Gas Power Systems Safety requirements

Commissioning book General information
1154163 IC-001191 - 11 299574 GTU00 -
Safety requirements
All EHS (Environment, Health & Safety) rules and recommendations, recorded in the EHS Construction Plan must be ap-
plied, especially wearing required PPE (Personal Protective Equipment). No job can be started if people or equipment
safety is compromised. This a GE Global Policy requirement and nothing can lead to ignore these safety rules.
Here is a non-exhaustive list of the main hazards encountered during commissioning:
● Electrical hazard: all needed precautions must be taken to prevent contact with electrical parts under voltage. Be
conscious that on generator, residual voltage may be present even if the unit is at standstill and not excited.
● Mechanical hazard: all needed precautions must be taken to prevent contact with rotating parts (shaft-line, motor,
pumps, etc).
● Fire or explosion hazard: all needed precautions must be taken to prevent fire around facilities. Do not store flammable
materials near working zones and monitor any ignition sources (welding machine, naked flame, hot gas release point,
etc). Hot work permit procedure is mandatory.
● Burning hazard: all needed precautions must be taken to prevent contact with hot surfaces or hot gases. Pay a par-
ticular attention to hot air, gas or steam pipes and release points. If permanent insulation or barriers are not in place,
use temporary signalization to prevent access to hazardous areas.
● Suffocation hazard: all needed precautions must be taken to prevent asphyxiation or suffocation. Use temporary
signalization to prevent access to hazardous areas.
● Noise hazard: all needed precautions must be taken to prevent injuries due to high level of noise. Use temporary
signalization to prevent access to hazardous areas and enforce PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) wearing such as
ear-defenders in the hazardous areas.
Different procedures are set up to manage and minimize risks at site and they must be strictly enforced:
● Work Permit and Hot Work Permit procedures

● LOTO (Lock-Out / Tag-Out) procedure
● Confined space entry procedure
● Other specific procedures, depending on country, client, site environment, etc.

Document management & structure

1. Gas turbine commissioning book purpose
The Gas turbine commissioning book is a guide for GE-commissioning engineers or GE-technical advisors to perform the
start-up of the Gas turbine and its direct associated auxiliaries. It is also a record of the main tests' results and a mean to
follow-up the progress of the commissioning. It gathers information from the end of the installation to the normal safe
state of functioning. It is the guaranty that all needed tests, settings, calibrations and logic sequences verifications have
been performed according relevant drawings and specifications.
2. Quality considerations
2.1. Documentation management
Please note that this manual can be used only with GE trained, qualified and authorized people and that significant
modification can be made only by GEEPE/GPO/GFO/ Methods & Innovation team as per instruction:
● GPOQDBFT-GFO-I-0190: Maîtrise des documents installation & mise en service

● GPOQDBFT-GFO-I-0190-en: Erection and commissioning documents management
For support or feed-back on documentation, you may send an e-mail to the methods team at: methods.commission-
ing@ge.com. We remind you that for technical assistance, the only tool is PAC servicenow [https://gepowerpac.ser-
vice-now.com].
On "Equipment Offer + Technical Advisory" contracts, modification can be done at site, under approval and responsibility
of the site Lead TA, his/her signature has to be appended near each modification with the date.
Any page (data records, trends) that needs to be added will be numbered by adding a letter after the previous original
page number. For example, the page inserted after page n/xxx will be numbered: n-A/xxx, the following n-B/xxx, where
xxx represents the initial total number of pages for the document.
At the end of the commissioning, the original filled Commissioning Book must be sent on paper and on numeric support
to GPO/QUA. You have to address it to:

2.2. Quality reminder
The installation and commissioning of the power plant is quality sustained through the Turn Over Package (TOP) process.
The TOP is the record kept as a proof of the right installation and commissioning of the plant.
Commissioning can lead to disassembly of some components after the system was turned over from installation to com-
missioning. Any equipment or component, which was checked OK and recorded as so through the Turn Over Package
(TOP) during installation, will need to be re-certified (checked OK and recorded) after being reassembled. Disassembled
means (nonexhaustive list): disconnected, unbolted or dismounted for commissioning purpose, it does not include nor-
mal or maintenance access doors / panels opening nor instrumentation tubing / control wiring connections that are
guaranteed to be OK through the commissioning.
The new records must be made available through the TOP to demonstrate the installation conformity, prior to turn over
the equipment from commissioning to client.

3.2. System commissioning book structure

The system commissioning book describes the commissioning process for each system mentioned previously. Usually,
it is divided in 4 chapters:
GTUxx_SCP: System commissioning procedure
GTUxx_TEP01: Test execution procedure #01 - Post installation checks
GTUxx_TEP02: Test execution procedure #02 - Stand-still checks

GTUxx_TEP03: Test execution procedure #03 - Rotating tests
A complementary procedure called GTUxx_TEPCL (Test execution procedure - Flushing & Cleaning) can be added if a
cleaning of the system at site is required prior start-up. This procedure is mainly meant to record evidences that the
cleaning was properly achieved.
3.2.1. System commissioning procedure (SCP) content

The system commissioning procedure describes how the commissioning process of a system will be conducted. It spec-
ifies:
● The global composition of the system to be commissioned
● A safety reminder about the specific risks generated by the commissioning of the system
● A graphic representation of the commissioning progression for the system
3.2.2. Test execution procedure #01 (TEP01) content

The test execution procedure #01 describes what to check prior power-energization of the system. These are the post-
installation checks, mainly composed with P&ID verifications, loop-checks and logic sequences verifications. Note that
for Mark VIe™ (or other PLC-based system) the sequence may slightly differ due to the need of having these devices
powered for loop-checks. It specifies:
● The initial conditions needed from installation & control as well as specific tooling needed
● The post erection checks description for all sub-systems
● The final conditions leading to be ready to energize the whole system

The test execution procedure #02 describes what to check prior first fire (or first rotation) of the unit. These are the
stand-still checks, mainly composed with electric motor starting, hydraulic valves calibrations, regulations pre- tuning.
It specifies:

Commissioning progression
This chapter describes graphically the global commissioning progression and allow the record of the main project dates.
1. General remark on the site-execution

For each system, the chapter Key dates record allows to record the completion level of the system.
However, the 100% completion of a TEP is not a requirement to start the next TEP. This is a decision and a responsibility of
the GE-commissioning engineer or the GE-technical advisor. He/She can decide to start the next TEP if all safety require-
ments are met. There is no link between GTU number and order to perform commissioning.

3. Gas pressure test & nitrogen purge

3.1. Gas pressure test
To ensure that the gas circuit does not present any leakages, a pressure test must be carried by increasing pressure,
preferably with nitrogen (N2), and using soapy water and/or gas detector to detect any leakage.
Please coordinate with mechanical team and refer to fuel skid documentation for valve positioning and specific instruc-
tions
Caution
In case a leakage is detected, apply proper LOTO procedure to empty the line prior any intervention
Observations :


1154163 IC-001191 - 11 IHG-000206-11 HRSGU07 -
Note
After the leak test, it is advisable to keep nitrogen in the circuit to preserve it form moisture entry
Caution
After the test, pressure must be downed to less than 6 bars to prevent injuries / damages in case of acci-
dental release
Record pressure test date (YYYY-MM-DD). . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
3.2. Nitrogen purge
Caution
Before fuel gas admission into the system, it is mandatory to purge it with nitrogen in order to prevent
creation of an explosive mixture
Please coordinate with mechanical team and refer to fuel skid documentation for valve positioning and specific instruc-
tions
The purging process for the gas supply system is to continued until oxygen (O2) level measured in the purged gas has
been reduced to less than 5% by volume. However, GE recommends going under 2% per volume to get safer conditions.

3.4. Current feedbacks test
Important
Check carefully your optic-fiber connection at the end of the test; it may have been disconnected by multiple
door manipulations
The crowbar test allows controllable DC link current to be circulated without involving the motor windings. On the load
side, the DC current circulates through one or more SCR diametric cell pairs, bypassing the motor. An oscilloscope is used
to check whether the source side CTs are phased correctly.
● Perform current test setup as per GEH-6797 chapter6 section Current Feedbacks Test
● Record following variables, prior to start the test:
■ Crmin. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
■ Scrl1_ProfileX. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
● Perform current stability test as per GEH-6797 chapter6 section Current Feedbacks Test
● To perform the current polarity test, set the variables Crmin to 0.0 and Scrl1_ProfileX to 0.2 ………
Warning
Operation of the LCI in crowbar mode should never exceed 5 seconds while operating at any current level
due to the high thermal stress on the FGPA boards.
Warning
A 60-minutes cool-off time is required after each crowbar test ; the crowbar test current checks should be
setup with an oscilloscope preconfigured to capture and hold the desired waveform, then started and im-
mediately stopped ; in either direct terminal mode or using the GE-ToolboxST® wizard, this can be accom-
plished in less than 5 seconds

3.5. External exciter (EX2100e™) interface check

The external exciter interface is checked using an open loop alpha test. The purpose of this test is to verify that the exciter
can be controlled from 0 to 10 VDC reference coming from LCI control. This test must be coordinated with checkout of
the exciter.
Note
This test can be done with the phase sequence test
● Check the LCI / Exciter interface as follows:

■ Using ToolboxST®, select ExRefTst, set parameter Exc_Tst_Ref to 0V ………
■ Select Start Exc Ref to start exciter with a fire angle set point of 90° ………
■ Using ToolboxST®, adjust parameter Exc_Tst_Ref to make field current changing along its control
range ………
■ Increase exciter to maximum allowed value at turning gear speed, as per elementary diagram ………
■ Finish test by selecting Stop Test ………
● Store and save a data base copy of new parameters ………
3.6. Load phase sequence test

The purpose of this test is to verify that the cables between the LCI and the synchronous machine are connected to give
correct phase sequence. This test needs to be done with the unit on turning gear.
Note
Be careful when varying the exciter reference voyage. This is an open loop test and a small advance may
result in significant current. Vary the Exc_Tst_Ref parameter from 0 V dc using small incremental steps.
● Increase exciter current to give approximately 100 A dc through the machine field. Use excitation current control
method of Section 3.5, External exciter (EX2100e™) interface check ………

Note
Because of the turbine-generator's extremely high inertia, the LCI operates in current-limit when the
drive is accelerating ; at low speed, the drive-current is limited to a relatively low value to minimize
induced harmonic current in the machine rotor ; as speed increases, the current limit is re-calculated

4. Over-speed trip test during shutdown

The purpose of this test is to demonstrate the proper operation of the over-speed trip system of the gas turbine devices
and controllers to prevent over-speed of the shaft-line. This testing will be performed using the Fired Shutdown Overspeed
Trip Test that is performed at reduced speed during a shutdown. Once selected, the control system executes the test
during a shutdown sequence by applying a bias to the overspeed setpoint such that it is below running speed, resulting
in an overspeed trip as speed is reduced. This test fully validates the overspeed trip system and at the same time avoids
the risks of doing a physical overspeed test. It also eliminates the need to thermally soak the unit for any specific period
of time prior to the test
● Refer also to overspeed test according SIL proof test procedure ………
● When the unit is at FSNL, from HMI in the Overspeed Test Display, operator initiates Fired Shutdown (Stop button)
● Unit starts to shut down
● Operator then initiates Fired Shutdown OST- Start button. (Speed less than 94%, in fired shutdown, flame detected)
● Before flameout (50% speed), the controller auto changes the OS trip set point from 110% to 55% at which time the
unit trips on over-speed
● System automatically checks the following during any OS trip event and will alarm if the results are not as expected:
■ All Emergency Trip Relays (ETRs)/Primary Trip Relays (PTRs) confirmed open.

1.2. Load rejection test
Load rejection test shows the ability of the unit to sustain an opening of the generator breaker while providing power to
the grid (synchronized and loaded). Load rejection test is performed only with primary fuel.
● Prior to initiating a load rejection test, the unit must run at the load point for the test for a minimum of 3.0 hours to
allow the unit to thermally stabilize to reduce the risk of rubs during the load rejection overspeed ………
If multiple load rejections are planned for different load points, the 3 hour thermal stabilization is required at each load
point prior to initiating the load rejection
● Check with client test manager that national grid is ready to sustain the load rejection of the unit ………
