Industrial Training report on RAWALPORA GRID-SUBSTATION
1.INTRODUCTION
Grid Sub-Station RAWALPORA is situated at a distance of about 5 kms

from SRINAGAR via SANANTNAGAR road. The Grid Sub-Station is
fed by 132KV double circuit Pampore and 132KV double circuit
Bemina. The Grid Station has five power transformers besides that it has
six commissioned 36KV outgoing feeders namely RAWALPORA,
BAGHI MEHTAB, AIRFORCE, RANGRETH, CHANAPORA, and
SILK FACTORY, . In addition to above mentioned feeders it has three
36KV/1250A spare feeder spare 1 spare 2 spare 3, one bus coupler bay,
250kv one auxiliary bay and one shunt capacitor bay. There has been
adopted four isolator scheme on input (132 k.v) side and two isolator
scheme on output (36 k.v) side.

2.132 KV SIDE
Figure 1 : 132 K.V incoming lines

It has two double circuit arrangement of incoming lines comprising of
four 132 K.V incoming lines. Each incoming lines capable of supplying
the rated sub-station load. Such an arrangement increases the reliability
of the system. In case there is break down of one incoming line the other
line maintains supply continuity. It has duplicate bus bar system, one
main bus bar and spare bus bar. Both bus bars are connected by bus
coupler. Each incoming line is connected to bus bar through one LA,
one CT, one circuit breaker, one PT and isolator. The LAs are also

connected near the transformer terminals in order to protect them from

lightning strokes.

4.36 KV SIDE
On 36 kv side it has 2 buses; MAIN BUS, and RESERVE BUS.
Third bus is connected in case there is a damage to main bus or spare

bus, which is connected through isolators to main bus and spare bus.
It has 6 feeder, 1 auxiliary,3 spare feeder , 1 coupler transformer. Each

bay is provided with one set of (ABB MAKE) vacuum circuit breaker
(except auxiliary bay), CTS, isolators and LAS .The Power
transformer bays are connected to buses (pipe conductors) supported on
GI columns by discs with proper fittings. Besides that it has (ABB
MAKE) PTS installed in main and reserve buses.

5.36KV FEEDER BAYS
It has six commissioned feeders, one auxillary feeder and three spare
feeder. The feeder wise detail is as under:
1.36KV SILK FACTORY FEEDER

This feeder feeds only Silk factory Rajbagh (36/11 KV). Protection
adopted for 36kv feeders are Overcurrent protection and Earth Fault
protection.
2. 36KV AIRFORCE FEEDER

This feeder feeds old Airport Rangreth (36/11 KV). Protection adopted
for 36kv feeders are Overcurrent protection and Earth Fault protection.
3. 36KV RAWALPORA FEEDER

This feeder feeds the local and adjoining area of Rawalpora (36/11 KV).
4. 36KV CHANAPORA FEEDER

This feeder is used to feed the Chanapora area (36/11 KV).
5. 36KV BAGHI MEHTAB FEEDER

This feeder is used to feed the Baghi Mehtab area (36/11 KV).
6. 36KV RANGRETH FEEDER

This feeder is used to feed the industrial area of Rangreth (36/11 KV).

7. 36KV AUXILIARY FEEDER

It facilitates the internal power requirements of the station through
underground cables. It consists of power transformer (36kv/440v).

6.CONTROL ROOM
Grid control Room is the main controlling and monitoring center.

Control room houses the Control & Relay Panels by which we can
Monitor all system parameters like as bus voltage, Bus current, Import &
Dispatch of Energy, fault details etc. and can control incoming and
outgoing supply to Grid station through Remote operation. The
equipments inside control room are:
a. 132KV panels.
b. 36KV panels.
c. Battery charger.
d. Battery bank.
e. DC distribution board.
f. AC distribution board.
g. Power factor panel.

7.MAIN EQUIPMENTS
7.1 Isolating switches:

These are used to disconnect a part of system which is under
maintenance and repairs. Isolators are operated only when the lines in
which they are connected carry no current.
Figure 9: Isolator

7.2 Circuit breaker:

It opens or closes a circuit under normal as well as faulty
conditions. It can be operated manually under normal conditions and
automatically under faulty conditions. On 132 KV side it has SF6 circuit
breakers and on 36KV side it has vacuum circuit breakers.
Figure 8: Circuit breaker name plate.

Figure 9:SF6 Circuit breaker
7.3 Metering and indicating instruments

Various metering and indicating instruments installed in Rawalpora sub-
station are:
Ammeters
Voltmeters
Energy meters
Power factor meters etc.

7.4 Current transformer:

It is a step up transformer which steps down current to a ratio
suitable for measuring instrument and protective devices.
Figure 10: Current transformer

7.5 Potential transformer:
It is a step down transformer which steps down voltage to a ratio

suitable for measuring instruments and protective devices.
Figure 11: Potential transformer.

7.6 Relay:
It is a protective device that detects the fault and initiates the
operation of circuit breaker to isolate the defective element from rest of
the system.
Figure 12 : Relay.

7.7 Lightning arrester:

It is a protective device which conducts high voltage surges to the
ground.
Figure 13: Lightning arrester

7.8 Bus bars:

Bus bars are used to connect electrically number of lines operating at
same voltage. Incoming and outgoing lines in receiving station are
connected to the bus bar. Commonly used bus bar arrangements are:
Single bus bar arrangement

Single bus bar arrangement with sectionalisation
Double bus bar arrangement
In this receiving station double bus bar arrangement is utilised .
Figure 14: Bus bar arrangement

7.9 Battery bank:
Battery banks are used for functioning of automatic circuits,

relays and essential lights of station under circumstances when
there is no supply from input side.
Batteries are kept in battery room where they are

given D.C supply for charging using chargers. Mostly used
batteries are:
Lead acid battery

Alkaline battery
Here lead acid batteries are used.

8.CAPACITOR BANK
It is used for power factor improvement. The equipment used here for
this purpose are static capacitors. Power factor improvement is required
because most power loads are inductive taking lagging current.
The capacitor draws a leading current and partly or completely

neutralises the lagging reactive component of load current. Thus it
improves power factor.
Figure 15: capacitor bank

9.WAVE TRAP
It is used for traping the high frequency communication signals sent on
power line from the remote sub station. It diverts this communication
signal to the telecom panel in the sub station control room.
Figure 16: Wave trap
