2. TESTING OBJECTIVE
TO TEST THE CHARACTERISTICS OF GENERATOR AND REACTIVE
CAPABILITY RESPONSES OF GENERATOR.
i)
MEASUREMENT OF WINDING , INSULATION RESISTANCE
ii) OPEN & SHORT CIRCUIT CHARACTERISTICS
iii) REACTIVE CAPABILITY CURVE RESPONSE CHECKING
3.PROPOSAL
I
SHORT CIRCUIT CHARACTERISTIC
GENERATOR PHASE TERMINALS ARE SHORTED TOGETHER.
MACHINE IS EXCITED AT THE FULL SPEED OF PRIME MOVER(STEAM
TURBINE). A CHARACTERISTIC CURVE IS PLOTTED BETWEEN
EXCITATION CURRENT AND GENERATOR CURRENT
II

OPEN CIRCUIT CHARACTERISTIC

GENERATOR PHASE TERMINALS ARE OPENED AS USUAL.
MACHINE IS EXCITED AT THE FULL SPEED OF PRIME MOVER(STEAM
TURBINE). A CHARACTERISTIC CURVE IS PLOTTED BETWEEN
EXCITATION CURRENT AND GENERATOR TERMINAL VOLTAGE.
GENERATOR PROTECTIONS ARE ONE-BY-ONE THROUGHLY
CHECKED. GENERATOR PTs ARE PHASE IN-PHASE OUT WITH GRID

PTs. WITHIN PERMISSIBLE LIMITS OF VOLTAGE DIFFERENCE (4%) &

FREQUENCY (0.1 Hz) ,GENERATOR IS SYNCHRONISED WITH GRID.
4.SERVICES REQUIRED
GENERATOR CIRCUIT BREAKER,EXCITATION SYSTEM,FIRE
PROTECTION SYSTEM,220 V DC SUPPLY,DM CW SYSTEM, LUBE OIL
SYSTEM,AUX COOLING WATER SYSTEM,HYDROGEN COOLING SYSTEM,
GENERATOR PROTECTION SYSTEM
5.0 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
I)
FIRE EXTINGUISHER SYSTEMS READINESS
II) GENERATOR CABIN IS TO BE LOCKED AND INSPECTION WINDOW
MUST BE GLASS COVERED.
III) GENERATOR ONLINE/DANGER 21 KV CAUTION BOARD TO BE FIT
IV) MEN & MATERIALS TO BE KEPT AWAY FROM GENRATOR
6. EMERGENCY PROCEDURE
GENERATOR TO BE TRIPPED. EXCITATION & GENERATOR TRANSFORMER
BACKCHARGING TO BE PUT OFF. CO2 WILL BE RELEASED ON FIRE
DETECTION.
7. STATE OF THE PLANT
AFTER THE ERECTION OF GENERATOR,H2 GAS TO BE FILLED IN
THE ROTOR AFTER PASSING THE HYDROGEN LEAKAGE SYSTEM.COOLING
SYSTEM TO BE IN CIRCULATWED MODE. BEARING COOLINGS TO BE
ENSURED.POWER & CONTROL CIRCUIT OF GENERATOR & EXCITATION
SYSTEM TO BE VERIFIED. FIRE PROTECTION SYSTEM KEPT READY.
8. COMMISSIONING PROCEDURE
CHECK THE POLARISATION INDEX & WINDING RESISTANCE
VALUES OF GENERATOR ARE WITHIN THE PERMISSIBLE LIMITS AS PER
STANDARD. NO PROTECTION OPERATED .EXCITATION SYSTEM IS READY
FOR GIVING FULL EXCITATION. THEN DO THE PROCEDURES AS IN SEC
3.0
9. COMPLETION CRETERIA
GENERATOR IS WITHSTANDING FULL LOAD WITH PERMISSIBLE
VARIATION OF ITS PARAMETERS LIKE WINDING TEMP,FRAME TEMP
ETC. TRIAL RUN OF GENERATOR IS SUCESSFULLY COMPLETED
