Bus bars are Cu/Al rods of thin walled tubes and operate at constant voltage. The bus
bars are designed
to carry normal current continuously. The cross section of conductors is designed on th
e basis of rated normal
current and the following factors: System voltage, position of sub
st
ation. Flexibility, reliability
of supply and
cost.
Our design must ensure easy and uninterrupted maintenance, avoiding any danger to the operating of
operating p
ersonnel. It must be simple in design and must possess provision for future extension. Any
fluctuation of load must not hinder its mechanical characters. The sub
station bus bars are broadly classified in
the following three categories:
1.3
Outdoor rigid tubul
ar bus
bars.
1.4
Outdoor flexible ACSR or Al alloy bus
bars.
1.5
Indoor bus bars.
In our substation, we have chosen ONE MAIN BUS AND ONE TRANSFER BUS system. The buses are
coupled using a bus
coupler which facilitates load transfer while maintenance and fault cond
itions.
Load catered = 200 MW
Voltage = 132 KV
Rated current is taken to be I ampere, we get
P = 3 VI cos
We take power factor as 0.9
= 971.97 ampere
Going by the rated current that is required to be catered and keeping in mind the future provision of
load we chose twin moose conductor for the purp
ose of main bus and normal single moose and normal moose
for transfer bus
The Main Criterias To be Considered During Selection of one Particular Bus Bar Arrangement
Scheme Among Others
(i) Simplicity of system. (ii) Easy maintenance of different equipments. (iii) Minimizing the outage during
maintenance. (iv) Future provision of extension with growth of demand. (v) Optimizing the selection of bus
bar arrangement scheme so that it gives maximum return from the system. Some very commonly used
bus bar arrangement are discussed belowSingle Bus System
Single Bus System is simplest and cheapest one. In this scheme all the feeders and transformer bay are
connected to only one single bus as show.
Advantages of Single Bus System
1) This is very simple in design. 2) This is very cost effective scheme. 3) This is very convenient to
operate.
Disadvantages of Single Bus System
he or she opens the breaker and then isolators associated with the bus from where feeder is transferred.
(v) Now if main breaker of the feeder is switched off, total power flow will instantaneously shift to the bus
coupler breaker and hence this breaker will serve the purpose of protection for the feeder.
(vi) At last the operating personnel open the isolators at both sides of the main circuit breaker to make it
isolated from rest of the live system. So it can be concluded that in Main & Transfer Bus System the
maintenance of circuit breaker is possible without any interruption of power. Because of this advantage
the scheme is very popular for 33KV and 13KV system.
