1.1.1

Introduction
General
This document describes the conceptual design of the Electrical installations of the
Damen Shipyard in Hai Phong.
Design and build stages
This document, titled Tender Design is the second stage of the design process. It
contains the description of electrical installations in the entire shipyard. Total package of
all specifications, drawings and BoQs shall be used as tender document for the selection
of the contractor who will be responsible for the workshop drawings, procurement and
construction of the electrical installations that are part of the project.

1.1.2

Quality and reliability

Electrical installations
Central electrical provisions
Power supply
The Shipyard shall obtain power supply from the Power Company of Hai Phong area.
In the beginning, due to MV network under development in the area, only 10 kV network
will be available with 500kVA power allowance for connection. Later 22 kV net will be built
and connected to the shipyard with the power allowance according to factory
requirements. Therefore following measures are undertaken:
Double MV voltage transformers are designed (22/10/0.4 kV),
24kV insulation for MV switchboards and cabling is designed.
NOTE: These double voltage conditions apply only in case the Power Company is not
ready with 22kV supply before tendering time. Successful Contractor shall agree these
items with the Client prior to order placement.
Full back up power generators are designed to run the shipyard till the final power supply
is available.
The incoming power from nearest MV overhead line pole as shown on MV schematic
diagram will enter the Service Substation building MV main switchgear. This switchgear
will feed the ring main units within the shipyard. All major buildings will have their own
substations. Spare feeders and spare space is provided for future shipyard extension.
Bus section breaker is provided for isolating the ring from the supply side and for
automatic change over in case of power break. PLC control has to be provided by the
Contractor/Supplier to isolate the network supply side in case of power failure and switch
on the generator supply on to feed the entire network. The Contractor shall deliver and
install an UPS to feed the protection, PLC and signal circuits as shown on schematic
drawings. Parallel operation of external power supply and emergency generators is not
allowed.
Low Voltage network will be: 220/380V, 50 Hz.
The LV power system shall be of type: TN-S, which means separate conductors of neutral
and earth from source. Reduced cross-section of neutral conductors is not allowed.
Emergency power supply
- Emergency power generator is required. Two generators of 1250kVA continuous
rating are designed for the first stage of shipyard construction as per this design
scope. Later other generators can be added in similar configuration.

The general emergency lighting for the Outfitting Building shall be supplied by a
centralized battery system (UPS). The Uninterrupted Power Supply (UPSs) shall be
installed in the Office Building Substation.
- The escape lighting luminaries shall be supplied with built in batteries (self contained).
Emergency generators will work on MV network. Therefore a step up transformer
0.4/10/22 kV is designed to allow for connection of generators onto the network. This
transformer will work also as step down unit for the power supply of Service Substation,
Guard House building and PON building due to long distance from other substation.
Emergency generators and step up transformer shall be placed in containerized
enclosures as shown on layout drawings. Generator breakers, main breaker and
synchronization/load sharing panel shall be located together with the transformer. In case
of power failure, a signal from voltage transformers on the MV incomer, shall cause the
PLC control system to initiate starting the generators and switch off the MV bus coupler.
After synchronization the main generator LV breaker shall close and the factory will be
supplied from generators. If the power demand is smaller than 1000kVA then 1 generator
should stop. PLC shall select which one, based on previous switching so both generators
running time is almost the same.
On power return, after set delay, the reverse action should take place. The LV generator
breaker shall be switched off and MV bus coupler breaker switched on. After cooling time
the generator(s) should stop.

8.1.4 UPS Components Description


8.1.4.1 Rectifier Chargers
The Rectifier / Charger must consist of 12 pulse SCR bridge which converts the 3 phase
utility voltage into a controlled and regulated DC voltage in order to supply the Inverter
and simultaneously charge the battery bank.
The 12-pulse rectifier should consist of two 6-pulse rectifiers in parallel with a galvanic
Isolation transformer and Phase shift technology thereby limiting the harmonic feedback
to the mains. The Rectifier shall be controlled by microprocessor-based software along
with DSP (digital signal processing) technology.
The rectifier charger shall have sufficient capacity to support a fully loaded Inverter and at
the same time maintain the battery in a fully charged condition. If the battery bank is fully
charged, the rectifier/charger shall recharge the battery to 90% if its fully charged
condition within in 12 hours and at the same time supply full load current to the system.
The rectifier/ charger must contain a timed walk-in circuit to limit the inrush current. The
allowable initial inrush surge and walk-in time circuit be adjustable and not exceed 30 sec.
A sequential walk in of every single rectifier/charger shall be automatically executed
incase of the start up of a parallel system in order to limit the inrush current to the value of
single system. The sequential rectifier soft start in RPA mode shall avoid over rating of

SPECIFICATIONS
Generator, over heating of supply cable and avoid stress on incoming MCCB/ Fuses.
The rectifier/charger output current and voltage shall be limited to the battery suppliers
recommendation.
8.1.4.2 Inverter
The inverter will convert the DC-voltage to AC voltage coming from the rectifier or from
the battery into a regulated AC-voltage, must be accomplished by power transistors of the
IGBT (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistors) type controlled which meets all requirements of
modern data processing units according to wave-shape as well as voltage and frequency
stability. The waveform shall be fed through a filter circuit and protected by fuses.
The Inverter output voltage should be regulated by PWM (Pulse Width Modulation)
controlled by microprocessor-based software along with DSP (digital signal processing)
technology to ensure that the voltage THDi is being limited especially for non-linear loads.
The output filter capacitors shall be provided with a quick discharging circuit, which shall
automatically discharge the capacitor to safe value within a short time after the shutting
down of the Inverter. The neutral of the Inverter out put shall be electrically isolated from
the UPS system chassis.
Failure of any components or power stage shall not interrupt the AC output instead it shall
disconnect itself from the configuration while transferring the load to the static switch and
then activate an alarm.
Inside the inverter, IGBT`s of a switching frequency of 4 kHz shall be used. The losses
occur due to switching frequency of the inverter shall be minimized as per connected
load. The inverter output should be short circuit proof (electronic short circuit protection).
The regulation and controlling of the system should be built up by a 16-bit micro-controller
using DSP technology.
A control battery shall be provided to furnish logic power, which is independent of the
Inverter input power. The battery shall provide power to alarm system to maintain events
records after a UPS failure and shut down.
8.1.4.3 Static Bypass
The static bypass must consist of an SCR/Thyristor-switch, switching the mains over to
the UPS output. During normal operation the inverter output is switched to the UPS output
while the bypass is blocked. The electronic bypass switch shall be equipped with two
contactors in series, which provide to supply the load from utility to Inverter. The
electronic bypass switch shall consist of a pair of microprocessor controlled thyristors and
contactor in series avoiding a back feed into the mains as per IEC 62040. The electronic
bypass switch shall be able to activate manually by a switch/push button to affect the
transfer. The switching time from Inverter to reserve and vice-versa shall be of No break
when synchronized.
In the event of inverter overload or disturbances, inverter switch-off, the load must
automatically switch over to the bypass without a break. The static bypass should be able
to feed 2000% of the UPS nominal current for one period thereby enabling safety burnout
of the fuses.
The automatic retransfer to the inverter should be blocked if a transfer to the mains was
initiated six times within one minute or if the inverter was not synchronized with the mains.

8.1.4.4 Manual Bypass
Servicing, tests and adjustments shall be carried out without interrupting the load. To do
this a set of manually controlled switches shall be provided that enables the load to be
directly supplied from the mains and to disconnect and isolate the rectifiers, inverters and
the static bypass. The manual bypass feeds the load in case of maintenance or
disturbances of the UPS.
8.1.4.5 Power Conditioner Mode
If the Battery only must be taken out of the service for maintenance or replacement, it will
be disconnected from the rectifier/charger and Inverter by means of a circuit breaker or
Fuse Disconnector.
8.1.4.6 Parallel Operation
When 2 nos or more UPS systems are connected in parallel the specification clause 1.2.3
must be complied to achieve harmonic less than 2.3%. The Parallel redundant operation
should be made possible by using the UPS system with an additional paralleling PCB
called RPI (Redundant Parallel Interface).
With the RPI mounted in each unit, paralleling upto 8 UPS systems should be possible.
The Phase difference between each parallel unit should not be more than 0.03
milliseconds.
In addition to the standard functions as uninterruptible power supply to the load, total
power control and protection of the load from mains distortion, the parallel redundant
system should guarantee an uninterrupted power supply even in case of an internal
failure in one of the UPS units. Additionally, the power rating of an UPS can be increased
by working in parallel operation without any interruption to load connected.
The UPS-units should work without any need of external elements or switches to control
UPS modules in parallel system. The Parallel redundant configuration should not work on
any Master Slave concept instead Peer to Peer concept with no single point
failure is preferred.
A 9-pole shielded wire must interconnect all paralleled UPS systems. The UPS should
consist of an ACTIVE CURRENT CONTROL, which means that installation of coils for
control on the output will not be necessary. Each UPS in the parallel redundant
configuration should consist of its own battery bank.
The bypass for the parallel units should be modular and not centralized i.e., each UPS will
have its own bypass. These will ensurea. That all the bypass units share the power equally when the inverter transfers the load
onto the bypass and each bypass will be capable of handling full rated load
independently.
b. In the event that one UPS has to be removed from the parallel configuration the
removed unit can be utilized as a fully functional stand-alone system elsewhere
8.1.4.7 Energy Management
A intelligent energy management software shall be provided for the programming of
system operation parameters The software shall allow user to program the operating

hours of each UPS in the system during low load conditions so that each UPS operating
at its optimum efficiency. When UPS systems are in parallel and connected load is less
than 50% of the capacity of UPS capacity then redundant UPS shall be shut down until
the load demand goes above 50%. If during off peak condition one UPS fails, the
software shall be able to switch ON one of the two non operating UPS in order to achieve
redundancy request in max 30 sec time.
