 INTRUDUCTION
• The Sharavathi Receiving Station (SRS) is the one of the receiving station which is located at Vidyuthnagara,
Davangere. The station is established on the year 1982 which is named under the river sharavathi.

• There are 5, 220kv lines and 8 outgoing lines at 66kv for SRS. The station receives power from the high voltage end
i.e., from 220kv line and step downs to 66kv, further the step- down power fed to the consumers through the feeders.
• The incoming and outgoing lines for 220kV SRS Davangere are of 5 ways. They are

1) Guttur-2
2) Honnali
3) Shivamogga
4) Guttur-3
5) Guttur-1
• Guttur-2, Guttur-3 and Guttur-1 are the incoming lines whereas Honnali and Shivamogga are the outgoing lines in
general. But sometimes Honnali and Shivamogga also act as incoming lines whenever necessary

INSULATRORS

1. Pin Insulator
2. Suspension Insulator
3. Strain Insulator
4. Stay Insulator
5. Shackle Insulator
 LIGHTENING ARRESTER:

1. To act like a open circuit during the normal operation pf the system
i.e., to hold off the system voltage,
2. To limit the transient voltage to a safe level with the minimum
delay and fitter, and
3. To bring the system back to its normal operation mode as soon as
the transient voltage is suppressed,i.e., to interrupt the power –
follow current and to reseal itself.
WAVE TRAP :
A line trap, also known as wave trap. Or high-frequency stopper, is a
maintenance- free parallel resonant circuit, mounted inline on high-voltage (HV)
AC transmission power lines to prevent the transmission of high frequency (40
kHz to 1000 kHz) carrier signals Of power line communication to unwanted
destination. Line traps are cylinder-like structures connected in series with HV
transmission lines. A line is also called a wave trap.
The line trap acts as a barrier or filter to prevent signal losses.
Electrical power has a frequency of 50 Hz or 60 Hz in most places, and
the communication waves use frequencies such as 150 kHz and 200
kHz. Line traps consist of filter circuits that allow only power frequency
waves to travel to that of electrical equipment.
• CAPACITIVE VOLTAGE TRANASFORMER:
The capacitive voltage transformer step-down the high voltage input signals and provide
the low voltage signals which can easily measure through the measuring instrument.
CVT is rated for high voltage levels above 100kV, while PTs aren't designed for such
large values. CVT's offer the advantage that the voltage divider capacitor, being itself
relatively smaller and lighter

CURRENT TRANSFORMER:
Current Transformer (C.T.), is a type of "instrument transformer" that is designed to
produce an alternating current in its secondary winding which is proportional to the
current being measured in its primary. Current transformers reduce high voltage
currents to a much lower value and provide a convenient way of safely monitoring
the actual electrical current flowing in an AC transmission line using a standard
ammeter. typical 220/66 KV CT has five cores which are used for following
functions:
Core 1: Main I protection
Core 2: Main 2 protection
Core 3: Metering
Core 4: Bus bar 1 protection
Core 5: Bus bar 2 protection
 CIRCUIT BREAKER
• A circuit breaker is an automatically operated electrical switch designed to protect an electrical circuit from damage caused by overload or
short circuit. Its basic function is to detect a condition and by interrupting continuity, to immediately discontinue electrical flow

 Oil circuit breaker

 Air blast circuit breaker
 Vacuum circuit breaker

 Sulphur hexafluoride (SF6) circuit breaker

SF6 circuit breakers are the most commonly used circuit breakers particularly the
EHV & UHV system, the SF6 gas is used for extinction of the arc. SF6 gas is a
chemically inert non inflammable

EARTH SWITCH
The Earth Switch is a manually/motor operated device with safety interlocking keys, designed to ground
electrical circuit on both sides. This ensures the safety of the maintenance personnel during maintenance and
routine checking.
In substations earth switches are provided in isolators, when the isolators are closed than earth switch is open
and when isolators are opened the earth switch is closed.
This is provided only for safety of the persons working during maintenance and testing of any equipment
(circuit breaker, isolator, CT, PT) of a bay.
 Bus-bars
• Bus-Bar actually works as a matchmaker between higher voltage level transformers and lower voltage level transformers connecting
others equipment to functional a co-relation between them. The commonly used bus bar schemes for high voltage and extra high voltage
at 132kV, 230kV, or 400kV Sub Stations are as below:
1. Single bus bar;
2. Main and Transfer bus bar;
3. Double bus bar;
4. Double main and transfer bus bar;
5. One and a half-breaker scheme.
1. Reactor
• A shunt reactor is a piece of electrical equipment used in high voltage power transmission
systems to stabilize the voltage during load variations. A traditional shunt reactor has a fixed
rating and is either connected to the transmission line all the time or switched in and out
depending on the loadthree phase shunt reactor is generally connected to 220KV or above
electrical bus system for capacitive reactive power compensation of the power system
And to control dynamic over voltage occurring in the system due to load rejection.
• Interconnected Transformer (ICT):
• ICT is used to step down the EHV transmission voltage (220KV) to HV transmission voltage (66KV).
• Normally 315 MVA auto-transformers are being used.
• The secondary winding provides 220KV voltages and other 33KV voltage (tertiary winding).
• Usually, tertiary winding is connected in closed in delta formation and can be used for auxiliary station

supply purpose.

• RELAYS:
• Relays are the devices that detect abnormal conditions in electrical circuits by constantly measuring electrical quantities, which are
different under normal and fault conditions. The basic electrical quantities, which may change under fault conditions, are voltage,
current, phase angle and frequency. Having detected the faults the relays operates to competent the trip circuit which result in opening
of the circuits breaker and therefore in the disconnection of the faulty circuits.
The various types of relays installed at 220 KV Station are: -

 Over current relays

Directional type over current relays works on the induction principles and initiates
corrective measures when current in the circuit. Exceed the pre- determined value.

 Differential relays
differential relay is one that operates when the difference of two or more electrical quantities exceeds a predetermined value.
differential relay is one that compares the current entering a section of the current leaving the section.
Under normal operating condition no longer applies.
If this differential current is equal to or greater than the pick-up value, the relay will operate & open the circuit breaker to
isolate the faulty section. Under healthy condition equal current flows in both primary windings.
Therefore the secondary voltages are balanced against each other & no current will through the relay-operating coil.
 Earth Fault Relay:
When current in the circuit exceeds the predetermined values. The actuating source is a current in the
circuit supplied to the relay from a CT. these relays are unsuitable for use as directional protective relays
under short-circuit conditions. When a short circuit occurs, the system values falls to a low value and there
may be insufficient torque developed in the relay to cause its operation.

 Master trip relay

Master trip relay is a contact multiplication or an Auxiliary relay, which operates on the command from Multiple protection relays
and gives a Single Command to the Breaker Trip Coil. Creates an Isolation between Protection Relay and the Breaker Tripping Coil.
If there Is some problem in the Tripping Circuit, if 86 Relay is not used, the Protection Relay Contacts will get burned.
 BATTERIES:
 For controlling various operations of substation equipment's, suitable D.C. supply is required. In battery charger panel, A.C. 1
phase or 3 phases is given, which converts A.C. to D.C. supply. This D.C. supply is given to various control panels of substation
and for charging the batteries through D.C. Distribution Board. (DCDB) In case of A.C. supply failure, batteries provide D.C.
supply for controlling the operations of substation equipment's in normal or abnormal conditions
 Ratings of Battery Set Used:
 300 Ah for source 1 for 220kV
 300 Ah for source 2 for 220kV
 100 Ah for 66kV
 Ratings of Battery Charger Used:
 CP-220V/81 for source 1
 CP-220V/81 for source 2
 CONTROL ROOM:
• A control room is an operations center, and control room solutions bring together multiple information materials in real-time. Data
is put forward in a visual format that is controllable, and it can be displayed at multiple sizes and resolutions. This enables a firm
to have control over its environment at all times.

• The relays, protection and control panels are installed in the controlled room.

These panels along with PC aids in automatic operation of various circuit breakers,

tap changers, autoreclosers, sectionalizing switches and other devices during faults

and abnormal conditions.

• The task of control system in a substation includes data collection, scanning, event

reporting and recording, voltage control, frequency control, other automatic and semiautomatic controls etc.
• CONCLUSION
• In conclusion, the one-month substation training provided a valuable hands-on experience in the field of electrical
engineering. The immersive program exposed us to a wide range of essential concepts such as transformers, circuit
breakers, and switchgear operations.
• Moreover, working alongside seasoned professionals helped us grasp the importance of safety protocols in handling
high- voltage equipment.
