132 KVA Grid Station and Their Components of Islamabad Electric Supply Company (IESCO)

Uploaded by

Muhammad Asif Iqbal

The document discusses components and functioning of 132 KVA grid stations operated by Islamabad Electric Supply Company (IESCO). It describes the distribution substations that step down voltages for consumer supply. Grid stations have advantages like lower customer costs and reliable emergency power, but also challenges like maintenance costs. The author visited four grid stations - I.10, Satellite Town, Cantt, and Zero Point. These stations receive power from multiple sources and use a ring system to provide backup in case of issues. A single line diagram shows typical components and power flow in a grid station.

1. 4. DISTRIBUTION SUBSTATION
These substations are located near the consumer’s localities and step down to 440V 3-phase, 4-wire for
supplying to the consumers. The voltage between any two phases is 400V & betwee n any phase and
neutral it is 220V.

1.5. Advantage and Disadvantage of GS


 Electrical powers are available for customer at lower cost.
 Energy flow is continuous and available for emergency use.
 Better regulation of voltage wit control frequency and power factor.
 It helps to maintain the record of generation, load to manage load shading etc.
 Reduce fault timing with safety of humans and transmission networks.

While some disadvantage also cater in this situation,

 Cost of system operation and its maintenance must be increase and complex.
 It affect the environment and unsafe during war.
 Difficult to add or remove the power lines mean difficult to expand the network.
 It will be highly costly due to heavy equipment installation and their maintenance.
 Additional load cost on consumer due to theft short circuit etc.
 Due to maintenance, faults and lighting affect the continuity of supply.

1.6. Gris station visit by us


 I.10 grid station 132/11 KVA
 Satellite town grid station 132/11 KVA
 Cantt grid station 132/11KVA
 Zero point grid station 132/11KVA

1.6.1. I.10 Grid Station


I.10 GS have initial capacity of 20/26 MVA in 10 feeders cover area of Islamabad and
Rawalpindi. GS in IESCO exists in ring system mean it can give and take supply, so it contain 2
source of supply one from T/line 132kv GSS Zero point (ISD-2) and second from 132kv GSS H-11
(ISH-2). So I-10 GSS feed from 132kv GSS Zero point and H-11.

1.6.2. Satellite Grid Station


It is also in ring system it have 2 source one from I-8 GSS and other one from MES GSS. It means
GSS take supply from anyone and provide other one.

1.6.3. Cantt Grid Station


Similarly GSS contain 2 source, it feed from 132kv GSS of AGL GSS (Attcok generation limited)
and Chaklala GSS.

1.6.4. Zero point Grid Station


Zero point GSS contain 2 source 220kva GS Sangjani (AIS) and other 220kva Uni GS (GIS). One
source Sangjani 220kva step down 132kva in zero point and Sangjani feed from Burhan GS
which feed from Tarbela power house. While it has 3 outgoing circuit I-10, I-8 (IJP) via and
Satellite town.

1.7. Single line Key Diagram


Single line key diagram of CANTT grid station, In which we see it have 2 source of main bus bar

One is Islamabad and other one is chaklala cantt And in ring system it can take supply from one

Source to and provide supply other source in case Of emergency. At start we have line bay
which Feed into main bus bar and after it connect with Transformer bay and a power
transformer and Current transformer and isolator before incoming panel in control room. It
also indicate a capacitor bank for power factor increase. While at the end we have incoming
and outgoing feeder for distribution of power supply to the consumers for domestic and
commercial use. Similarly other grid stations have same type of diagram but every grid station
have different power source and outgoing panel. According to the capacity of grid station the
protection and other grid equipment install with respect to them.

2. SUBSTATION CHARACTERISTICS
 Each circuit is protected by its own circuit breaker and hence plant outage does not
necessarily result in loss of supply.
 A fault on the feeder or transformer circuit breaker causes loss of the transformer and
feeder circuit, one of which may be restored after isolating the faulty circuit breaker.
 A fault on the bus section circuit breaker causes complete shutdown of the substation.
All circuits may be restored after isolating the faulty circuit breaker.
 Maintenance of a feeder or transformer circuit breaker involves loss of the circuit.
