Constituents are requested to furnish the following information in respect of the

above grid occurrences to have fruitful discussions in the PCSC forum.

(a) Single line diagram of the station with switching devices, CT, PT and relay

details

(b) Relay settings adopted

(c) Remedial measures/ Action taken

3.2 In compliance of Regulations 5.2 (r) of IEGC – as per the provisions under clause

1.5 of IEGC 2010, the Constituents are requested to furnish the following information in respect of Grid Occurrences (indicated as in Annexure-II) latest

by 20.04.2015:

(a) First Information Report (FIR)

(b) Event Logger (EL) output

(d) Trip event analysis report (with pre and post fault system conditions)

Non-furnishing of Tripping details including Disturbance Recorder/Sequential

Event logger output would be discussed in the meeting.

4. Kudankulam SPS (load relief by the constituents) with 2 Units in operation

A meeting was held with NPCIL/ KKNPP on 07.04.2015 at SRPC, Bengaluru to

discuss the operational and accounting issues in respect of KKNPP Units. In the

meeting, the following issues with respect to Kudankulam SPS were noted:

Presently Trip Signal 1 only was commissioned and would be triggerred when

power loss on account of tripping of Units at Kudankulam is more than 500 MW

and would be sent via Kolar to shed loads in Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu,

Karnataka, Kerala.

It was noted that the SPS for two units in operation needed to be configured at

KKNPP. Constituents were to identify additional loads of 700-800 MW for Trip

Signal-2. As per NLDC new feeders are to be identified by the SR-Constituents

for the above quantum of load shedding.

It was agreed that the implementation of SPS (for 2 units in operation) would

be deliberated in the next Protection Sub Committee Meeting as the Unit II was

likely to be synchronized shortly.

5. Submission of reports/compliance by Constituents
