for next day. On 20/05/2022, TG-2 de-synchronize at 09:02Hrs. After grounding all live bus, SCCT primary side was clamped to earthing rod for safety. SCCT all 6 nos. diode (D1, D2, D3, D4, D5 & D6) were checked with the help of ERS, found diode D2, D4 & D6 short circuited and Diode D1, D3 & D5 found healthy. Reading from multi-meter on Diode mode was as follows : D1: 0.247V; D2: 0V; D3: 0.247V; D4: 0V; D5: 0.248V & D6: 0V; D2, D4 & D6 diodes were replaced from spare healthy stack with heat-shrink unit. Installed diodes were of Ruttonsha make flat pack type Diode, Cat- R1600B22C. SCCT all 6 nos. diode (D1, D2, D3, D4, D5 & D6) were checked with the help of ERS, found o.k. Reading from multi-meter on Diode mode of attended diode stack was as follows : D1: 0.292V; D2: 0.263V; D3: 0.292V; D4: 0.263V; D5: 0.293V & D6: 0.263V; TG-2 synchronize at 10.03hrs.
