System Fault Level Calculation 15MW AA

This document summarizes the system fault level calculation for a 15MW cogeneration power plant project for TNEB in Arignar Anna. It details the input data used, calculation methodology, and results. The key findings are that the fault current at the 415V bus is 41.89kA which is below the safe limit of 50kA, and the fault current at the 11kV bus is 12.85kA which is below the safe limit of 40kA. Therefore, the system fault levels were found to be safe.

OBJECTIVE: SYSTEM FAULT LEVEL CALCULATION FOR 15MW ARIGNAR ANNA A/c TNEB Project. INPUT DATA AVAILABLE: 1. Alternator Data Sheet : 18.75 MVA , 15MW , 984 A synchronous speed = 1500rpm , p.f 0.8 lag , voltage 11kV +-10% , reactance Xd 26% = 0.26 2. Generator transformer data: As per GTP of M/s Indo Tech Transformers Ltd 15/20 MVA ,11/110kV star / delta , YNd1, Percentage impedance (%Z) 12.5 % with tolerance as per IS (+- 10 % considered). Distribution transformer data: As per GTP of M/s Tech Transformer Ltd. 1.6 MVA , 11/0.433kV ,star / delta , Dyn11, percentage impedance (%Z) 6.25 % No negative tolerance. (Two transformer never operate in parallel, we have considered one transformer for this fault level calculations) 4. DOCUMENT REFERED AT THE TIME OF CALCULATION: AS per electrical load list No. TNEB-WIL-IKE-A11.

A)

Fault MVA at 415 V bus at 1.6 MVA base = = = 1.6 / Z eq 1.6 x 100 / 6.903 23.17 MVA

B) Motor contribution for fault Above 37 KW non VFD motor load as per electrical load list No. TNEB-WIL-IKE-A11.

1) 37kW x 3 Nos (2 Working + 1 Standby ) 2) Total kW = 111

As per the above value against 50kA Conclusion found is SAFE.

C)

Fault MVA at 11kV Bus considering Base kV 0.433V = 1.6 x 100 / (ZB) As per equivalent impedance diagram ZB = 0.6533 Fault MVA at 11kV = 1.6 x 100 / 0.6533 = 244.91 MVA

Fault current on 11kV Bus

= 244.91 / ( 3 x 11 ) = 12.85 kA

As per the above value against 40kA Conclusion found is SAFE.
