Very interesting article to share about another significant project performed by ABB Electrification Service, improving the availability, reliability, and sustainability of low voltage installations. Eco-friendly upgrades extend the equipment’s lifetime by adding new digital features, increasing safety, and promoting sustainability by replacing only outdated components. More than 50 percent of electrical equipment, including metal cabinets for switchgear, steel plates, and busbars, can be used indefinitely without replacement if outdated components like circuit breakers, relays, and internal parts are upgraded, regularly monitored, and maintained,” attests ABB. Norway’s largest waste-to-energy plant can now be confident of reliable, safe and efficient operations for many years to come, with upgrade that includes ABB’s UMC 100.3 motor controllers and Emax2 air circuit breakers. These upgrades offer Ekip Touch relay protection and energy metering, integrating intelligent systems for enhanced interconnectivity, smart automation and improved condition monitoring. Plus, Emax2 is also the only breaker of its kind that not only protects the plant’s electrical circuits but also reduces energy consumption. https://lnkd.in/dT5p67KG #ABB #ELService #service #power #assetmanagement #upgrade #retrofits #lifecyclemanagement #electrification #services #retrofit #sustainability #modernization #energy

When paralleled to the utility bus, synchronous generators can be controlled using either terminal voltage or VAr/power factor (PF) control. Selection of mode of operation is dependent upon the size of the generator. For large generators, these machines are usually terminal voltage regulated and dictate the system's bus voltage. When smaller, terminal voltage regulated generators, are synchronized to a stiff utility bus, the system voltage will not change as the smaller generator shares reactive loading. However, if the system voltage changes significantly, the smaller generator, with its continuous acting terminal voltage regulator, will attempt to maintain the voltage set point. As the voltage regulator follows its characteristic curve, it may cause either over or under excitation of the smaller generator. Excessive system voltage may cause a small generator to lose synchronizing torque, while low system voltage may cause excessive heating on the generator or excessive overcurrent operation of the excitation system. Maintaining a constant reactive load on the smaller generating unit can reduce the generator field current variations and, thus, reduce the maintenance of the collector rings and brushes. It is reported and known that power plants machines in VAr/PF control mode caused/contributed to system voltage collapse. The purpose of the AVR is to support system voltage. If you are in VAR/PF control you will do nothing to prevent a voltage collapse. As an electrical generation company, it may be a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) requirement to support system voltage stability. It is advised to check PPA and have some conversation with someone from relevant authority as it may be a requirement for interconnected generators with grid to run with the AVR in voltage control mode. It is important that the AVR switches back to Voltage control mode whenever the connection with the grid is lost and the generator is islanded with the plant load. We must check with AVR OEM to confirm if auto switchback to Voltage control mode will happen or not. A VAr or PF setpoint is just a condition that the operator either decides to run the unit(s) at or that the operator is contractually required to run the unit(s) at. (Yes; it can be specified in a purchased power agreement what VAr setting or pf the unit is to be operated) A pf of 0.85 means that 85% of the energy going into the generator, I.e. air gap power, is going out as real power (again, Watts, KW, MW); the remainder is going "out" (or "in", depending on the whether the pf is lagging or leading, respectively) as reactive power. Power producers don't generally get paid for "producing" VAr; they get paid for producing watts, KW, MW. So, most power producers, left to their own decisions, will chose to produce power at a unity power factor, 1.0, or, to "produce" zero VAr. #Modes_of_Operation #Synchronous_Generators
