INTRODUCTION OF
SUBSTATION
It is situated at 26°34’2’’N & 80°32’57’’E coordinates
in Dahi Chowki 6.64 km far from Unnao railway station.
Constructed during 1994-98 by CGL.
The whole substation is divided in three parts:
132kv switchyard
400/220kv switchyard
765kv switchyard (Under construction)

BUCHHOLZ RELAY
Buchholz relay is a safety device mounted on some oil-filled power
transformers and reactors. It is used as a protective device sensitive to
the effects of dielectric failure inside the equipment.

CIRCUIT BREAKER
A circuit breakeris an
automatically-operated
electrical switch
designed to protect an
electrical circuit from
damage caused by
overload or short circuit.
In this image we can
see a SF6 circuit breaker
with double break
system.

ISOLATORS
An isolators switch are
used to completely de-
energized an electrical
circuit. High-voltage
isolation switches are used
in electrical substations to
allow isolation of apparatus
such as circuit breakers and
transformers, and
transmission lines, for
maintenance.

Wave trap
Wave trap are used in
power system for carrier
communication.
It trap the higher
frequency above 50Hz.
It is the effort to utilize
the same transmission line
between two substation for
the purpose of
communications
22
23
LIGHTNING ARRESTOR
The overvoltage protection
is obtained by the use of
lightning / surge arresters.
Lightning Arresters or
Surge Arresters are always
connected in Shunt to the
equipment to be protected,
they provide a low
impedance path for the
surge current to the ground.
Mostly in present days
zinc oxide (ZnO) gapless
arresters are in use.
24
INTERPOSING C.T.
The interposing CTs are used
for Power transformer
Differential Protection
circuit. In a delta/Star Power
transformer, the cts will be
connected star and delta
formation, for eliminating
Zero sequence current on star
side. There will be mismatch
of secondary current , to
maintain equilibrium,
interposing Cts will be
connected to Delta formed
CTs.

SHUNT REACTOR
Shunt Reactor is a thyristor controlled high impedance
transformer.
A stable bus
voltage can be
maintained by
providing
variable reactive
power based on
the bus voltage
deviations due
to the load
variations.

SHUNT CAPACITOR
BANK
Shunt capacitor banks
are used to improve the
quality of the electrical
supply.
provide capacitive
reactive compensation.
