Outdoor Type 25kV Vacuum SP /DP / Pole Mounted versions of CBs and Interrupters. 3.0 3.1 3.1.1 Traction Power Supply General Scheme The Single Phase 50Hz Power Supply for Railway Traction at 25kV is obtained from 220/132/110/100/66/22kV three phase grid system through a step down/ step up single phase Power Transformer, the primary winding of which is connected to two of the phase of the three phase effectively earthed transmission line network of the State Electricity Board. The primary voltage of the Traction Transformer being 220kV or 132kV or 110kV or 100kV or 66kV or 22kV and no load secondary voltage being 27kV. In order to reduce the imbalance on the three-phase grid system, the two phases of the three phase transmission line are tapped in a cyclic order for feeding the successive traction sub-

stations (TSS). The distance between adjacent TSS is normally between 50km and 80km depending upon density of traffic, gradients in the sections and other factors. 3.1.2 One terminal of the 25 kV secondary winding of the traction transformer is connected to the OHE through circuit breaker/interrupters and the other terminal is solidly earthed and connected to the appropriate traction rail(s).The current flows through the OHE, to the locomotives and returns through the rails and earth to the TSS .In sections where booster transformers and return conductors are provided the current returns through Booster Transformers; the Traction Rail(s)and partly through earth in the vicinity of TSS. Approximately midway between two TSS a dead zone known as Neutral Section or Phase break is provided t separate the two sections of OHE fed by different phases. The power fed to the OHE on one side of the TSS is controlled by feeder circuit breakers while the power fed to the OHE of each track is controlled by an interrupter. Incase of a fault on the OHE, the feeder circuit breaker trips to isolate the faulty OHE.A schematic diagram No.ETI/PSI/702 (Mod. B) Showing the general arrangement at a TSS is at appendix 1. TRACTION POWER SUPPLY SYSTEMS (2x25kV AT Feeding System) General Scheme The electric power for railway traction is supplied in ac 50Hz, single phase through 2x25kV AT feeding system, which has a feeding voltage form the substation two times as high (2x25kV) as catenary voltage (25kV) this high voltage power supply from the traction substation through catenary wire and feeder wire is step down to the catenary voltage by use of autotransformers installed about every 13 to 17 km along the tract and then fed to the locomotives. In other words both the catenary voltage and feeder voltage are 25kV against the rail, although the substation feeding voltage between the catenary voltage and feeder is 50kV. Therefore the catenary voltage is same is that of the conventional 25kV system. Since the power is supplied in two times higher voltage, 2x25kV AT feeding system is suitable for a large power supply, and it has the following advantages compared with conventional feeding systems: a) Less voltage drops in feeder circuit. b) Large spacing of traction substation.
3.2 3.2.1
Page 8 of 67
c) Less telecommunication interference by use of AT Installed with adequate spacing. The power is obtained from 220/2x25 kV Scott connected traction transformer or 132/2x25kv single phase transformers. The primary windings of the single phase transformers are connected to 2 or 3 phases of 132kv three phase effectively earthed transmission network of the electricity board, in case of a single phase transformer or in case of the single phase transformers connected in V, respectively. On the other hand, the primary windings of the Scott connected transformers are connected to the three phases of 220kv Three phase, effectively earthed transmission network of the electricity board .The Scott-connected transformer and V-connected single phase Transformers are effective in reducing voltage unbalance on the transmission network of the electricity board. The spacing between the adjacent substations is normally between 70-100kms. One outer side terminal of the secondary windings of traction transformer is connected to the catenary, the other outer side terminal being connected to the feeder. Two inner side terminals are, via series capacitors or directly, connected to each other, and their joint is solidly earthed and connected to the running rails. The load current from the substations flows through the catenary and returns to the substation through the feeder. Between two adjacent ATs, the load current fed from catenary to the locomotive flows in the rail and is boosted up to the feeder through the neutral tap of ATs at left and right sides of the locomotive. At the points of the substations and sectioning posts, a dead zone known as neutral section is provided in OHE to avoid a wrong phase coupling. The power to the catenary and feeder on one side of the substation is fed by one feeder circuit breaker, even if there exists two breakers for one side, and each track is controlled by an interrupter. The two breakers are used as a standby for each other. For maintenance work and keeping the voltage drop within limits, one or more sub sectioning or paralleling posts(known as SSP) are introduced between the traction substations and a sectioning and paralleling post(Known as SP).A SSP on a double track section normally has four sectioning interrupters for each feeder circuit
Page 9 of 67
and one paralleling interrupter. In case of fault , feeder circuit breaker of the substation isolates it. A figure showing the principle of AT feeding system and a typical power supply diagram showing the general feeding arrangement at a traction substation and sections of the OHE are given in the sketch at the appendix-1and appendix-11. 3.3 3.3.1 Nature of Faults on the OHE OHE is prone to frequent earth faults caused by failure of insulation or by snapping and touching the rail/earth or by a piece of wire dropped by birds which connects the OHE to earth at over line structures/supports or by miscreant activities. The sections of OHE fed by different phases are sometimes in inadvertently bridged causing wrong phase coupling. Protection Scheme The faults in the OHE are isolated by the feeder circuit beaker which operates through either one or more of the following relays: (i) (ii) (iii) (iv) 3.4.2 Distance mho relay Instantaneous over- current relay Wrong phase coupling relay and High speed inter tripping relay

(iii) (iv) Differential relay IDMT over current relays for the primary (HV) as well as for the secondary (LV) side Instantaneous earth leakage relays on the primary (HV) as well as for the secondary (LV) side. Auxiliary relays for transformer faults ie.Buchholz,excessive winding and oil temperature trip and alarm and low oil level alarm

3.4.3
The faults in the shunt capacitor bank are isolated by one of the following Relays: (i) Over current relay
(ii) Over voltage relay (ii) Under voltage relay (iv) Neutral current relay 3.4.4 In the event of the 25kV feeder as well as Transformer Circuit Breakers Failing to operate under fault conditions, the Circuit Breakers on the Primary side of the Transformer operates to Isolate the fault. Short circuit level The fault level for different grid Supply Voltages based on a three Phase symmetrical short circuit fault is between 1000 MVA and 10,000 MVA Depending upon the proximity of the Traction Sub- Station to the Generating Station. The fault level is 550 MVA at 25kV & 1000 MVA at 22KV at the Vicinity of Traction Sub- Station. Nature of load on 25 kV systems The traction load is of frequent and rapidly varying nature and fluctuates between no load and over loads. The load cycle varies from day to day due to non-uniform pattern of traffic. An AC electric locomotive is fitted with single phase bridge connected silicon Rectifier with smoothening reactor for conversion of ac to dc for feeding the dc traction motors. The ripple content is in the region of 25 to 40% which introduces harmonics in the 25kV power supply. The typical percentages of harmonics present in the traction current are as follows: Sl.

The average power factor of electric locomotive and multiple units Trains generally vary between 0.7 and 0.8 lagging without Compensation. In big yards and loco sheds large number of locomotives / Electrical Multiple units (Emus) stand idle with only the load of their auxiliaries Drawing higher reactive power. Therefore these are drawing power at Low Power Factor. For improving power factor fixed shunt capacitor bank with 13% Series Reactor is also installed at some traction sub-stations, the Net KVAR Rating of which is generally in the range of 2000- 3500kVAR. Electrical parameters OHE is made up of a stranded cadmium copper catenary of 65 Sq.mm Cross section or stranded aluminum alloy catenary of 116sq mm cross Section and a grooved copper contact wire of 107sq.mm cross section, Making up a total of 150sq.mm copper equivalent. For 2 x 25 AT feeding systems, as a feeder wire, a stranded aluminum alloy catenary of 240 sq.mm is used. The calculated OHE impedance value of AT Feeding circuit (OHE: Al 116 or Cu 107 sq.mm & feeder wire: Al 240sq.mm) for single Track line is 0.0601 + J 0.1419 ohm/km (at 25kV system impedance). The OHE impedance values for conventional 25kV system are generally taken as under: Sl.No Description .
