7.1 INSTALLATION PROCEDURE OF DEEP WELL GROUND BED
The major steps involved in the installation of a deep anode system include drilling the hole, placing
the anodes in the hole, pumping the backfill into place and completing the installation to the surface.
The drilling and installation team shall make sure that all deep well borehole ground bed
components such as, MMO anode, coke breeze, vent pipe, anode centralizers etc. are available
at site prior to commencing drilling to avoid possible delays.
The first step of the installation process involves drilling the hole. The exact location of the deep
well borehole ground bed shall be marked on site as per the appropriate layout drawing and cable
routing of well casing. Prior to any drilling or other excavation works, the chosen site shall be
thoroughly surveyed to ensure that there are no underground facilities at the location of the ground
bed.
A suitable drilling rig shall be mobilized to site and positioned at the ground bed location. Depending
upon the specific geology, the drilling operator shall drill a hole with air or mud circulation. If the
drilling equipment is undersized for the diameter and depth of hole to be drilled, the probability of
having hole problems will increase significantly. Therefore, an investigation of the drilling
equipment shall be checked prior to construction activity. In order to minimize installation problems,
the hole needs to be straight, stable and free of obstructions or constrictions.
An 8” diameter hole shall be drilled using the drilling rig. The depth of the borehole shall be drilled
to a depth 3 to 5 m deeper than the proposed total depth of the borehole column. This will insure
that in the event of a partial collapse of the borehole the ground bed materials can be installed
smoothly to the required depth.
There are two primary types of tests performed during the drilling process to provide decision
making data. Both tests are used to estimate formation resistivity.
• The first test involves measurement of the resistivity of the cuttings screened from the fluid
circulation steam. The cuttings are accumulated and compacted tightly into a soil box. The
test procedure involves calculating the resistance of the sample taken at every 10 m depth
between the potential pins and determining the resistivity from the soil box using Wenner
4 pin method.

(PLAN B)
CONTRACT NO: ENG052-20ERW
• The second test that may be performed during the drilling process to help determine the
water resistance is a drill stem-to-earth resistance. This test is usually conducted when
the top of the drill stem has reached the bottom of its travel distance just before adding
another length on the surface should be positioned for maximum test depth before the first
test measurement.
As sealed casing strings are installed, the placement of the backfill on the inside and outside of the
casing has to take place in two different operations. Care must be exercised to avoid significant
differential pressures across the casing walls capable of bursting the casing. One method of
reducing the differential pressures is to maintain heavy drilling mud on the opposite side of the
casing wall from the backfill pumping operation.
6. The above said process shall continue still the whole drilling complete.
7. Record the measured readings in field record#BSST-QAQC-CPJ212510-008FR-1.
All the anode tail cables shall be properly marked and tagged. A minimum waiting period of 24
hours after the final pumping is recommended to allow carbon backfill settling before final the
completion of hole.
Final completion of the deep anode system is accomplished by sealing the top portion of the hole
to prevent the entrance of surface groundwater. One easy method of sealing the upper portion of
a deep anode system involves pouring dry bentonite pellets or the drilled natural into the hole from
the surface.
The surface casing pipe shall be secured in concrete foundation and the anode tail cables shall be
brought to the anode junction box and terminate as shown in the installation drawing# ENG052-
20ERW PPFU001-B18-0004.
After the anodes are lowered into the bore hole and backfilling a resistance measurement should
be recorded between the anode tail cable and earth. Resistance shall be calculated by 3pin
method. Anode shall be considered as the first pin and fix the second and third pins at distances
from the anode and as recommended by the manufacturer of resistivity meter or as described
below.
1. Galvanized mounting frames for anode junction box shall be cast in to a concrete plinth
complete with cable duct. Once the concrete plinth shall be cured, the junction box shall
be secured to the frame.
2. Anode feeder cables shall be connected to the appropriate terminals inside the anode
junction box with supplied lugs, nuts and markers. # ENG052-20ERW PPFU001-B18-
0004.
3. The positive cable from the Transformer Rectifier shall be terminated to the bus bar inside
the AJB.
4. All cables shall be pulled through the conduit and terminated in the AJB. The conduits
shall have appropriate long radius to facilitate easy pulling of cables to JBs and entry shall
NC-200 ERAWIN FIELD EPF PHASE- I
(PLAN B)
CONTRACT NO: ENG052-20ERW
be at side of the concrete foundation. Cut the cable to a suitable length and terminated
using compression cable lugs.
5. Extra care should be given while pulling and laying the cable to save the cable from any
damage. A stress relief loop shall be provided in each cable and sufficient slack shall be
included near termination points.
6. No joint in cable shall be permitted.
For more details Please refer drawing # ENG052-20ERW PPFU001-B18-0004 and all the
reading/observation shall be recorded. # BSST-QAQC-CPJ212510-015FR-3.
12. Check the visual condition of Transformer Rectifier once the installation is completed.
13. Before energizing the system, fill oil in Transformer Rectifier. The oil level shall be at least
in between the maximum.
For more details refer drawing ENG052-20ERW-PPFU001-B18-0001 and G.A drawings of
Transformer Rectifier in the document (ENG052-20ERW-PPFU001-D06-0002).
All the reading/observation shall be recorded. # BSST-QAQC-CPJ212510-015FR-4.
8. PRE-CAUTIONS
1. Work permits are to be obtained from company before the start of any work.
2. The CP vendor site representative will supervise the installation activities.
3. Only CP qualified competent person shall carry the tests.
4. All the personnel present in the site should wear their Personal Protective Equipment’s.
5. Handle the anode carefully while installation.
6. Strictly follow the safety driving rules
7. Insists on a good housekeeping at all the time.
