A power switchgear assembly is a complete assembly of one or more of these devices and main bus conductors, interconnecting wiring, accessories, supporting structures, and enclosures. Two types of medium-voltage switchgear are available: " Metal-clad switchgear (circuit breakers) "Metal enclosed Fused Load interrupter switchgear (fused switches). Both are available for either indoor or outdoor installation. Metal-Clad Switchgear Metal-clad switchgear is an assembly of drawout vacuum circuit breakers or SF6, auxiliary equipment, metering equipment, and insulated copper bus bars enclosed in a rigid metal assembly. Each compartment in the assembly is isolated from all other others by grounded metal barriers. The circuit breakers are horizontal drawout type on rails. The breakers are operated by a motor-charged, spring- stored energy mechanism. The mechanism is front accessible and is charged by a universal electric motor and (in an emergency) by a manual handle. Each circult breaker contains three vacuum interrupters operated by a common linkage. A source of control power must be provided to the circuit breakers. For utlity and other critical installations, this control power is generally 24 V or 110/230 V DC/AC. Control power of 230V AC can also be used, with each breaker provided with a small capacitive or other stored-energy device to ensure tripping power. Metal-clad switchgear should be provided as the service entrance equipment for all medium-voltage distribution systems that require more than one main device and more than two feeder devices downstream of each main device. Metal-clad switchgear should also be provided where large motors are served direclly from the medium- voltage distribution system. Metal-Enclosed Fused Load Interrupter Metal-enclosed fused load interrupter switchgear includes interrupter switches, power fuses, bare bus and connections, instrument and control power transformers, and all necessary wiring and accessories. Metal-enclosed interrupter switchgear is used for all medium-voltage distribution systems not using metal-clad switchgear. Where circuit requirements are 600A or less and up to 36 KV or less, pad-mounted interrupter switchgear should be used to make transformer taps and dual-source selective switching at pad-mounted transformers. Protection and metering shall be microprocessor based with integrated digital metering and display, as well as communications capability for remote display via the control system. Provide at minimum the following signals to the control system for monitoring and alarming: "Closed / open status of main and tie breakers. "Breaker / Relay fail status. Consider closed-door racking for all medium-voltage switchgear. Low-Voltage Switchgear (Power Distribution) Two types of low-voltage enclosed switchgear are used in power distribution systems: metal-enclosed, low voltage power circuit switchgear, and power switchboards. panel boards are used for multiple small 400V loads. Most panel boards provide 230V 1-phase power. 00_TES_SD_006.01 Page 208 of 565 Issue Date 31/10/2021 atballoliall Spt capstauaneest () "Switchgear connected directly to utility services must be service entrance rated, © Instrument Transformers Instrument transformers include all the current transformers (CT's) and potential transformers (PT's) required for both metering and protection purposes. Current transformers shall be mounted in the breaker compartment around the stationary main contacts and shall have their thermal and mechanical rating capable of withstanding the short circuit rating of the associated circuit breakers, They shall be accessible from the front of the switchgear assembly, There shall be one CT per phase. The metering accuracy of the CT's shall be 0.3 B-0.2 as a minimum. Burden factor of 0.2 ohm shall be increased to higher values as needed for the application for protection duty, sensors’ accuracy class shall not be less than C100, and shall be increased as required by the application to comply with Class C. C1's used for metering and protection shall fulfil the accuracy requirements for both duties. Potential transformers with their primary and secondary fuses shall be mounted inside the switchgear's instrument compartment. Accuracy shall be 0.3WX0.6Y1.2Z, as a minimum. The fuses shall be of the pull out, type. Potential transformers shall be connected in open delta with their secondary at 230 V. Current and potential transformers shall be wired to test blocks.

It features individually mounted air break power circuit breakers in draw out construction. Power circuit breakers both with and without current limiting fuses are available. Circuit breakers are equipped with solid-state tripping systems and offer a wide range of adjustability. For more details on switchgear, see Specification 26 24 13, Metal-enclosed, low-voltage power circuit switchgear should be used where the available fault current exceeds 50 kA symmetrical at 400V or 65 kA symmetrical at 230V. Switchboards Power switchboards are available in either group or individually mounted configurations. The group-mounted configuration is normally used for small boards and in commercial construction, Both are constructed according to NEMA PB-2. The main circuit protective devices in group-mounted switchboards are either fixed or drawout-mounted, but the branch devices are all fixed-mounted. The main device is a molded case circuit breaker, a molded case circuit breaker with solid-state trip units, an air break power circuit breaker, or a bolted pressure switch. The branch devices are either molded case circult breakers, with or without solid-state trip units, or fused switches. The standard short circuit rating for group-mounted switchboards is 50 kA RMS (root mean square) symmetrical, but higher ratings are available. For more details on switchboards, see DSG Specification 26 24 13, Both the main and feeder circuit protective devices should be draw out type in individually mounted configurations. The standard short circuit rating for switchboards with individually mounted draw out circuit breakers is 50 kA RMS symmetrical, but higher ratings are available. ‘Switchboards with group-mounted circuit protective devices should be used where’ "Main bus rating is 800A or less. "Fault current available is less than 50 kA RMS symmetrical. "Feeder and/or branch circuit protective devices are all 225A or less. Where the main bus rating must be greater than 800A and feeder breakers of 400A or larger are required, switchboards with individually mounted circuit protective devices should be used if the fault current available is 50 kA RMS symmetrical or less. ‘Where higher fault currents are available, metal-enclosed, low-voltage power circuit switchgear should be used. Panel boards Power distribution panel boards are usually 400V or 230V, 3-phase, 3-wire with 3-pole breakers serving small loads such as gate operators or automatic valves. If 230V power is needed, usually for lighting in commercial buildings, then a 4-wire panel board should be installed. Otherwise, panel boards should be installed as necessary to provide power to the loads shown on the drawing. 00_TES_SD_006.01 Page 210 of 565 Issue Date 31/10/2021 atballoliall Spt ) National Water Company Cc 7.2 Transformers 7.2.1 Codes and standards lec 61869-1 Instrument Transformers, Part 1: Current Transformers Instrument Transformers, Requirements for Protective Current TEC 61869-6 Transformers for Transient Performance lec 60076 Power Transformers IEC 60137 Insulated Bushings for Alternating Voltages above 1000V. ec eo2t4s Tap Changers Part 1: Performance Requirements and Test Methods IEC 60214-2 ‘Tap Changers Part 2 : Application Guide lec 60507 Atal Potion Tests on High Voltage Insulators to be used on IEC 60529 Degrees of Protection Provided by Enclosures (IP Code) IEC TR60616 Terminal and Tapping Markings for Power Transformers IEC 6076-7 Loading Guide for Oil mmersed Power Transformers IEEE c57,12.00 General Requirements for Liquid-Immersed Distribution, Power and Regulating Transformers.

Type of starters Acceptable Methods of Control The following methods of control are deemed to be acceptable, as per application requirements. Other methods of control require specific approval of NWC. "Full Voltage Direct On Line (DOL) - Fixed speed "Star Delta - Fixed Speed "Soft Start — Fixed speed "Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) ~ Variable speed "= Autotransformer. The use of magnetic couplings or eddy current drives may be acceptable for certain applications where the variable speed requirements are limited (~85% - 100% speed). Review would be required on a case-by-case basis. Contactors = All full voltage motor starter contactors shall be NEMA rated contactors. "NEMA labelled IEC style contactors are acceptable for most applications. IEC style contactors are permitted for the following applications: "Soft Starter isolation contactors. "Soft starter bypass contactors. For applications in water collections, water flood pumping, or land drainage, where IEC contactors are utilized for bypass or isolation purposes, they shall, at minimum, be sized as follows "One size larger than required, or = 125% of FLA, Typical special motor control requirements are as per Table 5-2, however the control of each motor shall be reviewed in light of the specific application requirements. Most water flood pumping stations have a special requirement in that the motors cannot be tested at full speed during a non-flood event as this would pump water to the nearby water course. Motor Restart Control Motor control circuits are to be designed to have anti-restart prevention, to prevent or delay automatic immediate restart after a stop or power failure situation. The purpose is to prevent restart of the motor while residual voltage ould still be present in the motor. For motors 75 kW (100 hp.) or greater, provide motor restart prevention. As per NEMA MG1 guidelines, motor restart shall be prevented until 1.5x the motor open circuit ime constant. The delay could potentially be accomplished via a three-wire control (stop/start) control arrangement, timers to delay restart, or potentially an under voltage relay with a restart time.

Principals of lighting design Lighting Systems For NWC, three different lighting systems apply: (1) general illumination; (2) emergency/standby; and (3) exit signing. Lighting Design Software, by Approved vendor. may be used to calculate and design both interior and exterior illumination. General Illumination General illumination refers to the lighting needed for visual tasks in and around a facility, see NEC table 220.12 General Lighting Loads by Occupancy and Table 220.42 Lighting Load Demand Factors for design calculations. Lighting for general illumination can be provided by various sources depending on the visual tasks anticipated, lighting levels required, mounting height of the luminaires, and frequency of use. Illumination should be supplied by a source that provides the highest light output (lumens) per watt of input power (efficacy), and reasonable color rendition for the tasks in the area. Fixture Type Selection "The types of lighting fixtures and their mounting methods shall be selected to satisfy the various project requirements and conditions. Particular attention to color renditions, light distribution and stroboscopic effects is needed when choosing the type of lamps, starting system, Table 25controls and reflection accessories. Due consideration shall also be given to the provision of proper re-lamping facilities. "Refer to Table 25 for a general comparison of various fixture types. 00_TES_SD_006.01 Page 222 of 565 Issue Date 31/10/2021 Table 25 - Brief atballoliall Spt susteuntcean () Fluorescent fixtures are preferred for most indoor applications as they provide instant on capabilly. Light fixtures must be selected for the correct environment and installed (mounted) to facil- itate lamp replacement and maintenance. Selection of accessories and other related ma- terials must also bear the same degree of protection and be properly installed. Refer to Table 25 for fixture selection for various applications. Note that the specific re- quirements of each application must be considered prior to final selection. Where an alter- nate type of lighting is proposed, review the proposed selection with NWC. The final number and array of fixtures used in the final required design must be supported by calculation using recognized methods; the use of vendor software is acceptable. The final design must ensure that the illumination levels will be met and maintained for the spec- ifled maintenance requirements and re-lamping intervals. comparisons of main types of fixtures Type Efficacy Lamp Color Instant ON Notes Life rendering (hrs.)

An LED can cut energy use by more than 80 percent compared to conventional incandescent lights and last more than 25 times longer than traditional light bulbs. Like fluorescent lighting, NWC uses color temperatures: 2700k-3200k for warm white, 4000k~4500k for natural white, and §500k-6000k for day white, Although 5500k lamps produce a higher ight output per watt, 3500k and ‘450k lamps are recommended for most applications because they provide good to very good color (CRI>= 70) with high efficiency. Design Considerations The typical LED lighting fixture is straightforward for traditional lighting applications in nonhazardous environ- ments. However, LEDs used in areas classified as hazardous have a variety of models depending on wattages and budgets. An electrical engineer must always use caution when editing electrical specifications such as lumens, color temperatures, and heat dissipation requirements in hazardous environments. Fluorescent General Fluorescent lamps should be used for indoor locations if LED lighting cannot fit in a project's requirements. Fluorescent lamps are available in several types and each has very specific characteristics. Because of their relatively long life expectancy, these lamps are often used in 48-inch, 32-watt, T8, TS, and various compact fluorescent (CF) type lamps. Consider using CF types for hazardous locations 00_TES_SD_006.01 Page 225 of 565 Issue Date 31/10/2021 atballoliall Spt capstauaneest () NWC uses fluorescent lamps with 300k, 3500k, and 4100k color temperatures. Although 5000k lamps produce a higher light output per watt that approximates noon-time sunlight, 3500k and 4100k lamps are recommended for most applications because they provide good to very good color with high efficiency. Design Considerations Fluorescent luminaires used indoors should be one of four basic types: "Recessed type with a lens (or parabolic louver) "Surface type with a lens (or parabolic louver) ™ Open-chassis type "Enclosed and gasketed. All lenses should be 100% clear acrylic. All fluorescent luminaires should be specified with electronic ballasts. Recessed Fluorescent Luminaires Recessed fluorescent luminaires with lenses or parabolic louvers should normally be used in office areas, la- boratories, and control rooms. The luminaires specified must be coordinated with the type of ceiling. A luminaire to be recessed in a lay-in ceiling cannot be installed in a plasterboard ceiling and vice versa. Two-lamp lumi- naires are preferred, but 3 and 4-lamp luminaires should be used where higher foot-candle levels are required and/or two-level switching is desired. Where 3 and 4-lamp luminaires are installed in office and control room areas, two-level switching should be provided. Be sure to check for local energy codes regarding fixture, lamp, and ballast requirements. Surface-Mounted Fluorescent Luminaires ‘Surface-mounted fluorescent luminaires with lenses may be substituted for recessed luminaires in areas where plasterboard ceilings are being installed. Open-Chassis Luminaires If they can be mounted at a height of 15 feet or less, open-chassis fluorescent luminaires should be specified {or all industrial areas where moisture is not a problem. For higher mounting heights, consider low-wattage metal halide or high-pressure sodium (HPS) lamps. Open-chassis luminaires with reflectors should normally be used Where the luminaires are to be suspended, a minimum of 10% uplight should be provided. In situations where surface mounting is necessary, no uplight is required and an open-chassis luminaire without a reflector may be used. All open-chassis luminaires specified should be industrial, heavy-duty type. Enclosed and gasketed luminaires Enclosed and gasketed luminaires should be specified for damp and wet locations. They should be UL listed as suitable for the type of area in which they will be installed. Luminaires should be manufactured of molded, high- impact resistant ABS plastic or reinforced fiberglass with a diffuser of high-impact resistant acrylic. Hazardous location fluorescent fixtures can be used, but they should be evaluated first because of the higher fixture costs. High-Pressure Sodium (HPS) General HPS lamps are preferred for outdoor and high-bay indoor locations if LED lamps are not applicable to project, environment. HPS lamps are available in a variety of wattages and are suitable for any orientation, Even though their color rendition is poorer than that of LEDs and fluorescents, their cost, generally good efficiency (lumens 00_TES_SD_006.01 Page 226 of 565 Issue Date 31/10/2021 atballoliall Spt capstauaneest () per watt) and relatively long life may make them an appropriate choice for outdoor, indoor industrial, and hard- to-relamp indoor areas. One characteristic of all high-intensity discharge lamps (HPS and metal halide) is that they require a warm-up and restrike time; they do not tum on at full brightness as does a fluorescent or incan- descent lamp. The warm-up time for an HPS can be as much as 3 to 4 minutes, during which time the light output is greatly reduced, The restrike time for an HPS is usually 1 minute or less. Where immediate light output is necessary on re-energization, an auxiliary quartz lamp can be provided by some luminaire manufacturers. Improved color rendition index (CRI) HPS lamps should be specified, if possible. Design Considerations Indoor Applications HPS luminaires installed indoors should be either open or enclosed and gasketed depending on the area where they are to be installed. Open luminaires should be installed in dry low and high-bay areas where they will be suspended and uplight is required. They should be installed in areas where the celling height exceeds 15 feet. Enclosed and gasketed HPS luminaires should be installed in all damp and wet areas where the mounting height exceeds 12 feet. Luminaires should be installed suspended and should be constructed using an acrylic or glass refractor that completely houses the lamp. Outdoor Applications HPS lamps should be used for all lighting applications outdoors except where LEDs are not suitable for deco- rative lighting, for example, at the entrances of administration buildings. All exterior applications should use cutoff type luminaries, including full cutoff, cutoff, semi-cutoff, and non-cutoff, as deemed appropriate. Security lighting should be provided on the outside of buildings and at entrances by wall-mounted HPS lumi- naires that use cutoff type optics and a prismatic glass or acrylic refractor to direct the light over a broad hori- zontal area, Illumination should be provided at underground facilities by pole-mounted cutoff optic type luminaires. Mounting heights should not exceed 30 feet, and lamp size should be at least 150 watts. IES Type IV or V luminaires provide the best lighting for broad areas. A combination of distribution types can be used as needed. Luminaire manufacturers can provide assistance in pole layout and computer analysis of illumination levels. 7.4.3.

However, the economic payback for power factor correction should be cal- culated for all cases where the requirement for power factor correction is not clear. Correction of the power factor to past 0.95 leading shall not be permitted under any circum stance. For small facilities with a limited number of loads, power factor correction connected to the individual motor loads is preferred. For example, connection of capacitors to motor loads is, appropriate in most water lft stations For facilities supplied at 600V, with numerous motor loads and potential harmonics, con- nection of one or more power factor correction banks is preferred. Perform a harmonic review of the existing and potential future installation, and install detuning capacitors if po- tentially damaging harmonies are present Ensure that capacitors do not create a resonance condition. Where any point in the electrical distribution has non-linear loads exceeding 15% of the upstream transformer capacity, a harmonic study must be performed to determine the ap- propriate application of power factor correction. Capacitors connected directly to the bus without an upstream contactor require special per- mmission from NWC. For facilities supplied at medium voltage, the appropriate configuration of power factor cor rection must be determined on a case-by-case basis. ‘Switching and control of power factor correction equipment shall be given special attention. The transient and dynamic behavior of this equipment under various operating conditions must be supported by calculations and studies.

Capacitors should not be installed at the terminals with larger size AC induction motors wit, high inertia loads due to risk of self-excitation, after the motor is switched off. Self-excitation may lead to presence of over-voltages at motor/capacitor terminals. The capacitor rated current should be less than the no-load magnetizing current of the induction motor.

Note that the capacitors in this configuration may be slightly larger than the previous connection types. ‘When configured with a soft start, the capacitor contactor should only close after the motor is up to speed, VFDs 1D Capacitors are not typically required to provide displacement power factor correc- tion, but rather to filter harmonics. 1D Capacitors should never be applied to VFDs without appropriately designed filter- ing reactors. 1D Inharmonic rich environments, the use of power factor correction on individual mo- tors is generally discouraged. For smaller facilities, such as lift stations, where har- monics are present it may be appropriate to install detuning reactors on individual capacitors. Decentralized Bulk Power Factor Correction The power factor correction equipment may be installed in various locations in a facility on busses such as motor control centers and switchgear. The primary advantage of this arrangement compared to centralized bulk Power factor correction is that the power factor correction can reduce feeder currents and associated losses within the facility, 00_TES_SD_006.01 Page 235 of 565 Issue Date 31/10/2021 atballoliall Spt capstauaneest () Before applying power factor correction, the power factor, actual load current, individual harmonic components of individual loads and the power supply source needs to be re- viewed, Iis recommended to consider the use of detuned power factor correction banks whenever harmonic currents are present or may arise in the future.

Power factor correction can also assist with voltage stabilization. 00_TES_SD_006.01 Before applying centralized bulk power factor correction, a proper electrical study should be carried out to study the kVA, KVAR, power factor, actual load current, individual har- monic components at the given power source.

General Emergency power systems are required by law or code for life safety. Standby systems are required for continuous operation of a plant or a process should the normal power source be interrupted. Typically, standby systems are installed by user choice. Emergency and standby power systems use the same equipment and often serve the same purpose. General Requirements Generator ratings shall be selected based upon the ISO 8528 standard. It is acknowledged that generator manufacturers may provide additional or modified ratings, however care should be utilized when utilizing specific manufacturer ratings in a competitive procurement situation. ISO 8528 ratings are summarized as follows: "Continuous Power (D The rated output is available continuously, with average power output within 70% to 100% of the rating. "Prime Power D The generator may run continuously, with an average power output of up to 70% of the rating over 24 hours. = Limited Time Running Power 1D The rated output is available for up to 500 hours per year, with average power output up to 100% of the rating "Emergency Standby Power D. The generator may run up to 200 or more hours per year, with an average power output of 70% of the rating over 24 hours. = Engine exhaust system: 1D Exhaust gas piping to be insulated "Piping designed to prevent vibration isolation from generator set to piping and therefore to building, "Piping to be equipped with drain valves to drain condensation at the lowest point, 00_TES_SD_006.01 Page 238 of 565, Issue Date 31/10/2021 atballoliall Spt capstauaneest () Piping to be designed in such a way that exhaust is away from building ventilation air in- takes, 19 to be designed in such ways that itis above the building perimeter to allow for easy dispersal of exhaust gases. ‘Allow for expansion due to high temperature without affecting building supports. Provide piping of suitable size and length to prevent exceeding the backpressure on engine. Generator cooling system: 1D Provide the required ambient air temperature range for the generator room. 1D Provide radiator based cooling! or remote radiator cooling depending on engineer- ing analysis of generator room temperature rises. 1D Provide fresh air intake (combustion air + cooling air) and generator room ambient air exhaust fans as required to maintain the required operating ambient tempera- ture, Fuel supply system: (D Where available, natural gas is the preferred fuel 1D Ifthe generator is an emergency generator, ensure that natural gas is acceptable as per NWC. 1D Where diesel fuel is selected: 1D Provide a day tank for fuel within the generator room.

Provide remote connections using discrete relays and communication ports for monitoring of generator set status, alarms Provide automatic controls for auxiliary heating, block and space heating. Provide generator paralleling controls if required for the application. Engine starting systems: 00_TES_SD_006.01 Provide storage battery/battery charger to power starting system. Balteries shall be as recommended by the manufacturer and designed for the required cold cranking cycles. Cold cranking cycles to comply with Standard. Provide monitoring of battery voltage and automatic alarm to wam of low battery. Battery system shall be designed to operate in extreme temperature range that may occur inside the generator room, Page 239 of 565 Issue Date 31/10/2021 Alternators: atballoliall Spt capstauaneest () For smaller generators, provide altemator winding with 2/3rd pitch. For larger generators > 1 MW, consider the use of higher pitch windings. Windings shall be copper. Provide suitable exciter in static or direct connected type. Automatic voltage regulator shall be permanent magnet, quick voltage build up type. Provide complete alternator datasheet, and parameters. Alternator shall be designed to be able to withstand, electrically and mechanically, 300% of its full oad current for 1 second with its terminals shorted. Automatic transfer switches: 00_TES_SD_006.01 Provide ATS in compliance with NWC Standard, Transfer equipment should be designed, installed and maintained in such a way that it will never allow inadvertent interconnection of the standby power source with the normal power source. Most applications will utilize open transition transfer (break before make) for simplicity. Ensure that the open delay is sufficient for residual voltage of motor loads to Dissipate Closed transition transfer switches should be considered when the facility cannot accept ‘temporary power interruptions when transferring from the standby to utility source, ‘Where closed transition transfer switches are required, selection is typically between three major types: Momentary Passive: The transfer switch waits for the generator to passively synchronize with the utility source and then closes the uly switch, The generator switch is opened within 100ms of the ulty switch closing, The transfer switch must be NWC Standard approved Under-voltage protection and an automatic synchronization check are required. Momentary Active: This type of transfer is the same as momentary passive discussed above, except that the generator is actively controlled by an automatic synchronizer. Soft Transition Ina soft transition transfer scheme, the synchronization is controlled by an automatic syn- chronizer, but the generator Is paralleled with the utllty source for longer than 100 ms. this allows the loads to be gradually transferred from the generator to the utlity source over a short petiod of time, typically 2 to 10 seconds This type of transition requires additional protection and coordination with the uty Ensure that separate, interlocked bypass feeders are provided around automatic transfer switches to allow for maintenance on transfer switches without interrupting critical loads. Page 240 of 565 Issue Date 31/10/2021 atballoliall Spt capstauaneest () Load bank connection Emergency Loads Essential Loads 00_TES_SD_006.01 If the generator is classified as an emergency generator, the system must be operated Under a minimum of 30% load monthly, and 100% load annually. Unless NWC has a portable load bank of the appropriate size, provide a permanent load bank for testing purposes. If not classified as an emergency generator, at minimum provide provision for connection of a temporary load bank. Provide at minimum the following signals to the control system for each standby generator: Generator running Generator fail. In accordance with the National Building Code, a generator shall be classified as an emer- gency generator if it feeds life safety equipment, such as: Fire alarm and emergency voice communications systems; Firefighters’ elevators and elevators serving storeys above the first storey in a high building; Fire protection water supply pumps that depend on electrical power supplied to the building; ‘Smoke control systems; Fans required for smoke control; Emergency lighting; and Exit signs. ‘An emergency generator may power other essential (non-emergency) loads, provided that they are switched via an independent transfer switch and arranged in a manner to not com- promise the emergency power system. Certain other critical loads should be considered for connection to the emergency generator via the emergency power branch; however, these loads are not acknowledged in current codes as emergency loads. Thus, it is recommended to perform a review of the criticality of the loads, provide a recommendation based upon good engineering practice, and dis- cuss with the NWC for approval. Auxiliary systems associated with emergency generation must also be powered from the emergency power distribution system. An example is generator room ventilation equip- ment Emergency generators must meet the requirements of NWC. Emergency loads must be provided with a separate transfer switch and distribution from the non-emergency essential power loads. Essential (non-emergency) loads should be powered via a standby generator, or the standby power branch of an emergency generator system. The following loads should typically be considered for designation as Essential Loads: Page 241 of 565 Issue Date 31/10/2021 auiballolall Spits © National Water Company Essential process motor loads, including critical motor operated valves. UPS systems ‘Switchgear DC control power supplies Plant securityCCTV systems Ventilation systems that must remain operable during a power failure. ‘The requirement for standby power for process systems shall be decided on a case-by- case basis. Generator Set Sizing 00_TES_SD_006.01 It is recommended that the generator sizing be confirmed by the manufacturer based on load profile provided by the engineer. ‘A standbylemergency generator should be sized in such a manner that on average the running load will not be below 30% of its rated kVA capacity. Permanent load banks may be required to be operated in parallel with plant loads less than 30%, in order to protect the generator from engine related reliability issues. Ifloads less than 30% are expected, review the application with generator manufacturers. Maximum allowable Step Loading: The maximum allowed single step loading will cause a voltage dip that should stay within the operating voltage range of all live loads, which indi- rectly wil decide the generator KVA rating. Generators may be sized based on picking all load up in a single step or alternatively designing the single step to pick up a maximum load step in a sequential loading plan, Maximum allowable single step frequency dip: The maximum allowed single step loading will also cause a single step frequency drip which in turn will have a bearing on the gener- ator kVA rating, Increased ambient temperatures will require higher kVA rating All generators are to be designed with a minimum of 10% reserve capacity. ‘Where the generator is classified as an emergency generator, the 10% reserve capacity shall be retained throughout the life of the generator. ‘Where the generator is not classified as an emergency generator, the 10% reserve capacity may be utilized for expansion, if accepted by NWC, Single Phase Loads versus Three Phase loads: Each load that is being analyzed must be converted into current loadings and power factor, Each phase must be summarized indi- vidually to arrive at the highest phase loading and power factor which will decide the gen- erator kVA ratings, operability and stability. Design Load Calculations: Conduct a thorough study to identify each and every type and size of emergencylessential loads that the emergency/standby generator will power after the normal power has failed, Note the individual load power factors as they will be required to establish the distribution of real power and reactive power in the alternator. Three phase generators are rated for 0.8 PF. Lower power factors at rated kVA will require larger alternators, Page 242 of 565 Issue Date 31/10/2021 atballoliall Spt capstauaneest () Generators that will be supplying only leading power factor loads should be treated with exlreme caution, as these can cause the generator set to lose control of its voltage. An example is UPS loads, or data servers which may exhibit leading PF load characteristics. Determine the maximum time delay that can be suffered by each load before each load is transferred to generator power. The time delay with the least value will be the deciding factor for adjusting the start-up delay of the generator. Determine all motor loads and calculate the starting kVA of each motor load. Based on diversity of all motor loads, calculate the total motor starting KVA which must be supported by the generator. Identify VFDs and non-liner loads with harmonic contribution to the generator voltage and current. Ensure that appropriate generation capacity is provided to address the harmonics present. Review UPS loads to ensure sufficient generation capability is provided for charging current and harmonics. After totalling all loads, add 10-25% to allow for future KVA capacity increase, Regenerative loads: Regenerative loads are typically elevators, cranes, hoists and sometimes pumps. These loads when braking or decelerating will feed energy back to the generator leading to over- speeding and consequent tripping of the generator. This situation may require keeping ‘some non-critical loads powered on the generator set so that they can absorb extra energy and prevent a mechanical over speed of the engine, Temporary Generator Connection ‘Temporary generator connections shall be utilized at critical facilities that do not have per- manent emergency/standby generators. Consult with the NWC to determine ita standard for a plug / receptacle system exists, which would allow for fast, straightforward hook-ups without errors, Current design practice for NWC is to supply a junction box with terminals. The breaker connected to the junction box shall be interlocked with the utility breaker. The generator frame must be bonded. Uninterruptible Power Supplies For most NWC projects, relatively small uninterruptable power supplies (UPS) are required to keep the PLCISCADA system operational while the facility switches to emergency or standby power. I&C design engineer should specify UPS needs for specific site requirements. Alternatively, the electrical engineer should be editing the electrical specifications of the UPS used for backup power to motor/actuator operated gates. For example, UPS locates inside a roadside electrical cabinet in direct sunlight should require a thermal contral system to maintain the operating temperature of UPS batteries and electronics. Using offline UPS or line interactive UPS for less-than-critical equipment is recommended, where possible. 00_TES_SD_006.01 Page 243 of 565 Issue Date 31/10/2021 atballoliall Spt capstauaneest () 7.9 Cables installation 7.9.1 Codes and standards The cables shall comply in design, material and performance to the following codes and standards.

Throwing and dropping down of cable drums shall be strictly avoided. In order to prevent drums moving during transportation, these must be securely wedged to prevent movement. Before unloading it is necessary to verify that the drum is received in proper condition. The directional arrow of the drums has to be observed during rolling. The slop of the loading ramps shall not surpass the relation of 1:4, When rolling the drum on the ramp this must be controlled by ropes and with aid of winches or pulley blocks and tackle. Empty cable drums have to be stored on a suitable central store place. Returning the cable manufacturer of retumable drums is the Contractor's responsibility Personnel and Tools Sufficient staff for drum transportation and for unwinding and laying of the cables has to be foreseen. If cables are laid simultaneously at different areas, each cable laying team has to be permanently supervised by a qualified person to ensure that all works are carried out in accordance with the specifications. Unskilled staff has to be instructed on handling of the cable material before start of work. Cable Pulling ‘When putting the drums on lifting jacks, the direction arrow shall point to the opposite direction. After removing the protection boards the cable shall be inspected for visual defects. When unwinding the cable, the drum has to be moved by hand in order to avoid a stress on the cables. ‘Small cable length may be unwound without lifting jacks beside the cable trench and then laid into the trenches. Dragging of the cables on the ground has to be avoided in any case. ‘When pulling the cables, especially when joints are necessary, special care has to be paid to the fact that each individual length shall be laid in the same direction, This means that the B-end meets the A-end of the next length and the wires of the same color can be connected without crossing in the joint. The cables shall be supported by cable rollers, placed in a distance of 2 - 4 m. At curves, comer cable rollers according to the minimum bending radius shall be situated. On the cable end grips shall be fixed. On these cable grips the rope shall be mounted. The specifications of the cable manufacturer for the max. strength for cable pulling shall be observed strictly. The actual strength will be controlled by dynamometers installed in the pulling rope. Small cables will be laid manually. Attention will be given when pulling them into conduits. Before pulling the cables through cable routes with cable conduits or pipes, the freeway in the routes has to be inspected. It may only be pulled on straight sections. Even if corner rollers are installed, every pull point has to be watched by an inspector. At the beginning and at the end of conduit routes, the cable shall not touch pipe or stone edges. The edges have to be rounded up, or suitable supports of cardboard or jute cushions penetrated with grease have to be placed under the cables. The openings have to be plugged to avoid penetration of sand. At the start and the end point of cable conduits, the cables have to be laid in a S-bend in order to equalize settlements of the cable trenches, Close to cable connections to consumers or junction boxes, cable loops allowing spare length have to be provided before leaving the earth or the duct. 00_TES_SD_006.01 Page 249 of 565, Issue Date 31/10/2021
