  • A quick look into the main assets inside an electrical substation, including the Voltage Transformers (VTs) and Current Transformers (CTs), Disconnectors, Circuit Breakers, Relays and Transformers. Let's see how they work individually and as a team to perform the necessary functions of the substation.
    Substations are key to the operation of the power system. A new video on power system protection is coming soon....

      Great representation of the substation assets.
      There's a substation that interests me in Melbourne Australia
      called the Keilor Terminal Station.
      I don't know why these interest me but hey

    Thank you for these great presentations. I am new to relays and learning from guys who've been here for many years. I hear their words but have no idea what that piece of equipment looks like. I look at substation prints, and it all a foreign language. Your videos are a very necessary visual for me. You have really helped me put the pieces of the puzzle together. Thank you.

    Great explanation! I was hoping that you were going to explain reclosers. I would like to understand how the old oil filled mechanical ones could "count" the number of re-close attempts and vary the time all without stable power.

    • @user-sg5np3tb6c
      @user-sg5np3tb6c 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Power Circuit Reclosers (PCR) are smaller Power Circuit Breakers (PCB). Inside the breaker there is a mechanical counter in a open circuit that is connected to the trip recoiler. When the breaker opens. The open circuit is closed powering the counter to increase by one. It also sends to the information to the relay that controls the breaker. The old oil filled breakers function in a similar way.

    • @MisterKingBing
      @MisterKingBing 2 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Hi George. On those old oil filled reclosers, they use the oil in the recloser in a hydraulic circuit. Those reclosers trip by pulling a plunger into a coil/solenoid type setup. The coil size determines the trip amps of the recloser. When the coil has enough current running through it the plunger gets pulled down and into the coil. There is also a pump piston connected to a linkage connected to the plunger. That pump piston pumps oil though channels in the frame of the recloser mechanism. As this oil moves through the channels, it pushes up on a trip piston. That oil escapes back into the tank of the recloser through small orifices in the frame. When the recloser is operating on its fast operations, the oil escapes from two orifices. When the recloser is operating on its slow or delayed operations, the oil can only escape from one orifice as oil is constantly pushing up on the trip piston as it operates. The recloser trips and closes until enough oil has pushed up on the trip piston to make it bump a lever that will lock out the recloser and drops the yellow operating handle. That's it in a nutshell.

  • @riaang2002
    @riaang2002 ปีที่แล้ว

    Just a bit of nitpicking. Is the switch that you call a disconnector not just an isolator? Disconnectors are used to diconnect lines under load where as isolators are used to isolate under no load conditions.
