5. TRANSFORMER
• A transformer is an electrical device that transfers electrical energy
between two or more circuits through electromagnetic induction. A
varying current in one coil of the transformer produces a varying
magnetic field, which in turn induces a voltage in a second coil.
Power can be transferred between the two coils through the
magnetic field, without a metallic connection between the two
circuits. Faraday's law of induction discovered in 1831 described this
effect. Transformers are used to increase or decrease the
alternating voltages in electric power applications.
➢ Eight Transformer are used in 220/132/33KV Bodhgaya GSS :
• 50 MVA Transformer(3):- incomer - 132 KV
:- outgoing - 33 KV
• 150 MVA Transformer(4):- incomer - 220 KV
:- outgoing - 132 KV
• 160 MVA Transformer(1):- incomer - 220 KV
:- outgoing - 132 KV

6. LIGHTNING ARRESTOR
• A lightning arrester is a device used
on electrical power systems
and telecommunications systems to protect
the insulation and conductors of the system
from the damaging effects of lightning.
• The typical lightning arrester has
a high-voltage terminal and a ground
terminal.
• When a lightning surge (or switching surge,
which is very similar) travels along the power
line to the arrester, the current from the surge
is diverted through the arrestor, in most cases
to earth.

7. CURRENT TRANSFORMER
• A current transformer (CT) is used for measurement of
alternating electric currents.
• When current in a circuit is too high to apply directly to
measuring instruments, a current transformer produces
a reduced current accurately proportional to the
current in the circuit, which can be conveniently
connected to measuring and recording instruments.
• A current transformer isolates the measuring instruments
from what may be very high voltage in the monitored
circuit.
• The primary circuit is largely unaffected by the insertion
of the CT. The rated secondary current is commonly
standardized at 1 or 5 amperes. For example, a 4000:5
CT secondary winding will supply an output current of 5
amperes when the primary winding current is 4000
amperes.

8. POTENTIAL TRANSFORMER
• Potential transformers (PT) (also called voltage
transformers (VT)) are a parallel connected type of
instrument transformer.
• They are designed to present negligible load to the
supply being measured and have an accurate voltage
ratio and phase relationship to enable accurate
secondary connected metering.
• The PT is typically described by its voltage ratio from
primary to secondary. Standard secondary voltage
ratings are 120 volts and 70 volts, compatible with
standard measuring instruments.
• For example, a 600:120 PT would provide an output
voltage of 120 volts when 600 volts are impressed
across its primary winding.

9. CIRCUIT BREAKER
• A circuit breaker is an automatically operated electrical switch designed to protect
an electrical circuit from damage caused by overload or short circuit. Its basic
function is to detect a fault condition and interrupt current flow.
• Unlike a fuse, which operates once and then must be replaced, a circuit breaker can
be reset (either manually or automatically) to resume normal operation.
• A circuit breaker essentially consists of fixed and moving contacts. These contacts
can be opened manually or by remote control whenever desired. When a fault
occurs on any part of the system, the trip coils of breaker get energized and the
moving contacts are pulled apart by some mechanism, thus opening the circuit.
• When contacts of a circuit breaker are separated, an arc is struck; the current is thus
able to continue. The production of arcs are not only delays the current interruption,
but is also generates the heat. Therefore, the main problem is to distinguish the arc
within the shortest possible time so that it may not reach a dangerous value.

10. • According to their arc quenching media the circuit
breaker can be divided as-
1. Oil circuit breaker
2. Air circuit breaker
3. SF6
circuit breaker
4. Vacuum circuit breaker
Oil circuit breaker
In oil circuit breaker the fixed contact and moving contact
are immerged inside the insulating oil. Whenever there is a
separation of electric current carrying contacts in the oil,
the arc in circuit breaker is initialized at the moment of
separation of contacts, and due to this arc the oil is
vaporized and decomposed in mostly hydrogen gas and
ultimately creates a hydrogen bubble around the arc. This
highly compressed gas bubble around the arc prevents
re-striking of the arc after electric current reaches zero
crossing of the cycle.

11. Air circuit breaker
For interrupting arc it creates an arc voltage in
excess of the supply voltage. Arc voltage is
defined as the minimum voltage required
maintaining the arc. This circuit breaker increases
the arc voltage by mainly three different ways:
• It may increase the arc voltage by cooling the arc
plasma. As the temperature of arc plasma is
decreased, the mobility of the particle in arc
plasma is reduced, hence more voltage gradient
is required to maintain the arc.
• It may increase the arc voltage by lengthening
the arc path. As the length of arc path is
increased, the resistance of the path is increased,
and hence to maintain the same arc electric
current more voltage is required to be applied
across the arc path. That means arc voltage is
increased.
• Splitting up the arc into a number of series arcs
also increases the arc voltage.

12. SF6
circuit breaker
• In such circuit breaker, sulphur hexafluoride (SF6
)
gas is used as the arc quenching medium. The
SF6 is
an electronegative gas and has a strong
tendency to absorb free electrons.
• It consists of fixed and moving contacts. It has
chamber, contains SF6
gas. When the contacts
are opened, the mechanism permits a high
pressure SF6
gas from reservoir to flow towards
the arc interruption chamber. The moving
contact permits the SF6
gas to let through these
holes.
• These circuit breakers are available for
the voltage ranges from 33KV to 800KV and
even more.
132KV SF6 CB

13. Vacuum circuit breaker
• Vacuum circuit breakers are circuit breakers which are used to protect
medium and high voltage circuits from dangerous electrical situations. Like
other types of circuit breakers, vacuum circuit breakers literally break the
circuit so that energy cannot continue flowing through it, thereby
preventing fires, power surges, and other problems which may emerge.
• The operation of opening and closing of electric current carrying contacts
and associated arc interruption take place in a vacuum chamber in the
breaker which is called vacuum interrupter.

14. ISOLATOR
• It is an off-load device.
• It disconnects or isolates the circuit from the main power supply.
• Even though, isolators is a switch, it is not used as a normal on off
switch.
• It is used only when the electrical system has to be disconnected
from the main supply, to perform maintenance or related activities,
which involve direct contact with the current carrying components
of machinery.
• Isolators may provide additional safety features like, when switched
off the trapped charge will be ground through a ground terminal in
the isolator.
• Isolators are normally placed after the circuit breaker allowing the
internal circuit to be disconnected from the main supply without
affecting the breaker.

15. CAPACITOR BANK
• The load on the power system is varying being high during
morning and low in evening which increases the load
current. This result in the decreased power factor.
• The low power factor is mainly due to the fact most of the
power loads are inductive and therefore take lagging
currents.
• In order to ensure most favorable conditions for a supply
system from engineering and economic stand point it is
important to have power factor as close to unity as
possible.
• In order to improve the power factor come device taking
leading power should be connected in parallel with the
load. One of the device can be capacitor bank.
• The capacitor draws a leading current and partly or
completely neutralize the lagging reactive component of
load current.
Capacitor bank accomplishes following operations:
• Supply reactive power
• Increases terminal voltage
• Improve power factor

16. • FUSE
A fuse is a short piece of wire or thin strip which melts when
excessive current through it for sufficient time. It is inserted in series
with the circuit under normal operating conditions; the fuse
element is at a nature below its melting point. Therefore it carries
the normal load current overheating. It is worthwhile to note that
a fuse performs both detection and interruption functions.
• BUS COUPLER
The bus coupler consists of circuit breaker and isolator. Each
generator and feeder may be connected to either main bus bar
or spar bus bar with the help of bus coupler. Repairing,
maintenance and testing of feeder circuit or other section can
be done by putting them on spar bus bar, thus keeping the main
bus bar undisturbed. Bus coupler is a device which is used switch
from one bus to the other without any interruption in power
supply and without creating hazardous arcs. It is achieved with
the help of circuit breaker and isolators.

17. RELAY
• When a failure occurs on any part of the system, it must be quickly
detected and disconnected from the system.
• Rapid disconnection of faulted apparatus limits the amount of
damage to it and prevents the effects of fault from spreading into
the system.
• For high voltage circuits relays are employed to serve the desired
function of automatic protective gear. The relays detect the fault
and supply the information to the circuit breaker.
• When a short circuit occurs at any point on the transmission line the
current flowing in the line increases to the enormous value. This
result in a heavy current flow through the relay coil, causing the
relay to operate by closing its contacts. This in turn closes the trip
circuit of the breaker making the circuit breaker open and isolating
the faulty section from the rest of the system.

18. Relays used in control panel of the substation:
• Differential Relay
A differential relay is one that operates when vector difference of
the two or more electrical quantities exceeds a predetermined
value. If this differential quantity is equal or greater than the pickup
value, the relay will operate and open the circuit breaker to isolate
the faulty section.
• Overcurrent Relay
This type of relay works when current in the circuit exceeds the
predetermined value. The actuating source is the current in the
circuit supplied to the relay from a current transformer. These relay
are used on A.C. circuit only and can operate for fault flow in the
either direction. This relay operates when phase to phase fault
occurs.

19. • Directional Relay
This relay operates during earth faults. If one phase
touch the earth due to any fault. A directional power
relay is so designed that it obtains its operating
torque by the interaction of magnetic field derived
from both voltage and current source of the circuit it
protects. The direction of torque depends upon the
current relative to voltage.
• Tripping Relay
This type of relay is in the conjunction with main relay.
When main relay sense any fault in the system, it
immediately operates the trip relay to disconnect the
faulty section from the section.
• Auxiliary Relay
An auxiliary relay is used to indicate the fault by
glowing bulb alert the employee.

20. CONCLUSION
• We can conclude that electricity plays an important role in our life. We are
made aware of how the transmission of electricity is done. We too came to
know about the various parts of the Substation system.
• The Bihar state power transmission company Ltd. has got radio
communication in microwave range in order to transmit and receive data
with various Substations in Bihar state to get reliable transmission and
distribution of electricity.
