Note:
a. Buchholtz trip may some time occur simultaneously with close zone line faults without any
accumulation of gas and may be reset instantly. This type of occurrence should be noted and
brought to the notice of site-in-charge.
b. Buchholtz trip may sometime occur due to ingress of water in buchholtz relay itself or in
transformer marshalling kiosk. This type of occurrence should be brought to notice of site-in-
charge and maintenance wing for immediate and permanent solution.

normalised one after another.
 During normalization of any line or transformer after tripping, Charging current and
On-load current in all 3-phases should be recorded.
 While noting down fault records in register, the whole incident should be noted under
following heads:
1) Operated relays
2) Operated annunciations
3) Numerical relay LEDs
4) Fault data from numerical relays

 8 SWITCHING COORDINATION

8.1. Introduction
Coordination of switching operations in the grid is important for ensuring safety of personnel
and equipment as well as for ensuring adequacy and security of the grid. Before any operation of
important elements of the Grid is carried out on a User/STU system, the Users/ STU/ Licensee
shall inform SLDC, in case the grid may, or will experience an operational effect.

8.2. Switching of System Elements for first time

In line with Regulation 6 (1) of the Central Electricity Authority (Grid Standards) regulations
2010, no entity shall introduce an element in the Grid without the concurrence of SLDC . In case
a new power system element is likely to be connected with the STU system/ Inter-State
Transmission System or is to be energized for the first time, the applicant shall send a separate
request in advance along (Annexure A1-A6 at least 10 days prior & Annexure B1-B5 at least 3
days prior) with the confirmation of the following:
• Signed Connection Agreement if applicable
• Availability of telemetry of station/Element at the ERLDC/SLDC
• Availability of voice communication with the station at ERLDC/SLDC
• Interface meter installed and tested by downloading data and forwarding it to SLDC
• Single Line Diagram with marking of element to be charged & one PDF version of AutoCAD file
• Healthiness of Protection System/Protection Setting
• Statutory clearance has already been obtained
• Minutes of SCM meeting or CEA/MoP instruction to commission the elements.

8.3. Switching of Important Elements

In line with regulation 5.2 (a, b, c), of the IEGC no part of the Eastern Regional grid shall be
deliberately isolated from the rest of the Regional/ STU grid except under an emergency
conditions in which such isolation would prevent a total grid collapse and would enable early
restoration of power supply or safety of human life; when serious damage to a costly equipment
is imminent and such isolation would prevent it; when such isolation is specifically instructed by
SLDC. Any Tripping whether manual or automatic, of any of the elements of the grid shall be
precisely intimated by the corresponding User/STU to SLDC within 5 minutes of the event. SLDC
shall inform the tripping of the important Regional Grid elements to ERLDC as per their
Operating procedure.

The users/STU shall obtain ‘operation code’ from ERLDC via SLDC before carrying out any
switching operation on any of the important elements of the Eastern Regional grid of 400 kV and
above or inter-state tie line.

Page 67
 In respect of double main and transfer switching scheme at 400 kV substations, ERLDC shall be
informed whenever the 400 kV transfer bus at any substation is utilized for switching any
line/ICT. In a 400 kV substation/power station switchyard having breaker and a half switching
scheme, outage within the substation (say main or tie circuit breaker) not affecting power flow
on any line/ICT can be availed by the constituents under intimation to ERLDC, however switching
code must be taken from ERLDC control room for every such switching operation. Further, while
availing such shutdowns or carrying out switching operations it must be ensured that at least
two Dias are complete even after such outage from the view point of network reliability. Any
outage not fulfilling the above conditions needs the approval of ERLDC.

Whenever any protection system such as Bus Bar protection, LBB protection, Auto reclose etc. at
generating station or grid substation is required to be taken out of service for any maintenance
work, an operational code would be taken from SLDC/ERLDC.

8.4. Other Precautions to be taken during Switching

In addition to the above, it is necessary that special attention be paid to maintaining the
reliability of the system. The following areas need careful implementation by the concerned
constituents / stations

1. In case of a two-bus system at any substation, it must be ensured that the segregation of
feeders on the different buses is uniform. This would help in minimizing the number of
elements lost in case of a bus fault. This is assuming the availability of bus-bar protection at
such substation(s).

2. In 400 kV substations having a breaker and a half scheme, it must be ensured that the two
buses at such substation remain connected at least by two parallel paths so that any line /
bus fault does not result in inadvertent multiple outages. In case any element, say a line or
an ICT or a bus reactor, is expected to remain out for a period say beyond two hours at such
substation, the main & tie breakers of such elements should be closed after opening the line
side isolator. This should be done after taking all suitable precautions to avert inadvertent
tripping. This of course assumes that no maintenance is planned on such breakers /
isolators.
3. When the circuit breaker controlling the line is under lockout, it is not advisable to interrupt
the charging current through an isolator. The following practice is to be adopted in such
cases:
a) De-energise the bus connecting the line with lockout CB and then open the isolator
b) If due to some reason it is not possible to open the isolator in above mentioned way, it is
to be opened in such a way that no charging current is interrupted through the isolator
and the charging current is diverted to other parallel path. Such switching sequence could
be possible in case of breaker and half scheme or Double breaker Scheme, which is as
follows:
i. Open the line from remote end first with direct trip (DT) disabled. With this, now
line remains charged from the end where CB has problem.
ii. In case of one breaker and half scheme, open the isolator so that charging
current is diverted to the parallel path and after that open the CB of parallel path.
iii. In case of double breaker scheme, open the isolator of the lockout breaker
diverting the charging current to other CB and then open the CB.

Page 68
 iii. In case of double main and transfer scheme, open the isolator of lockout breaker
so that divert the charging current through transfer bus coupler and then open
the line through TBC circuit breaker.
c) It is also recommended that while vacating a bus in such cases, the operators need to
check the switching arrangement for individual feeders so as to avoid unintended loss of
any feeder.
d) The substation operators must ensure the above condition even when any lightly loaded
line is opened to control overvoltage. Such opening of lines is generally superimposed
over other line outages on account of faults created by adverse weather conditions
resulting in reduced security of the system.
4. Single pole auto-reclose facility on 400 kV / 220 kV lines should always be in service. SLDC/
ERLDC’s approval would be required for taking this facility out of service. Likewise, in case
any transfer breaker at any 400 kV substations having two main and transfer bus scheme is
engaged, the same would be informed to ERLDC via SLDC.
5. All precautions should be taken to avoid switching on to fault particularly in case of
Interconnecting Transformers. In order to avoid fault current through costly equipment
generally the line shall be charged from the far end, wherever possible. All effort should be
made to ensure that the fault has been cleared before the charging attempt in such cases.

6. A transmission line shall preferably be charged from the grid substation. Dead line charging
by a generator shall normally be avoided except during system restoration, black start, or in
case where both ends of the transmission line are terminating at a generating station.
7. During test charging of transmission line for the first time, all safety precautions shall be
taken and the transmission utility owning/operating the line shall satisfy the substation
utility at either ends with regards to statutory/safety clearances. During test charging if the
line does not hold even after two attempts, thorough checking of protection settings and
line patrolling shall be carried out.
8. Operation code issued by ERLDC for switching shall become invalid if the switching is not
completed within half an hour of issue of code. In case the switching operation is not
completed within half an hour of the issue of operation code from ERLDC, and if there is a
probability of further delay, same code could be revalidated by ERLDC within that half an
hour. The utility obtaining at one end shall intimate the other end utility .

8.5. Charging of partly constructed EHV O/H line from one end as an anti-theft
measure
Incidents of theft of conductor / tower members of the partly constructed new lines are
observed to be on the rise. In view of this, STU / Licensees are compelled to keep the partly
constructed line energised from one end, as an anti-theft measure. Requests for using existing
132kV / 220kV lines for the purpose of anti-theft charging are frequently received at SLDC.

In this regard, the following guidelines may be followed by all licensees / STU:

1. Efforts to be made to charge the line as far as possible from the nearest distribution line
(11kV / 33kV), after obtaining due approval from the concerned DISCOM
2. For this purpose, the Licensee/ User to approach the concerned DISCOM with a copy to SLDC
at least 15 days in advance of the tentative date of anti-theft charging, with a detailed plan
indicating length proposed to be charged, duration of such charging, height, spacing etc. of

Page 69
 the individual phases / conductors, size of the conductor that would remain charged,
connection arrangement with existing distribution line etc. accompanied by a clear diagram.
3. DISCOM after examining the proposal may accord approval, if feasible, with necessary
modifications of protection scheme of their distribution system.
4. In the event it is not possible to identify suitable distribution line for the anti-theft charging,
the owner of the line under construction shall approach SLDC apprising the difficulties in
charging from distribution line, with a detailed proposal for anti-theft charging from the
nearest 132kV line or 220kV line. In general, charging from a line of voltage higher than
132kV should be avoided to the extent possible.

8.6. Submission of FORMATS before charging of new power system elements:

8.6.1 All the Transmission Licensees intending to commission any transmission element, which is a
part of inter‐state transmission system, shall intimate the concerned RLDC the details as given

scheme, approval for changes in the approved scheme, technical parameters of the
transmission element required for network modeling shall be made available by Owner/STU, as
the case may be, to SLDC/ERLDC.

8.6.3. The request for charging of new transmission element and towards start of the trial operation
as per Format III shall be submitted by the Transmission Licensee to the concerned
SLDC/ERLDC, generally three (3) days prior to the date of first time charging. There could be a
separate schedule for test charging and the final schedule for trial operation, which may be
mentioned in the Format‐I itself. The Transmission Licensee shall also submit the following
documents in this regard:

8.6.4. On satisfying itself with the submitted information as stated above, the SLDC/ERLDC would
issue a provisional approval for charging to the Transmission Licensee as per Format IV . On the
designated day, the transmission licensee shall charge the transmission line and do trial
operation as per the timeline mentioned in Format III, after obtaining the real time
clearance/code from SLDC/RLDC. All attempts would be made by the real time operating
personnel at SLDC/RLDC to facilitate charging and commissioning of the new element at the
earliest, subject to availability of real time data and favourable system conditions.

8.7. SHUTDOWN Procedure:

8.7.1. Indenting Authority: Officer-in-charge who gives a requisition for shutdown of any power
system element is called Indenting Authority.
8.7.2. In case of shutdown of any 400kV element or inter-state line, the indenting authority shall
submit SLDC the proposal for shutdown to be taken in next calendar month latest by 2 nd day of
current month for approval in OCC meeting of ERPC being held in current month.

8.7.3. Request for shutdown, which were approved by OCC in previous month, has to be sent to SLDC
four(4) workdays in advance of actual date of shutdown for clearance of ERLDC.

8.7.4. On day of shutdown, indenting authority shall seek the code for availing outage from
SLDC/ERLDC (wherever applicable). The agencies involved shall endeavor to avail the outage
within 15mintues of availing the code but not later than 30 minutes. In case, due to any
contingency, the outage could not be availed within 30 minutes, a fresh code needs to be
obtained by all concerned agencies stating the reason there of.

8.7.5. As any deviation in the outage from the schedule can affect other planned shutdowns as well as
affect reliability and electricity markets, indenting agency must strictly adhere to the shutdown
timings.

8.8. Guidelines for charging of a transmission line (both end sub-stn.) after
tripping on fault or rectification of breakdown:
8.8.1. If two ends are of same voltage level, the end receiving power will charge first.

8.8.2. For line emanated from sub-stns. of same voltage levels, if one end sub-stn. is connected to a
power plant and other end sub-stn. is connected to another grid S/S of higher voltage level,
then the line will be charged first from sub-stn. further away from power plant.

8.8.3. If two ends are of different voltage levels, the line will be charged first from lower voltage level.

8.9. Guidelines for charging of a transmission line (one end sub-stn. and other
end power plant) after tripping on fault or rectification of breakdown
The line will be charged from sub-stn. end and if remains O.K., synchronization will be done by
power plant end.

8.10. Guidelines for the charging of Transmission line connecting two
generating plants after tripping on fault or outage
There is a prevailing issue on the charging of transmission line connecting two generating
complex after its outage/tripping. It has been observed sometimes that either of the utility is
not ready for charging of the line from their end after its tripping on fault/outage. This results in
the delay in the restoration of line and thus affecting the reliability of both the generating
station. In view of this, there is a need of guideline on charging of such transmission lines.

As a general guideline following may be considered

 If voltage difference between two system is more than 5 kV system which have
lower voltage should charge the line first
 In case voltage difference is less than 5 kV system which have higher fault level
should charge first
 if only one end has line reactor, then the end which is not having the line reactor
should attempt to charge first.

9 SAFETY
Safety should be given topmost priority during execution of any operation. Safety measures as
laid down by WBSETCL must be strictly followed by each employee while carrying out
operational activities.
