Introduction
This report is on the Minor Summer Industrial Training I received in the company L&T CONSTRUCTION, New Delhi, during dates 18/06/2012 to 18/07/2012. The Industrial Training in the company enabled me to widen my theoretical knowledge with the practical exposure. During my training I was associated with the Electrical Department of the company, under the Training in-charge Mr. B.K.Chopra. Basic objective of my training is to be familiar with, and to understand about how an industry works and to implement the theoretical knowledge I have received during our studies in college, in the practical field to serve the company. I was assigned a project by our training in-charge related to shifting, installing and testing of transformers at the site.

Organizational Information
L&T Construction PVT. LTD. is a separate division company of Larsen & Toubro (L&T) group, which itself is a technology, engineering, construction and manufacturing US$ 10.4 billion company. It is one of the largest and most respected companies in India's private sector. L&T was founded in Bombay (Mumbai) in 1938 by two Danish engineers, Henning Holck-Larsen and Soren Kristian Toubro. Together, they founded the partnership firm of L&T in 1938, which was converted into a limited company on February 7, 1946. Today, this has metamorphosed into one of India's biggest success stories. Larsen & Toubro (L&T) is Indias largest technology, engineering, manufacturing and construction organization with a record of over 70 years. Both of them were strongly committed to developing India's engineering capabilities to meet the demands of industry. Now Mr. A. M. Naik is the Executive Chairman & K. Venkataramanan is the Managing Director of Larsen & Toubro Limited. Today L&T Group has following worldwide Operating Divisions: Engineering & Construction Projects (E&C) Heavy Engineering (HED) Engineering Construction & Contracts (ECC) Electrical & Automation (EBG) Machinery & Industrial Products (MIPD) Information Technology & Engineering Services (InfoTech) Finance and Banking Solutions (BFS)

COMPANY OVERVIEW :
Engineering Construction and Contracts (ECC) Division (now L&T Construction) was conceived as Engineering Construction Corporation Limited in April 1944 and was incorporated as wholly owned subsidiary of Larsen & Toubro Limited. It has today emerged as India's leading construction organization.

ECC Engineering, Construction & Contracts Division of L&T is the major contributor of L&T's share market. Currently, it is also listed as Indias largest construction organization. L&T covers varied disciplines of constructioncivil, mechanical, electrical and instrumentation. The design wing of L&T ECC is called EDRC (Engineering Design and Research Centre). EDRC provides consultancy, design and total engineering solutions to customers. It carries out basic and detailed design for both residential and commercial projects. For the first quarter of FY 2012-13, L & T Construcion has bagged orders worth Rs 2410 crores. On 29 June 2012,the company revealed that it has bagged orders worth Rs 3042 crores, including Rs 2040 crore for upgrading of Delhi- Agra highway.

INDUSTRIAL ELECTRICIFICATION

L&T offers project electrification solutions covering plant electrification, instrumentation and extra high voltage cabling works for the whole gamut of core industries such as power, steel, metallurgical, glass, fertilizers, coal, mining, automobile, chemical and fertilizer plants, refinery, petrochemical and cement industries.

site.

Duration of the Project : Project Scope :

1) Preparation of site. 2) Arrangement of required equipments.
3)

Total 24 days.

Making of logistic plan.

4) Unloading and shifting of transformers. 5) Erection. 6) Testing. 7) Commisioning.

Methodology :
1) Installation
Logistic plan for unloading and shifting of transformer.

Logistic Plan :- The dry type transformer have to be shifted from L01
level to L00 level of the mall site and placed in position. No of Transformer 8

Capacity Weight Dimensions

2) Selection of shifting tools/Equipments

Hydraulic crane of capacity 40 ton to lift transformer from L01 level to L00 level. 2 chain pulley block- 5ton each to pull transformer at L00 level to the required position at same floor.

3) Testing Report
Following specific checking, maintenance guidelines as well as conducting routine inspections will help ensure the prolonged life and increased reliability of a drytype transformer. A valuable reference source for maintenance procedures is the ANSI/IEEE C57.94-1982 Standard, Recommended Practice for Installation, Application, Operation, and Maintenance of Dry-Type General Purpose Distribution and Power Transformers. Acceptance tests are those tests made at the time of installation of the unit or following a service interruption to demonstrate the serviceability of the transformer. This testing also applies to dry-type units. The acceptance tests should include: IR testing insulation PF measurement, turns ratio testing winding resistance measurements excitation current testing done.

A. IR TEST
The IR of each winding should be measured using a megohmmeter in accordance with Sections 10.9 through 10.9.4 of the ANSI/IEEE C57.12.911979 Standard, Test Code for Dry-Type Distribution and Power Transformers.

 The transformer should be deenergized and electrically isolated with all terminals of each winding shorted together. The windings not being tested should be grounded. The megohmmeter should be applied between each winding and ground (high voltage to ground and low voltage to ground) and between each set of windings (high voltage to low voltage). The megohm values along with the description of the instrument, voltage level, humidity, and temperature should be recorded for future reference. The minimum megohm value for a winding should be 200 times the rated voltage of the winding divided by 1000. For example, a winding rated at 13.2kV would have a minimum acceptable value of 2640 megohms ([13,200V x 200] / 1000). If previously recorded readings taken under similar conditions are more than 50% higher, you should have the transformer thoroughly inspected, with acceptance tests performed before reenergizing. B. VOLTAGE RATIO TESTING The transformer turn ratio is the number of turns in the high voltage winding divided by the number of turns in the low voltage winding. This ratio is also equal to the rated phase voltage of the high voltage winding being measured divided by the rated phase voltage of the low voltage winding being measured. ANSI/IEEE Standard C57.12.91 describes the performance and evaluation of these tests. The measured turns ratio should be within 0.5% of the calculated turns ratio. Ratios outside this limit may be the result of winding damage, which has shorted or opened some winding turns. C. EXCITATION CURRENT TEST The excitation current is the amperage drawn by each primary coil, with a voltage applied to the input terminals of the primary and the secondary or output terminals open-circuited. For this test, you should disconnect the transformer from all external circuit connections. The voltage should be applied to each phase in succession, with the applied voltage and current measured and recorded. If there is a defect in the winding, or in the magnetic circuit that is circulating a fault current, there will be a noticeable increase in the excitation current.

There is normally a difference between the excitation current in the primary coil on the center leg compared to that in the primary coils on the other legs. Variation in current versus prior readings should not exceed 5%. On any single test, the current and voltage readings of the primary windings for each of the phases should be within 15% of each other.

CONCLUSION
The opportunity to work at L&T CONSTRUCTION PVT. LTD. provided the chance to experience the variety of types of activities both in field and office and enabled me to get an exposure to industrial world. Many thanks are extended to LNTECC for allowing me to undertake my training with them and to use the details of my theoretical knowledge in practical field during my project work. The project of selecting the correct material for the correct purpose regarding to its physiochemical and mechanical properties and its effecting production cost estimation was the ideal job for an undergraduate mechanical engineering student. It is the task that opens the doors for progress in the next stage and which in turn is an area where many of my skills are utilized. The most significant part of my industrial training is that I was able to experience variety of works, all of which are typical of the job, I will be undertaking in my carrier. This project provided me a way to co-relate the knowledge of different subject which I gathered in my college studies and to implement the mixed up knowledge to tackle practical problems.
