PROTECTIONBased upon the principle used to detect the fault or obnormality, KWU
Turbine protection scheme is basically divided into two groups.
e HYDRAULIC
» ELECTRICAL
In cose of Hydraulic, fault is detected mechanically, signal is
transmitted hydraulically in the form of changes in certain oil pressure
ond this oil pressure is used to operate the Turbine Trip Gear
Operation of Trip Gear will lead to the draining of the Trip Oil, which
in turn will close the Stop & Control Valves.
In cose of Electrical, fault is detected using electronic transducers;
signal is transmitted and processed electrically. This electrical signal
is used to energise the Remote Trip Solenoids (RTS). Energisation of
RTS will cut off the oil flow to the Main Trip Gears and thus closing of
stop ond control valves are resulted
