Preconditions Work status - Erection has been completed. (The Erection Clearance Certificate [ECC] has been issued.) Labelling of the equipment and designation of live enclosed plant sections has been carried out. Documentation ~ The circuit diagrams of the electrical equipment cabinets are available Commissioning checklists CL-E21 and CL-E22 Personnel = 1. Commissioning engineer: Engineer or technician with experience in commissioning of types of the electrical equipment systems employed in the plant. 1 Helper: skilled worker with adequate on-the-job training, Measuring instruments and tools Single-phase variable-voltage transformer (approx. 0 - 20 V secondary voltage), Single-phase test transformer (approx. 400 V secondary voltage), 4 Ammeter (AC), 1 Voltmeter (AC), X Multimeter (A, V, Ohms). Precautions Observe the rules for handling electronic components sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD measures). - The VDE Regulations for "Erection and Operation of Electrical Power Installations" are to be observed (VDE 0100/0101/0105). ~ Special safety arrangements shall be made for all areas which are not explicitly designated as “electrical operating areas when performing tests at voltages in excess of 50 V. Scope Testing of the plant side cable connections, Checking that the mounting position is correct, Checking of the phase and core assignment, Checking of correct earthing, Ocopyright@siomens AG 2012 | Energy Sector - Power Academy pner-1Testing of CT and VT SIEMENS = Checking of the function. 5. Execution ual checks Checking of the cables for damage and that they are connected correctly, Checking of the mounting position of the current transformers (polarity) ~ Checking of the labelling of the individual cores, checking of the phase/core assignment - Inspection for cleanliness of voltage transformers, high voltage connections and associated cable connections - Inspection of isolators, support structures and earthing connections 5.2 Testing the current transformers, = Secondary spare cores have to be short -circuited - In the case of multi core type current transformers each winding must be tested individually. Enter the rating plate data in check list CL-E22 and compare the current transformer data with the data contained in the circuit documentation. Testing of the current transformers: Apply a voltage of approx. 10 V AC to the secondary winding of the current transformer with the burden removed (at the input terminals of the first cabinet) and with ‘no short-circuit on the primary side. Depending on the type of current transformer a current of between 10 and 50 mA should flow thus, verifying the function of the current transformer. The test is to be carried out individually for each core and phase. Where additional tests have been specified in the contract for current transformers which were not tested at the manufacturer's works, special testing equipment is required. - The burden in each core of each phase is determined by injection of a current of 1 A (or 5 A as appropriate) in the direction of the load and. measurement of the voltage with respect to earth. The voltage across the burden must decrease on moving from burden to burden along the current path. - The measured burden should be compared with the rated data of the current transformer. The residual current of the current transformer can be neglected, i.e. there is no need to open the current transformer terminals. 5.3 Testing of the voltage transformers - Enter the rating plate data in check list CL-E21 and compare the voltage transformer data with the data contained in the circuit documentation. ~ Disconnect the primary-side connections at a suitable location and apply a voltage of approx. 400 V AC to the primary side. - Measure the primary and the secondary voltage at all connection ‘Scopyight@slemens AG 2012 / Eneray Sector~ Power Academy prict-2
