      • Voltage check and syncrocheck (25)
    • 33 kV bays
      • Overcurrent protection (50/51)
      • Breaker failure protection (50BF)
    • 33 kV and 66 kV Busbar
      • High impedance differential protection (87H) for busbar
    • Auxiliary transformer 33/0,4 kV
      • Overcurrent protection (50/51)

 

Description of Activity

ENGIPROT work team was responsible for study the substation equipment for proper protection and selectivity coordination, including the existing bays.
