In order to be sure that all voltages arrive in the right polarity following can be done.

Before any use of power.

Use of a battery 9 volts and of an analog dc millivoltmeter. .

The circuit breaker Q12  should be ON in the cell 1,  in the switchgear 11 kv

 circuit breakers  5F22 should be ON in the Wartsilla synchro panel.

Prepare a battery 9 volts  with two half meter wires; red for positive and black for negative.

 

First objective ;verify the polarity of  BUSSBAR L1 + and BUSSBAR L2 – and verify that this voltage is arriving where expected.

observe and note what you see

You will get 90 millivolts but the important is to see the polarity. through the transient..

if there is  a direct  movement of the switch , it is what is expected.. NOTE IT;

You can re-insert the circuit-breaker in the cell 4.

 

Do the same with the generator A;

But without extracting the circuit breaker 11 kv of the cell 7.

 

Do the same with the generator B;

But without extracting the circuit breaker 11 kv of the cell 9.

 

 

Do the same with the generators G;

But without extracting the circuit breaker 11 kv of the cell 3.

 

HAVING DONE THE TEST OF POLARITIES  IT IS POSSIBLE NOW TO CONTINUE TO TEST THE FOLLOWING

There are several options, depending on which is the more applicable.

If, bussbar G is connected to the bussbar ROSA  , we have 48 V dc for the switchgears and the panels Wartsilla.

the circuit -breakers A and B are inserted but in the position  CB_out-drawed., so that they will not enter on the bussbar if closed.

 

select MANUAL  SYNCHRONIZATION

select A to be synchronized so that relay 5K2 is ON

and will send BUSSBAR voltage and GEN A voltage to the synchronoscope, the voltmeters and the frequencemeters.

It is now possible to simulate the closing of the cb breakers A

Injecting the voltages 5F21 L1 to 4F22 L1 and 5F22 L1

Injecting the voltages 5F21 L2 to 4F22 L2 and 5F22 L2

 

The breaker should get the conditions to close

But it is not connected to be busbarr.

 

select MANUAL  SYNCHRONIZATION

select B to be synchronized so that relay 5K3 is ON

and will send BUSSBAR voltage and GEN B voltage to the synchronoscope, the voltmeters and the frequencemeters.

It is now possible to simulate the closing of the cb breakers  B

Injecting the voltages 5F21 L1 to 6F22 L1 and 6F22 L1

Injecting the voltages 5F21 L2 to 6F22 L2 and 6F22 L2

 

 

The breaker should get the conditions to close

But it is not connected to be busbarr.

THE DIRECTION OF ROTATION OF THE PHASES HAS TO BE DONE BEFORE PROCEEDING OF THE PARALLELE OPERATION OF A and B

 

 

The test of closure of the breaker GIRASSOL with the synchronoscope becomes possible.

B or A  being in operation and connected to the bussbar, simulate  the closure of the CB 11 kV cell 3 of Girassol  being first drawed out but inserted.

If the synchronoscope accept the closure, you are near of being successful.

SETTINGS OF THE SYNCHRONOSCOPE

THE SCANNING AND RESOLUTION TIME OF THE PLCs should be read in the PLCs

And included to 70 ms of the breaker, 10 ms for the relay sending the closure signal to the PLCs, 10 ms for output of the PLC  and 10 ms for the relay in the cell 11 kv, resuming at least 100 ms as closure time without the value read in the PLC;

 

MINUS 30°
