system paralysis under any operational eventuality. Redundancy shall be
provided at appropriate levels for critical control system functions.

2.04.00 In the event of loss of a major plant item, activities of binary and analog
controls shall be coordinated to ensure that the plant is automatically brought
to a safe holding condition consistent with maintaining maximum generation
permissible under reduced plant availability.
2.05.00 The C & I System shall be configured to perform the following basic functions:
-

a) Automatic sequencing of the start-up and shutdown of major
equipment and auxiliaries including group/plant level start-
up to minimize operators intervention under normal
operating conditions.
b) Regulation functions for various valves and dampers to
achieve guaranteed performance and to achieve the most
fuel-efficient operation.
c) Protection of plant equipment and monitoring of equipment
life.

d) Acquisition, display and archiving of plant data and
generation of reports.
2.06.00 The entire operation of the air cooled condenser system will be through DCS
from central control room.

Sequence control of ACC fan will be implemented in DCS. Bidder to optimise
the % of VFD fans required for operation of the power plant meeting design
performance and without under cooling for complete year operation at various
temperatures. This system shall enable the operator for cold/warm/hot start-
up and safe shutdown and carryout normal operation from control room.

Hotwell control & CEP minimum recirculation control will be implemented in
DCS by CWPC.

The signals required for operation of ACC fans and associated valves will be
cabled to DCS.

proven product range of qualified manufacturers. All materials and equipment
furnished for permanent installation shall conform to applicable local and
international codes and standards Specifications and shall be new, unused
and undamaged.

3.02.00 The equipment and systems shall be designed and constructed to meet
specification requirements, and shall perform accurately and safety under the
environmental and operating conditions described or implied in this
specification without undue heating, vibration, wear, corrosion or other
operating troubles during the continuous service life of the plant. It will be the
responsibility of bidder to fully acquaint himself with the functional
requirements and operating conditions for equipment, system/sub-system/
assemblies and accessories offered for this project. Additional features shall
be provided where required to meet service conditions, functional/descriptive
or parametric requirements for equipments/systems/assemblies/ accessories.

3.03.00 The design of the Control & Instrumentation system shall be such that
isolation of any piece of defective equipment/accessories should be possible
without shutting down the main equipment and should result in minimum
disturbance to the process.

3.04.00 The design of control systems and related equipment shall adhere to the
principle of fail safe operation at all system levels. Fail-safe Operation
means that loss of signal, loss of power supply/air supply or failure of any
component shall not cause a hazardous condition while at the same time
prevent occurrence of false trips.
