The connection of single-wire conductors (by screw or soldering) is allowed only to fixed elements of the equipment. The connection of cores to movable or removable elements of equipment (plug-in connectors, removable blocks, etc.), as well as to panels and devices subject to vibration, should be made with flexible (stranded) cores.

3.4.5. The cross-section of the cores of cables and wires must meet the requirements for their protection against short-circuit without time delay, permissible long-term currents in accordance with Chapter. 1.3, thermal resistance (for circuits coming from current transformers), as well as ensure the operation of devices in a given accuracy class. In this case, the following conditions must be met:

1. Current transformers together with electrical circuits must operate in the accuracy class:

for settlement meters - according to Ch. 1.5; for power measuring transducers used to input information into computing devices - according to Ch. 1.5, as for technical metering meters; for panel devices and current and power measuring transducers used for all types of measurements - not lower than accuracy class 3; for protection, as a rule, within a 10% error (see also Chapter 3.2.).

4. For voltage circuits of AVR devices, the voltage loss from the voltage transformer to the measuring element should be no more than 1%.

3.4.6. In one control cable it is possible to combine control, measurement, protection and signaling circuits of direct and alternating current, as well as power circuits feeding low-power electrical receivers (for example, electric motors of valves).

To avoid an increase in the inductive reactance of the cable cores, the wiring of the secondary circuits of the current and voltage transformers must be done so that the sum of the currents of these circuits in each cable is equal to zero in any mode.

It is allowed to use common cables for circuits of different connections, with the exception of mutually redundant ones.

3.4.7. Cables should generally be connected to clamp assemblies. Connecting two copper wires of a cable under one screw is not recommended, and two aluminum wires are not allowed.

Cables may be connected directly to the terminals of instrument transformers or individual devices.

The design of the clamps must match the material and cross-section of the cable cores.

3.4.8. Connecting control cables in order to increase their length is permitted if the length of the route exceeds the construction length of the cable. The connection of cables with a metal sheath should be carried out with the installation of sealed couplings.

Cables with a non-metallic sheath or with aluminum conductors should be connected on intermediate rows of clamps or using special couplings designed for this type of cable.

3.4.9. Secondary circuit cables, cable cores and wires connected to terminal assemblies or devices must be marked.

3.4.10. Types of wires and cables for secondary circuits, methods of their installation and protection should be selected taking into account the requirements of Chapter. 2.1-2.3 and 3.1 to the extent that they are not changed by this chapter. When laying wires and cables over hot surfaces or in places where the insulation may be exposed to oils and other aggressive environments, special wires and cables should be used (see Chapter 2.1).

Wires and cable cores that have non-light-resistant insulation must be protected from exposure to light.

3.4.11. Cables of secondary circuits of voltage transformers of 110 kV and above, laid from the voltage transformer to the switchboard, must have a metal sheath or armor grounded on both sides. Cables in the circuits of the main and additional windings of one voltage transformer of 110 kV and higher along the entire length of the route should be laid side by side. For circuits of devices and devices that are sensitive to interference from other devices or nearby circuits, shielded wires must be used, as well as control cables with a common shield or cables with shielded conductors.

3.4.12. Installation of direct and alternating current circuits within switchboard devices (panels, consoles, cabinets, boxes, etc.), as well as internal connection diagrams of drives of switches, disconnectors and other devices, according to the conditions of mechanical strength, must be made with wires or cables with copper conductors cross-section not less than:

  • ● for single-wire conductors connected with screw terminals, 1.5 mm2;
  • ● for single-wire conductors connected by soldering, 0.5 mm2;
  • ● for stranded conductors connected by soldering or screwing using special tips, 0.35 mm2; in technically justified cases, it is allowed to use wires with stranded copper conductors, connected by soldering, with a cross-section of less than 0.35 mm2, but not less than 0.2 mm2;
  • ● for cores connected by soldering in circuits with a voltage not exceeding 60 V (control panels and consoles, remote control devices, etc.) - 0.197 mm2 (diameter - not less than 0.5 mm).

The connection of single-wire conductors (by screw or soldering) is allowed only to fixed elements of the equipment. The connection of cores to movable or removable elements of equipment (detachable connectors, removable blocks, etc.) should be done with flexible (stranded) cores.

Mechanical loads on the places where wires are soldered are not allowed.

For transitions to device doors, stranded wires with a cross-section of at least 0.5 mm2 must be used; It is also allowed to use wires with single-wire conductors with a cross-section of at least 1.5 mm2, provided that the wiring harness operates only in torsion.

The cross-section of wires on switchboard devices and other factory-made products is determined by the requirements for their protection against short-circuits without time delay, permissible current loads in accordance with Chapter. 1.3, and for circuits coming from current transformers, in addition, thermal resistance. For installation, wires and cables with insulation that does not support combustion should be used.

The use of wires and cables with aluminum conductors for internal installation of switchboard devices is not allowed.

3.4.13. Connections of devices to each other within the same panel should, as a rule, be made directly without connecting the connecting wires to intermediate terminals.

The terminals or test blocks must contain circuits in which testing and checking apparatus and instruments are required to be included. It is also recommended to output circuits to a number of terminals, the switching of which is required to change the operating mode of the device.

3.4.14. Intermediate clamps should only be installed where:

  • ● the wire turns into a cable;
  • ● circuits of the same name are combined (assembly of terminals for trip circuits, voltage circuits, etc.);
  • ● portable test and measuring apparatus is required to be included if test blocks or similar devices are not available;
  • ● several cables are converted into one cable or circuits of different cables are redistributed (see also 3.4.8).

3.4.15. Terminals belonging to different connections or devices must be separated into separate terminal assemblies.

On the rows of terminals there should not be any clamps in close proximity to one another, the accidental connection of which could cause the connection to be turned on or off or a short circuit in the operational current circuits or in the excitation circuits.

When placing equipment related to different types of protection or other devices of the same connection on a panel (in a cabinet), the supply of power from the operational current poles through the terminal assemblies, as well as the wiring of these circuits throughout the panel, must be carried out independently for each type of protection or device. If linings are not provided in the trip circuits from individual protection sets, then the connection of these circuits to the output protection relay or circuit breaker trip circuits should be carried out through separate terminals of the terminal assembly; in this case, connections along the panel of these circuits should be made independently for each type of protection.

3.4.16. To carry out operational checks and tests in protection and automation circuits, test blocks or measuring clamps should be provided, providing (except for the cases specified in 3.4.7) without disconnecting wires and cables, disconnection from the source of operational current, voltage and current transformers with the possibility of preliminary short-circuiting current circuits; connection of testing devices for checking and adjusting devices.

3.4.17. Clamp assemblies, auxiliary contacts of switches and disconnectors and devices must be installed, and grounding conductors mounted in such a way that accessibility and safety of servicing the assemblies and devices of secondary circuits is ensured without removing the voltage from primary circuits with voltages above 1 kV.

3.4.18. The insulation of equipment used in secondary circuits must comply with the standards determined by the operating voltage of the source (or isolation transformer) feeding these circuits.

Insulation monitoring of operational direct and alternating current circuits should be provided at each independent source (including isolation transformers) that is not grounded.

The insulation monitoring device must provide a signal when the insulation drops below a set value, and at direct current, it must also measure the value of the insulation resistance of the poles. Insulation monitoring may not be performed when the operating current network is unbranched.

3.4.19. Operating current supply to the secondary circuits of each connection should be carried out through separate fuses or circuit breakers (the latter is preferable).

Operating current supply to the relay protection and switch control circuits of each connection must be provided, as a rule, through separate circuit breakers or fuses not connected to other circuits (alarm, electromagnetic blocking, etc.). Shared power supply of control circuits and position signaling lamps of the controlled device is allowed.

For connections of 220 kV and above, as well as for generators (units) with a capacity of 60 MW and more, separate power supply with operating current (from different fuses, circuit breakers) must be provided for the main and backup protections.

When connecting circuit breakers and fuses in series, the latter must be installed in front of the circuit breakers (on the power source side).

3.4.20. Relay protection, automation and control devices for critical elements must have constant monitoring of the state of the operating current supply circuits. Monitoring can be carried out using separate relays or lamps or using devices provided to monitor the health of the circuit of subsequent operation of switching devices with remote control.

For less critical devices, power control can be carried out by sending a signal about the off position of the circuit breaker in the operating current circuit.

Monitoring the health of the subsequent operation circuit must be carried out in the presence of an auxiliary contact of the switching device. In this case, monitoring the serviceability of the shutdown circuit must be carried out in all cases, and monitoring the serviceability of the switching circuit must be carried out on switches of critical elements, short circuiters and on devices switched on under the influence of automatic transfer transfer devices (ATS) or telecontrol.

If the parameters of the drive enable circuits do not provide the ability to monitor the serviceability of this circuit, monitoring is not performed.

3.4.21. In electrical installations, as a rule, an automatic signal must be provided about a violation of the normal operating mode and about the occurrence of any malfunctions.

Checking the serviceability of this alarm system should include periodic testing.

In electrical installations operating without constant personnel duty, a signal must be provided to the location of the personnel.

3.4.22. Operating current circuits in which false operation of various devices is possible from overvoltage during the operation of switching electromagnets or other devices, as well as during ground faults, must be protected.

3.4.23. Grounding in the secondary circuits of current transformers should be provided at one point on the terminal assembly closest to the current transformers or on the terminals of the current transformers.

For protections combining several sets of current transformers, grounding must also be provided at one point; in this case, grounding is allowed through a breakdown fuse with a breakdown voltage of no higher than 1 kV with a shunt resistance of 100 Ohms to drain the static charge.

The secondary windings of intermediate isolating current transformers may not be grounded.

3.4.24. The secondary windings of the voltage transformer must be grounded by connecting the neutral point or one of the ends of the winding to a grounding device.

Grounding of the secondary windings of a voltage transformer must be carried out, as a rule, at the terminal assembly closest to the voltage transformer or at the terminals of the voltage transformer.

It is allowed to combine the grounded secondary circuits of several voltage transformers of one switchgear with a common grounding busbar. If the specified busbars belong to different switchgears and are located in different rooms (for example, relay boards of switchgears of different voltages), then these busbars, as a rule, should not be connected to each other.

For voltage transformers used as sources of operational alternating current, if working grounding of one of the poles of the operational current network is not provided, protective grounding of the secondary windings of the voltage transformers must be carried out through a breakdown fuse.

3.4.25. Voltage transformers must be protected from short circuits in secondary circuits by automatic switches. Circuit breakers should be installed in all ungrounded conductors after assembling the terminals, with the exception of the zero-sequence circuit (open delta) of voltage transformers in networks with high ground fault currents.

For unbranched voltage circuits, circuit breakers may not be installed.

In the secondary circuits of the voltage transformer, it must be possible to create a visible break (switches, detachable connectors, etc.).

The installation of devices that can create a break in the conductors between the voltage transformer and the grounding point of its secondary circuits is not allowed.

3.4.26. On voltage transformers installed in networks with low ground fault currents without capacitive current compensation (for example, on the generator voltage of a generator-transformer unit, on the auxiliary voltage of power plants and substations), if necessary, protection against overvoltage should be provided in case of spontaneous neutral displacements. Protection can be achieved by including active resistances in an open delta circuit.

3.4.27. In the secondary circuits of linear voltage transformers of 220 kV and above, redundancy from another voltage transformer must be provided.

It is allowed to perform mutual redundancy between linear voltage transformers if they have sufficient power for the secondary load.

3.4.28. Voltage transformers must have monitoring of the health of voltage circuits.

Relay protection, the circuits of which are powered by voltage transformers, must be equipped with the devices specified in 3.2.8.

Regardless of the presence or absence of the protection circuits of the specified devices, the following signals must be provided:

  • ● when disconnecting circuit breakers - using their auxiliary contacts;
  • ● in case of malfunctions in the operation of repeater relays of bus disconnectors - with the help of monitoring devices for open control circuits and repeater relays;
  • ● for voltage transformers, in the circuit of the high voltage windings of which fuses are installed, in case of violation of the integrity of the fuses - using central devices.

11.1 Selection of measuring current transformers, cross-section of cable cores

11.1.1 Current transformers

The project describes the general principle for selecting current transformers (CTs), and provides methods and algorithms for calculating CT parameters.

Current transformers used for commercial metering of electricity must be included in the state register of measuring instruments and have a valid certificate (mark in the passport) of verification of measuring instruments.

Current transformers are selected according to rated voltage, primary and secondary currents, type of installation, design, accuracy class.

To connect estimated electricity meters, current transformers with an accuracy class of no more than 0.5S are used.

CT installation is carried out on connections with voltage class 0.4 kV.

The PUE (Chapter 1.5 “Electricity metering”) is used as the main regulatory documents regulating the requirements for the placement of CTs and their parameters.

11.1.2. Methodology for selecting current transformers.

Choice of CT design.

Taking into account the design features of the low voltage assembly, the location of the current-carrying busbars from the power transformer, it is necessary to use busbar current transformers of the TShP-0.66, TSh-0.66 type, and reference current transformers of the TOP-0.66 type.

11.1.3. Calculation of CT transformation ratio.

The transformation ratio for each point must be selected taking into account the minimum and maximum primary currents on operating days (summer minimum and winter maximum) or data on the connected power of the subscriber, or fuse settings or the installed power of the power transformer (for organizing technical accounting on TP beams). The maximum rated current is calculated using the formula:

, A

The minimum current is assumed to be 15% of the maximum:

, A

According to the PUE (clause 1.5.17), the use of current transformers with an overestimated transformation ratio is allowed if, at the maximum load of the connection, the current in the secondary winding of the current transformer is at least 40% of the rated current of the meter, and at a minimum operating load - at least 5%. The choice of CT consists of selecting a CT with a rated primary current that satisfies the condition:

11.1.4. Checking the choice of CT transformation ratio

The selected TT coefficients are checked for compliance with clause 1.5.17 of the PUE. When using electric meters of the type with Inom meter = 5 A, the following inequalities must be satisfied:

; .

Current transformers must be installed type TShP-0.66, or TSh-0.66, with an accuracy class of 0.5S, with a rated secondary load of 5 VA.

The calculated connection currents and selected transformation ratios are given in Appendix 11.1., Table 11.1.

11.2. Calculation of CT secondary load.

To ensure that the CT error does not exceed the permissible value for a given accuracy class, the load of the secondary windings of instrument transformers in accordance with GOST 7746 must meet the following requirements: “for transformers with rated secondary loads 1; 2; 2.5; 3; 5 and 10 VA lower limit of secondary loads - 0.8; 1.25; 1.5; 1.75; 3.75 and 3.75 VA respectively.” For CTs with rated secondary loads above 10 W, the secondary load must be at least 25% of the rated load and must not exceed the rated load specified in the catalogs.

The project provides for the use of current transformers of the TShP -0.66 and T-0.66 types. The CT accuracy class is 0.5S, the rated secondary load is 5 VA and the rated secondary current is 5 A. In accordance with the requirements of GOST 7746, the calculated value of the CT secondary load must be in the range: 3.75 VA ... 5 VA (0.15 Ohm ... 0.2 Ohm).

According to GOST 7746, the rated secondary load is the total resistance of the external secondary circuit of the current transformer, which has a power factor of cos φ = 0.8, at which the accuracy class of the current transformer is guaranteed.

The current transformer load consists of the following elements: the resistance of the wires connecting the electric energy meter to the current transformers; resistance of devices included in the current transformer circuit; transition resistance in contact connections.

The external load on the current transformer is determined taking into account the connection diagram of the current transformers, the catalog data for the meters and the calculated data for the length of the CT secondary circuits given in the cable log (AIIS-2007.4TO-2x630.S6).

When calculating the external load of a current transformer, for simplicity, it is assumed that all impedances have the same angles, i.e., they can be added arithmetically. This assumption is acceptable since the error introduced by this is usually small and goes towards the additional margin.

The secondary load of current transformers is determined by the formula,

, Where

— the transition resistance in the contacts is assumed to be 0.05 Ohm;

— resistance of the wires, Ohm (in the case of connecting current transformers with a star in the test terminal box, increase the resistance by 2 times);

— device resistance, Ohm

When selecting current transformers, the following condition must be met:

,

where is the rated load capacity of the current transformer in the selected accuracy class.

The resistance of the wires for the connection circuit of the meter and CT according to the “star” circuit is determined by the formula:

,

where is the length of the wire, m;

— specific conductivity, Ohm/m;

— cross-section of the wire or cable core;

The resistance of the meter is determined from the catalog for the corresponding equipment directly or by recalculation using the data on power consumption and current available in the catalog according to the formula,

,

where is the power, VA, consumed by the device at current I, A.

For the types of meters considered in the project, the power consumed by each current circuit does not exceed 0.1 VA, therefore = 0.004 Ohm.

Load calculations for the secondary measuring circuits of current transformers are given in Appendix 11.1., Table 11.2.
