At APSCL three types of excitation systems are used. These are:
AC Excitation System: Used in steam turbine 1and 2.
Static Excitation System: Used in steam turbine 3, 4 and 5.
Brushless Excitation System: Used in gas turbine 1and 2.

At APSCL two types of relay is used. There are:
Electrical relay: Use for protection at units 1 and 2.
Tripping condition manually.
Larger size.
Electronic relay: Microcontroller based relay.
Very effective and fast to trip the circuit.
Use for protection at units 3, 4 and 5.
Protection of generator: Generator differential protection.
Stator over-heating protection.
Rotor temperature protection.
Rotor earth fault protection.
Over frequency protection.

Step up transformer
In APSCL we have seen three types of transformer.
Current Transformer Potential Transformer
Used for measuring
the current in electric
equipment
Connected in series
Reduce current when measuring
Used for measuring
the voltage in the circuit
connected in parallel
Rated voltage – 132KV &
230KV
Rated frequency – 50Hz
Used to increase the voltage
Secondary part is connected

Lightning Arrester Circuit Breaker
SF6 CB
Oil CB
A lightning arrester is a
device used on
electrical power system to
protect the
insulation system and other
equipment from the damaging
effect of lightning
In electrical engineering,
an isolator is used
to make sure that
an electrical circuit
can be completely
de-energized for
service or maintenance

Duration of 100 hours are not sufficient to gather all the knowledge.
Generator section was too much hot. Temperature around 40°C - 45°C.
Generator section was also too much noisy.
Recommendation• Student must have a clear theoretical knowledge about a power station
before the internship.
• At the station anything should not be touched without permission because this is high voltage power station.
• If any problem is faced to understand the relevant topics at the student should ask the supervisor.
