ANNEXURE I
Cxxxix
Section
1.0
GENERAL
Unless otherwise stipulated, all equipment together with its associated connectors,
wherever applicable, shall be tested for external corona both by observing the
voltage level for the extinction of visible corona under falling power frequency
voltage and by measurement of Radio Interference Voltage (RIV).
2.0
TEST LEVELS
The test voltage levels for measurement of external RIV and for corona extinction
voltage are listed under the relevant clauses of the specification.
3.0
3.1
RIV tests shall be made according to measuring circuit as per International Special
Committee on Radio Interference (CISPR) Publication 16-1 (1993) Part 1. The
measuring circuit shall preferably be tuned to frequency with 10% of 0.5 MHz but
other frequencies in the range of 0.5 MHz to 2 MHz may be used, the measuring
frequency being recorded. The results shall be in microvolt.
3.2
3.3
3.4
Ambient noise shall be measured before and after each series of tests to ensure
that there is no variation in ambient noise level. If variation is present, the lowest
ambient noise level will form basis for the measurements. RIV levels shall be
measured at increasing and decreasing voltages of 85%, 100% 115% and 130% of
the specified RIV test voltage for all equipment unless otherwise specified. The
specified RIV test voltage is listed in the detailed specification together with
maximum permissible RIV level in microvolts.
3.5
3.6
The RIV measurement may be made with a noise meter. A calibration procedure
of the frequency to which noise meter shall be tuned shall establish the ratio of
voltage at the high voltage terminal to voltage read by noise meter.
4.0
Section
4.1
The purpose of this test is to determine the corona extinction voltage of apparatus,
connectors, etc. The test shall be carried out in the same manner as RIV test
described above with the exception that RIV measurement are not required during
test and a search technique shall be used near the onset and extinction voltage,
when the test voltage is raised and lowered to determine their precise values. The
test voltage shall be raised and lowered to determine their precise values. The test
voltage shall be raised to 130% of RIV test voltage and maintained there for five
minutes. In case corona inception does not take place at 130%, test shall be
stopped, otherwise the test shall be continued and the voltage will then be
decreased slowly until all visible coronas disappear. The procedure shall be
repeated at least 4 times with corona inception and extinction voltage recorded
each time. The corona extinction voltage for purpose of determining compliance
with the specification shall be the lowest of the four values at which visible corona
(negative or positive polarity) disappears. Photographs with laboratory in
complete darkness shall be taken under test conditions, at all voltage steps. i.e
85% 100%, 115% and 130%. Additional photographs shall be taken at corona
inception and extinction voltages. At least two views shall be photographed in
each case using Panchromatic film with ASA daylight rating of 400 with an
exposure of two minutes at a lens aperture of f/5.6 or equivalent. The
photographic process shall be such that prints are available for inspection and
comparison with conditions as determined from direct observation. Photographs
shall be taken from above and below the level of connector so as to show corona
on bushing, insulators and all parts of energized connectors. The photographs
shall be framed such that test object essentially fills the frame with no cut off.
For recording purpose, modern devices utilizing UV recording methods such as
image intensifier may also be used.
4.2
4.3
In addition to the photographs of the test object preferably four photographs shall
be taken of the complete test assembly showing relative positions of all the test
equipment and test objects. These four photographs shall be taken from four
points equally spaced around the test arrangement to show its features from all
sides. Drawings of the laboratory and test set up locations shall be provided to
indicate camera positions and angles. The precise location of camera shall be
approved by Owners/Purchasers inspector, after determining the best camera
locations by trial energisation of test object at a voltage which results in corona.
4.4
The test to determine the visible corona extinction voltage need not be carried out
simultaneously with test to determine RIV levels,
4.5
However, both tests shall be carried out with the same test set up and with as little
time duration between tests as possible. No modification on treatment of the
sample between tests will be allowed. Simultaneous RIV and visible corona
extinction voltage testing may be permitted at the discretion of
Owners/Purchasers inspector if, in his opinion, it will not prejudice other test.

Section III : Control and Relay Panels
Buchholz relay paralleled with pressure relief valve or RPRR (Rapid Pressure
Rise Relay)
Tripping of all circuit breakers (on HV &LV/IV side) associated with
transformer / reactor is the pre-requisite for activation of system.
General description
Nitrogen injection fire protection system should be a dedicated system for each oil
filled transformer / reactor. It should have a Fire Extinguishing Cubicle (FEC) placed
on a plinth at a distance of 5-10 m away from transformer / reactor or placed next to
the fire wall (if fire fighting wall exists). The FEC shall be connected to the top of
transformer/reactor oil tank for depressurization of tank and to the oil pit (capacity is
approximately equal to 10% of total volume of oil in transformer/reactor tank) from
its bottom through oil pipes. The fire extinguishing cubicle should house a
pressurized nitrogen cylinder(s) which is connected to the oil tank of
transformer/reactor oil tank at bottom. The Transformer Conservator Isolation Valve
(TCIV) is fitted between the conservator tank and Buchholz relay. Cable connections
are to be provided from signal box to the control box in the control room, from
control box to fire extinguishing cubicle and from TCIV to signal box. Fire detectors
placed on the top of transformer/reactor tank are to be connected in parallel to the
signal box by Fire survival cables. Control box is also to be connected to relay panel
in control room for receiving system activation signals.
1.3
Operation
On receipt of all activating signals, the system shall drain pre-determined volume of
hot oil from the top of tank (i.e top oil layer), through outlet valve, to reduce tank
pressure by removing top oil and simultaneously injecting nitrogen gas at high
pressure for stirring the oil at pre-fixed rate and thus bringing the temperature of top
oil layer down. Transformer conservator isolation valve blocks the flow of oil from
conservator tank in case of tank rupture / explosion or bushing bursting. Nitrogen
occupies the space created by oil drained out and acts as an insulating layer over oil in
the tank and thus preventing aggravation of fire.
