cant believe you terminating a CHP engine. Are you at a energy facility, biogas farm, sewage plant or just energy recovery. Mate I'm in the process of doing a gas or steam fired CHP using a lorry engine to power my farm, warehouse and factory plus a bio digester to make more gas. I love this wish you took more moving pics of inside engine and generator type maybe control board, Please do a longer one if you are still on site mate. Awesome amazing job
Just wondering with this high voltage works that you often do is it often high current or is the cable simply very big because it runs along distant at high voltage as it seems kind of counterintuitive to use a very big cable whilst being high voltage or is it all about voltage drop?
It’s a 185mm conductor but it’s made of aluminium . The copper equivalent would be roughly half the size . At this voltage a 2MVA transformer only needs around 100 amps per phase on the primary side to output 2000 amps on the secondary side. To conclude 185mm aluminium isn’t very big …
Thought these were gas turbines but are just 4-stroke gas bangers. Far from efficient these turds, diesel wins every time but I spose, grid supplimenting and gas is all that is there. Single turbine would hand them a new cake-hole. Sorry but video was boring a bat-s###, was exptecting more.
@@hvsparky All good buddy, you had way more patients for those way over-complicated terminations than I did back in my day but then again, we were dealling with LV, not HV (well, we topped out at 1,100VAC). When you get a look at a Gas Turbine in operation, you will have a huge learning expirience.
Top tier terminations 💪🏽
Nice and straight forward to do! ☺

What is that outer bit of copper wire for is that a ground?
The screen wires disperse the circulating currents of the HV cable 👍🏻👍🏻
Probably stupid question but what is the copper armour for , bonding? I presume 3 phase 11kv delta
Hi mate, no it isn’t a stupid question, basically the screen wires disperse the circulating currents of the HV cable.

Im not the person that designs what cable goes in where, but usually to do with loading in terms of what size cable goes in.

Where’s your earth sleeving 😂
The 3mm on the van won’t fit 🥴😂

Sorry Benny, i don't know a lot about gas generators, or diesel. I'll make sure my next video aint like bat s##t 😱

These aren’t meant to be efficient, but they’re meant to be quite cost-effective and quite instantaneous for power so it’s worth it then sometimes
