14 1. Overview Requirements on electrical supply systems: more energy efficient, better energy management safety (including personnel safety, fire and equipment safety) adequate power quality (harmonics and over-voltages) able to handle modern information technology systems compliant with EMC and EMI regulations (electrical systems ) EMC: Electromagnetic Compatibility EMI: Electro Magnetic Interference provide monitoring systems to assess condition of installation

15 Means and requirements on an electrical supply system May include following features: Specified voltage levels Limited harmonic content (quality of supply) Method of supply Safety of supply Reliability of supply Maintenance Electrical protection Back-up supply (UPS) DC supply

16 2. Power Requirements

17 general free-standing mobile equipment supply (GPOs = General Power Outlets) Power demands must be known before details of supply configuration can be determined and designed. Obtained by estimation of maximum demand for electrical power. This has 3 components: manufacturing equipment requirements large motors, arc furnaces, assembly lines, ovens, presses general fixed wiring infrastructure requirements lighting, heating, lifts

18 Maximum demand assessment calculation using Appendix C (Wiring Rules) to determine demand for domestic and commercial type loads. when exact load details are unknown, use an estimate technique called After Diversity Maximum Demand (ADMD) Based on results from similar installations, typical load density values (VA/m 2 ) are derived for different types of floor area usage. Data available for commercial (e.g. offices, shopping centers, hotels, theatres) and light industrial premises

19 For general estimate, the following gives typical power demand requirements per unit area of floor space: EnergyAustralia NS0112 Design standards for industrial/commercial developments

20 In estimation of maximum demand, should make allowance for future growth in power usage. Typically: residential premises, 10% fully air-cond offices, 15-20% commercial premises, 20-25% shopping centres, light/medium industrial, 25% Include provision for possible additional switchboard circuits. Also include in initial consideration selection of transformer capacity and cable sizes for feeder circuits and reticulation of power.

21 Once incoming supply is specified, requirements can then be detailed for: incoming cable rating main transformer capacity substation size and capacity switchboard size and capacity. Only when this final design is completed can fault level calculations be performed to determine fuse and switchgear ratings and other protection needs.

22 Calculation of maximum demand Appendix C AS/NZS 3000:2007 domestic installation (use Table C1) single multiple non-domestic installation (use Table C2) residential type (e.g. hotel, hospital) others (e.g. factory, shop, business office)

35 3.1 Voltage levels Supply voltage levels available from electricity distributors for use in commercial and industrial locations in urban areas: High voltage: 11 kv, 3-phase supply [by cable or overhead line] Low voltage: (a) 230/400V, 3-phase, 4-wire system (b) single-phase, 230V, 2-wire system [underground/aerial cable, or overhead line]

36 Once power demand and supply requirements determined (by system designer), then contact appropriate electricity distributor. They have additional requirements which must be complied with before they connect supply from their network to the site, e.g. EnergyAustralia ES1 Customer Connection Information Also requirements on a state-wide basis which applies to all distributors in that state, e.g NSW Service and Installation Rules. New regulations allow contestability among utilities in the supply of electricity to consumers. Electricity provider may be different from the actual electricity distributor.

37 Accredited Service Provider = an entity accredited by the Department of Fair Trading in accordance with the Electricity Supply Regulation Three levels: Level 1: Construction of Transmission and Distribution works. High and low voltage overhead and underground reticulation, including substations Level 2: Service cables and metering installation. Install underground and overhead service cables being the interface between the network and customer s premise, and include metering services. Level 3: Design. Design and preparation of plans for the proposed overhead/underground distribution network including street lighting. The electricity distributor is of course an accredited Level 1, 2, 3 service provider.

38 What is an energy distributor? Distributors own and manage high and low voltage network of 'poles', 'wires' or pipes that deliver electricity or gas to your home or business. They are responsible for the quality and reliability of your energy service. How is that different to an energy retailer? Energy retailer on the other hand sells you the electricity and gas for your home or business and bills you for what you use. Energy Retailers for NSW: the three distributors, AGL, Origin Energy, True Energy, etc. Find more information from NSW Department of Water and Energy web site.

39 Electricity distributors for NSW

40 Electricity distributors for NSW For NSW state, three distributors: EnergyAustralia, Integral Energy, Country Energy Distributor for UNSW is EnergyAustralia RailCorp is the distributor for installations on railway land within the railway 1500V DC electrified track area. CountryEnergy covers more than three quarters of NSW and parts of southern Queensland. It includes more than 200,000 km of power lines and 1.4 million poles

41 EnergyAustralia Electricity distributor for Sydney, Central Coast and Hunter regions of NSW Distributes ~ 25,000 GWh of electricity annually, to 1.4 million customers through: More than 1000km of above ground 132kV HV cable Almost 500km of underground 132kV HV cable More than 400km of 66kV cables. More than 2200km of 33kV cables.

42 Integral Energy Network area covers: Sydney s Greater West, the Southern Highlands, and the Illawarra.

43 Limits on connection and operation of equipment Equipment in an installation can cause: Excessive voltage fluctuations (eg welding machines, starting motors) Excessive distortion (eg. rectifiers, frequency converters) Interference with frequency load control system Customers required to take corrective actions.

44 Limit on load current change NSW SIR Sect Equipment may be restricted by the change in current that occurs when switching on/off or between operation settings.

45 Limit on motors NSW SIR Sect Starting current must not cause voltage dip to exceed 5% for 20ms.

46 Balancing of load (for three-phase supply) NSW SIR Sect maximum current in one phase is no more than 25A above current in any other phase total current in neutral conductor not to exceed highest simultaneous current in any active conductor.

47 Protection from prospective short circuit currents NSW SIR Sect maximum current that flows under short-circuit fault is a function of impedance of supply source and cables. for 230/400V systems and at connection point for service up to 400A: suburban residential areas: 10kA commercial and industrial areas: 25kA on railway land (RailCorp): 6kA

48 Power factor The power factor of an AC electric power system is defined as the ratio of the real power flowing to the load to the apparent power in the circuit, and is a dimensionless number between 0 and 1 (frequently expressed as a percentage, e.g. 0.5 pf = 50% pf). Real power is the capacity of the circuit for performing work in a particular time. Apparent power is the product of the current and voltage of the circuit. Due to energy stored in the load and returned to the source, or due to a non-linear load that distorts the wave shape of the current drawn from the source, the apparent power will be greater than the real power.

49 Power factor In an electric power system, a load with a low power factor draws more current than a load with a high power factor for the same amount of useful power transferred. The higher currents increase the energy lost in the distribution system, and require larger wires and other equipment. Because of the costs of larger equipment and wasted energy, electrical utilities will usually charge a higher cost to industrial or commercial customers where there is a low power factor.

50 Power factor Linear loads with low power factor (such as induction motors) can be corrected with a passive network of capacitors or inductors. Non-linear loads, such as rectifiers, distort the current drawn from the system. In such cases, active or passive power factor correction may be used to counteract the distortion and raise the power factor. The devices for correction of the power factor may be at a central substation, spread out over a distribution system, or built into power-consuming equipment.

51 Power factor correction / Capacitor installation NSW SIR Sect Industrial/commercial loads require significant reactive power (kvars), e.g. motors, furnaces, electric discharge lighting must maintain p.f. not less than 0.9 lagging No restriction on where to install p.f. correction equipment in the circuit More details in Section 6 of NSW SIR (Capacitor installations).

52 EnergyAustralia requires: Initial designed maximum load on any distributor must not exceed 75% of the distributor s nominal rating. This is to provide margin for load growth and paralleling requirement.

53 3.2 Quality of supply An important consideration because: increasing use of power electronics has introduced a higher harmonic level into supply much of equipment now in use (IT) is more susceptible to voltage variation, transient overvoltages and harmonics.

54 Quality of supply based on consideration of: frequency of AC supply voltage level fluctuation voltage waveform distortion (harmonics) interference with communications and control equipment transient over-voltages

55 3.3 Method of supply Up to ~200 kva in demand: incoming supply would commonly be by a low voltage 3-phase, 415/240V, supply obtained directly from distributor s LV mains by either overhead or underground connection. may need 3-phase for 3-phase loads NSW SIR 2009

56 Up to 3000 kva: utility-owned transformer(s) installed in utility-owned and maintained substation, located on consumer s premises. supply to consumer s electrical system (at point of attachment to consumer s terminals) would be at low voltage (415/240V) from secondary of transformer. transformers: 11kV/415V and kva in power rating. oil-filled transformers if installed outdoors or dry-type if inside a building. Dry-type units reduce fire hazards within buildings.

57 Greater than 3000 kva: supply to consumer would be at high voltage, most likely 11 kv consumer provides and owns HV substation and switchgear installation consumer handles maintenance and switching operations associated with substation consumer required to employ electrical staff or contractors adequately trained in maintenance and operation of high voltage equipment.

58 3.4 Type of supply connection high or low voltage from distributor s supply, by either: aerial lines (with either bare, covered or bundled conductors) underground cables (either 3 single phase or 1 three-phase cable) low voltage supply from utility on-site substation, by means of any of: low voltage aerial lines low voltage underground cables low voltage busbar trunking system (> 2000A per phase) dedicated HV line from utility HV substation. By either overhead line or underground cable, depending on location and requirements.

59 Supply from overhead distribution mains. Ref.: NSW Service and Installation Rules

60 Supply from overhead distribution mains. Ref.: NSW Service and Installation Rules

61 Supply from underground distribution mains. Ref.: NSW Service and Installation Rules

62 UNSW EnergyAustralia supplies 11kV from Randwick (14MVA) and Clovelly (8MVA) zone substations. Two points of supply, separate Campus network: owned and operated by university, 11kV underground cables, 20 substations, split into three rings. Mid and lower campus rings fed from Randwick zone; Upper campus ring fed from Clovelly zone In event of failure of one zone substation, entire campus can be fed from other zone substation (at reduced capacity).

63 3.5 Safety : personnel safety installation required adherence to all relevant Codes and Standards. electrical hazards (electric shocks, equippotential areas, anti-static locations). fire hazards (overheating) mechanical hazards (rotating machines) lifts, emergency lighting, fire extinguishing systems, alarm and evacuation systems

64 3.6 Reliability of supply Factors to be considered include : level of reliability required depends on application supply voltage level (HV supply more reliable than LV) redundancy in circuits proper protection design (discrimination, etc) proper maintenance of equipment choice of equipment.

65 3.7 Maintenance Issues: Moisture control Ventilation and cooling Corrosion, wear and tear. Approaches: Testing as required Regular visual inspection and testing Reliability centered monitoring and testing (most favored method).

66 3.8 Back-up supply Many applications require some form of back-up, e.g hospital operating theatre basic system or maintenance of full supply. un-interruptible supply systems (UPS) are becoming more common in building services. use diesel generators or battery operated power electronic inverter systems

67 3.9 DC supply Rare. Required in some industrial locations, e.g for adjustable speed motors, electrolysis etc Generate DC by modern power electronic converters Older installations may still use rotating machine DC generators driven by AC motors or even mercury arc rectifier systems.

68 4. In-house Distribution System 4.1 Supply system layout options 4.2 Substation 4.3 Switchboards 4.4. Cables, busbars etc 4.5 Voltage regulation and power factor

69 4.1 Supply system layout options Simple radial system Expanded radial system Primary selective system Primary loop system Secondary selective system Secondary spot network Ring bus system

70 1. Simple radial system Load break fused switch Transformer Low voltage air C/B (draw-out type) IEEE-Std For small loads. One primary service and distribution supply transformer supplies all feeders. Simplest possible arrangement, no duplication or redundancy. Cheapest, least reliable option.

71 2. Expanded radial system Medium or high-voltage C/B (draw-out type) Load break fused switch Low voltage air C/B (draw-out type) Two or more radial systems. For larger loads. Similar advantages / disadvantages as simple radial system.

72 3. Primary selective system Air break switch Alternative supply from two sources on primary side of transformer(s). Improved reliability but at higher cost. Maintenance possible without loss of supply.

73 4. Primary loop system Greater reliability in case of primary cable failure. Load can be supplied from either end of cable. Finding cable fault may be difficult or dangerous in some cases (one section may be energized from either end).

74 5. Secondary selective system Pair of substations connected through a normally open secondary tie CB. If primary feeder or transformer fails, main secondary feeder CB is opened and tie CB closes. General operation of secondaries is as radial systems. Maintenance is possible. Good reliability. Requires consideration of loading if sustained loss of one circuit.

75 6. Secondary spot network Loads supplied from 1 common secondary busbar with parallel primary feeders. Use protectors to each secondary connection. If primary feeder fails, protector CB prevents reverse fault in-feed by opening in such an event. Most reliable system. Expensive. Used extensively for high load density applications such as large commercial buildings. Rarely used in industry.

76 7. Ring bus system Will automatically isolate a fault. No interruption of supply for single faults. High cost (need more components). Allows safe maintenance without loss of general supply.

77 One-line diagram of a large industrial plant. Ref.: Industrial and commercial power system handbook

78 4.2 Substation Include following items of equipment general enclosure, transformer(s), HV switchgear, protection system, backup battery systems, monitoring equipment for energy, voltage, current, power factor etc

79 4.3 Switchboards (switchgear assemblies) Include following items of equipment main switchgear unit, output feeder cabling to various loads (or floors of building) together with their separate switchgear and protection. internal busbar system with rectangular busbars used to interconnect feeder circuits. protection: means (relays, fuses, CTs), coordination, internal arcing detection Quite specific in design.

80 4.4 Cables, busbars, etc Important factors to be considered: current ratings, insulation ratings fire performance, segregation of circuits, bundling of cables (effect on thermal rating), magnetic fields and any potential interference effects IP [Ingress Protection] requirements to prevent contamination ingress.

81 4.5 Voltage regulation and power factor For LV supply, nominal voltage is 230/400V +10% -6% at 50Hz (AS Standard Voltages) Deviation from nominal voltage can cause problems: equipment overheating, light dimming or flickering etc. AS3000 requires voltage drop between point of supply and any point in electrical installation not exceed 5% of nominal voltage when conductors are carrying maximum demand. Voltage drop in utility service line should not exceed 3% of nominal voltage when at maximum demand. This is mainly a requirement applied to distributors and their service cable impedance.

82 Voltage drop not to exceed 5% consumer mains submain final subcircuit load load point of supply main switchboard MSB distribution board DB Voltage drop not to exceed 5% i.e. 1-phase (230V) = 11.5V 3-phase (400V) = 20V

83 5. Voltage Drop 5.1 Voltage drop determination methods 5.2 Determination for supply 5.3 Determination for transformers 5.4. Parallel operations

84 For typical length of 50 Hz building system supply circuits, shunt capacitive reactance of cables is negligible and voltage drop calculations can be done adequately by use of short line approximation represented by equivalent circuit:

85 For a lagging load

86 Accurate enough for general use. Used for voltage drop calculations extensively. Require values of R and X which are constant, and I and φ which can vary. Regulation is load dependent.

87 For a leading load

90

91 5.3 Voltage drop determination for transformers

92

93 Alternatively: Use of known data for transformers using impedances

94 5.4 Parallel operation of transformers and feeders

95 Parallel lines or transformers divide loads in inverse proportion to their impedance. Important for transformers to be matched in impedance when they are operated in parallel. If not matched, one may be overloaded. Also, voltage difference causes circulating current and core saturation.

96 When T1 is fully loaded, T2 is loaded at only 50% Can try to operate T2 on a higher voltage tap position to boost its output current.

97 6. Substations

98 Substations Location should be at load centre if possible, so as to keep voltage drop to minimum and to assist in maintaining voltage regulation within requirements. In high rise buildings, extensive factory or sites with many buildings, a number of substations may be required to distribute power equitably. Normally connected in a ring main system at high voltage (11 kv). Supply authority will normally determine type and size of substation requirements for a specific situation.

99 Types of substations Pole-mounted substation. Pad-mounted substation. Outdoor (fenced) enclosures. Outdoor (building) enclosure. Outdoor transformer with indoor control gear. Indoor basement or ground-floor substation.

100 315kVA 22kV pole-mounted transformer Pad-mounted substation 140MVA 132kV generator transformer

101 Pole-mounted substation Main component: un-enclosed 11kV/415V oil-insulated transformer, rated up to ~500 kva for providing supply to the building at 415/240V. Substation is also equipped with HV fuses of expulsion or high rupturing capacity (HRC) type, surge arresters or arcing gaps, low voltage HRC fuses, and earthing system for connection of transformer neutral. EA s pole-mounted transformer ratings are from 16kVA to 63kVA for single-phase, and 25kVA to 400kVA for 3-phase. Height restriction: 3.6m above ground if location is >0.5m away from kerb, or 5m elsewhere. EA s network designed to maximum fault level of 18.4kA at 11kV. At 415V, maximum fault level at a pole-mounted transformer is 13.3kA.

102 Pad-mounted substation Metal enclosed kiosk-type cubicles mounted on ground. Main component is again an oil-filled transformer of similar or possibly higher rating than for pole mount type. Kiosk incorporates similar protection and control-gear to polemounted substation. Voltages are also 11kV/415V and maximum power levels are typically 1000kVA.

103 Outdoor (fenced) enclosures Outdoor fenced enclosure. Transformer may be un-enclosed, with appropriate switches, protection and control-gear within the enclosure. Voltages are typically 11kV/415 V and power ratings are kva. In some industrial sites voltages and power levels may be much higher than the above (primarily applicable to building services only).

104 Outdoor (building) enclosures Dedicated small building containing transformers and other usual items of equipment listed above. Voltages are 11kV/415V, power ratings are up to ~5000 kva. Outdoor transformer + indoor control gear Consists of an open outdoor transformer with a small building for other equipment as outlined above. Voltages are 11kV/415V, power ratings are up to ~5000 kva. Indoor basement or ground-floor substation As above, but located indoors.
