EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

This Technical Engineering Report entitled “POWER SYSTEM

DESIGN OF 49.6 MW OIL FIRED POWER PLANT IN LAPU-LAPU CITY”
is all about evaluation and analysis of the design of Power System of
the 4X12.4MW Power Plant of East Asia Utilities Corporation.

The study/report is conducted with the purpose of evaluation

and verification of Power Plant’s Power System components as to
conformance to international and local applicable standards in Power
System design.

Safety to personnel and properties are the most critical

considerations when designing a Power System of the Power Plant.
Each Power System components has to have the required capability
to carry out its intended use during normal condition and should be
capable to withstand without damaging itself during eventualities.

The scope of this TER starts in the bus of 69kV at switchyard.

In doing Fault Calculation, Fault MVA and X/R ratio at switchyard was
obtained which is the maximum possible condition that could happen
in this 69kV bus. Each Power System components individual
impedances were gathered and then converted to per unit values
using common base. Combining these impedances were done to
come up with the Thevenin’s equivalent impedance at fault point.
Positive and Zero Sequence Network Interconnection diagram of all
four (4) shunt faults namely; Three (3) Phase Faults, Single Line to
Ground Faults, Line to Line Faults, and Double Line to Ground Faults
were being carried out. Fault duties calculation results are shown
using a table. IEEE standards in Calculating Fault currents were used.

Main equipment sizing were done as well as sizing of MV Cables.

In sizing MV cables, three (3) criteria were considered namely;
Ampacity, Voltage Drop and Short Circuit Capacity. Calculations were
also considered in Grounding System Design which include Step and
Touch Voltages, sizing of ground grid conductors and determination
of system grounding resistance.

Protection System of EAUC Power Plant is also included in this

TER. Protection System for the Generators, Transformers and Motors
are discussed which are all supported with calculations as to relay
settings based on its respective capability curves. A protection
coordination for the single biggest induction motor which is the
Seawater Pump Motor is illustrated with a TCC.

Furthermore, evaluation and analysis of results for short circuit

breaker interrupting capacities, MV cable sizing and system
grounding design reveals no major design standard issues.

Having given all required data necessary to evaluate Power

System design i.e. calculation of fault duties, equipment sizing, MV
cable sizing, evaluation and analysis of results, the Author now came
into conclusions. The Design of the Power System of a 4X12.4MW
Power Plant of EAUC conforms to International and Local applicable
standards in Power System Design. At any given circumstances and
conditions and with proper planning and implementation of Power
Plant System maintenance, safety to personnel and properties can be
assured.

The above conclusion is based on the results of evaluation and

analysis using the present maximum available Fault Duty at 69kV bus
of EAUC. Re-evaluation and re-assessment is recommended each
time and addition of generation or a load is introduced to the EAUC
Power Plant System or to the 69kV EAUC System.
