The MEGATROL device The MEGATROL is a combined system, containing a static excitation system (SES) and a static starting device (SSD). The medium voltage breaker is able to interrupt the supply voltage. The SSD (Static Starter Device) The static startic device is a frequency controlled current-source, which can be used to start a synchronous generator as motor. The SES (Static Excitation System) The static excitation system regulates the terminal voltage and the reactive power flow of the synchronous machine by direct control of the field current using converters. For a so-called shunt or self-excitation, the excitation power is taken from the machines terminals. The field current of the synchronous machine flows through the excitation transformer, the field circuit breaker and the power converter. The excitation transformer reduces the generator terminal voltage to the required input voltage of the converter, provides the galvanic separation between the machine terminals and the field winding and acts at the same time as the commutating reactance for the converter. The power converter converts the AC current into a controlled DC current. At the beginning of the start sequence, the field flashing energy is taken from the auxiliary supply. As soon as the input of the converter reaches 10 to 20 V, the converter and the control electronics are ready for operation and the start-up energy is now derived from the generator terminals.
3BHS246546 E80 Rev.-

ABB
After synchronizing with the network, the excitation system can operate in AVR mode, regulating the generator terminal voltage and reactive power flow. It can also operate in one of the superimposed control modes, i.e. the machines Cos-phi control or MVAr (reactive power) control. In addition, it can be included in an overall joint voltage and reactive control of the power plant. The purpose of the field suppression equipment is to disconnect the excitation system from the field winding and to discharge its energy as fast as possible. The field suppression circuit basically consists of the field circuit breaker, the field suppression resistor and the Crowbar thyristors with their associated triggering electronics. The field circuit breaker is connected to the DC side of the power converter. The MVB (Medium Voltage Breaker) The medium voltage breaker is a SF6 breaker which operates at medium voltage level and can interrupt short circuit currents upto 50kA.

Description of the Control Functions

ON/OFF Commands
In this section the different LCT commands and their effect on both the excitation system and the generator are described briefly.
AUX ON/OFF
The ON command starts the fans of the Converter and the fans of the DC-Reactor. The ON command closes the preselected medium voltage breaker and measures the actual lineside voltage. If the voltage is present and the fans not already running, they are automatically started.
MVB ON/OFF
Operation ON/OFF
The ON command enables the firing of the thyristor-pulses on the starter and allows to start a startup procedure. The OFF command initiate a slow shut-down of the system.
Emergency OFF
The Emergency stop is a short shut-down sequence. The fans of the Converter and the DC-Reactor are also switched off. In case of a trip (e.g. by the generator protection), the starter is automatically switched off and the medium voltage breaker is opened. Further procedure: After the starter has been switched off due to a trip, the event messages must be checked on the LCT. The disturbance has to be eliminated by authorized personnel.

Switch-on Sequence
Proceed as follows: 8 To close the field circuit breaker (FCB), use the command FCB On (See in Figure 8-1). The FCB is switched on. 9 Check that no event, alarm or inactive channel alarm is active.
Fault: Alarm: StbyAlarm: Indication on ECT status bar: AUX: On
10 If the excitation system is supplied directly from the generator terminals through the excitation transformer, check that the auxiliary voltage is present. 11 Check that the rotation speed of the turbine is above 90% of the nominal speed. 12 To switch on the excitation system, use the command EXC On (See in Figure 13-1). The voltage builds up within 5 to 20 s. The generator runs without load. NOTICE! The field flashing circuit may only be activated for 1 minute per hour. After 4 consecutive unsuccessful attempts (5 s each), wait for at least one hour before attempting field flashing again.
EXC: On
13 Adjust the generator voltage by means of the raise/ lower commands to the voltage setpoint (see in Figure 13-1) until it matches the network voltage. The excitation system is now ready for operation under load.

External Trip
Events in a number of peripheral devices can, in certain cases, cause a situation where neither remote nor local control of the excitation system is possible. In such situations, it must still be possible to switch off the excitation in an emergency. An Emergency OFF signal "External Trip" can be given out to the input terminal (See also Appendix - Electrical Drawings). An Emergency OFF signal switches off the generator and the excitation system. The supply voltages to the excitation system are not switched off. It is essential that the operator knows how to carry out the emergency shutdown.
13-6
3BHS246546 E80 Rev.-
ABB
NOTICE!
With the generator circuit breaker closed, the excitation system cannot be switched off (by remote control), before the generator circuit breaker has opened. The Emergency OFF procedure should only be used if it is not possible to switch off the system by means of the normal OFF command.
13.3.6.
Alarm and Event/Trip

As soon as an event occurs, an error code is generated. The event logger provides a dynamic list of the actual events and an event log table with the corresponding time stamp. Touch the information button or double-click the event to get the information including troubleshooting instructions. Do not forget to save the recorded event log table (see Chapter 13.8.7 - Event Logger). If an event occurs during operation, the system can normally continue operation. Automatic shutdown takes place if the event is a trip. CAUTION! The event logger provides important information on the excitation system. Cleared data complicate the diagnostics for maintenance or troubleshooting. It is not allowed to clear the event logs before the event log table is saved. (refer to Chapter 13.8.7 - Event Logger)

Description of the Control Functions

ON/OFF Commands
In this section the different ECT commands and their effect on both the excitation system and the generator are described briefly.
Field Circuit Breaker ON/OFF
The ON command closes the field circuit breaker, as long as no trip signal is active. The field circuit breaker can only be opened if the generator circuit breaker is already open and the excitation switched off (generator is in no-load condition).
Excitation ON/OFF (Start, Stop)
The command EXC ON is used to initiate the excitation of the generator. The excitation feeds the generator rotor with field current so that the generator voltage rapidly builds up to nominal voltage. The ON command is non-effective as long as a trip command is active. The excitation cannot be switched ON before the field circuit breaker is closed. A typical Start/Stop sequence for generators is shown in Figure 13-1 and Figure 13-2. The command EXC OFF can only be carried out if the generator circuit breaker is already open (generator is in no-load condition). The firing angle of the converter is thereby shifted to inverter mode (for field energy feedback) and the discharge resistor is switched in parallel to the rotor winding, so that the generator can be quickly discharged through the converter and the discharge resistor. After 60 s, the firing pulses to the converter are blocked so that the converter is completely switched off.
Reactive Power/ Power Factor Regulator ON/OFF
If the generator is connected to the network and the AUTO mode is in operation, the chosen superimposed regulator can be switched ON. Both regulators are superimposed to the voltage regulator, but react slowly to changes in the operating conditions. Short-term network disturbances therefore do not influence these superimposed regulators. They are absorbed by the voltage regulator. All limiters of the AUTO mode are enabled and, if necessary, have impact on the voltage regulator output including the superimposed components. For further details refer to Chapter 13.4.2 - Operation Modes and Setpoint Adjustment.

Figure 13-3 Q-/PF-Regulators The reactive power regulator and the power factor regulator (Cos ) have their own setpoint (setpoint integrator). If the superimposed regulators are switched off, the setpoint always follows the actual value. Therefore the operating point of the generator will remain unchanged in case of a transition from the automatic voltage regulator to the superimposed regulator. Power System Stabilizer ON/OFF Low-frequency oscillations of the generator magnet wheel and/or the network frequency can be damped by means of the power system stabilizer (PSS). The PSS is enabled as soon as the generators active power reaches a certain adjustable value and the generator voltage is within an adjustable range (e.g. 90 to 110% UGN). The power system stabilization does not require any settings done by the operating personnel. The PSS can always be switched off manually and is switched off automatically if the generators active power and voltage are out of the selected ranges or if the generator is no longer connected to the network. Switching OFF due to an Event/Trip In case of a trip (e.g. by the generator protection), the excitation system is automatically switched off and the field circuit breaker is opened. Further procedure: After the excitation has been switched off due to a trip, the event messages must be checked on the ECT. The disturbance has to be eliminated by authorized personnel. Further advice for troubleshooting is given in Chapter 15 - Troubleshooting.
3BHS246546 E80 Rev.-

ABB
Setpoint adjustment is done by means of raise/lower commands, which are located in the lower right corner on the ECT (see Figure 13-13). Feedback indications MIN/MAX appear if the setpoint limit has been reached. The type of setpoint depends on the selected operation mode.
13.4.2.
Operation Modes and Setpoint Adjustment
in AUTO Mode
In AUTO mode, the setpoint of the generator voltage is adjusted by means of the raise / lower commands. In no-load operation, changing this setpoint adjusts the generator voltage, in operation under load, this adjusts the reactive power. If the operating limit of the rotor and/or generator stator is exceeded, limiting regulators will inhibit further changes of the raise / lower commands. If the generator voltage setpoint reaches its minimum or maximum, the message "Active regulator MIN-POS/MAX-POS" will appear. If the raise/ lower keys are pressed together, no adjustment of the setpoint will take place. When the excitation system is switched on, the generator voltage setpoint will automatically be set to the nominal value.
in MANUAL Mode
The MANUAL mode is not active in normal operation. A changeover to MANUAL mode will only take place if the generator voltage measurement is lost. In MANUAL mode, the setpoint of the field current is adjusted by means of the raise/lower commands. In no-load operation, changing this setpoint adjusts the generator voltage; in operation under load, this adjusts the reactive power. In MANUAL mode, only a PQ-Restrictor for underexcitation (to prevent generator slipping) and a V/Hz-Restrictor (to prevent magnetic saturation) are available. Unlike for AUTO mode, the setpoint is not limited in case an operating limit of the rotor and/or generator stator is exceeded. Therefore it must be ensured that these operating limits (according to the power diagram) are never exceeded. If the field current setpoint reaches its minimum or maximum, the message "Active regulator MIN-POS/MAX-POS" appears. If the raise/ lower keys are pressed together, no adjustment of the setpoint will take place. When the excitation system is switched on and when the generator circuit breaker opens, the field current setpoint is automatically set to the no-load field current value.
13-10
3BHS246546 E80 Rev.-
ABB
in Reactive Power/ Power Factor Regulator Mode
The slow reaction of the superimposed Q-/PF-Regulator must be considered when adjusting the setpoint. Otherwise the system could reach an unintended operating condition due to the regulator lagging. If the reactive power/power factor setpoint reaches its minimum or maximum, the message "Active regulator MIN-POS/MAX-POS" will appear. In order to gain better control over this setpoint adjustment, the setpoint integrator of this regulator can be integrated in the control system of the control room. The output of the setpoint integrator is then supplied directly to the excitation system as a remote setpoint for the reactive power regulator/power factor regulator (e.g. as 4 to 20 mA signal). If the remote setpoint reaches the internal minimum or maximum, it has no effect beyond these internal limits and the message "Active regulator MIN-POS/MAX-POS" appears (see Figure 13-4).

Applies to dual channel systems only This excitation system features two fully independent control channels, channel 1 (CH1) and channel 2 (CH2). Both channels are equivalent, so that either channel can be freely selected as the active one. The remaining backup (or inactive) channel is continuously and automatically updated to match the active channel. The changeover from the active to the backup channel does not change the regulation mode.

Figure 13-5 Changeover with Dual Channel System Figure 13-6 CH1 to CH2 Changeover States Basically, a channel changeover can be carried out at any time, except in the following situations: If an event is detected in the active channel that requires channel changeover, an emergency changeover to the second channel will take place automatically. It is not possible to switch back to the defective channel until the reason for the event has been eliminated. A manual changeover from the active to the inactive channel is not possible if the inactive channel is defective.
If an event causes a channel changeover, a dynamic disturbance in the generator voltage can occur simultaneously. However, the inactive channel (to which changeover automatically takes place at this instant) should not follow this dynamic disturbance in the generator voltage. In
13-12
3BHS246546 E80 Rev.-

order to achieve this, the inactive channel always follows up with the actual generator voltage relatively slowly and with a delay. This relatively slow follow-up of the inactive channel must be taken into account in case of a manual changeover from the active to the inactive channel: immediately after a change in the generator voltage the changeover is delayed for a short time. In this way, a bumpless changeover is always achieved.
Changeover from AUTO to MANUAL Mode
Each channel features an automatic voltage regulation (AUTO) mode and a field current regulation (MANUAL) mode. In AUTO mode, the generator voltage is regulated in a way that the voltage produced at the generator terminals is as constant as possible. On the contrary, in MANUAL mode, the field current is kept constant. In case of a fluctuating generator load, the field current setpoint must be manually followed up to keep the generator voltage constant.

Figure 13-7 Changeover from AUTO to MANUAL Mode Figure 13-8 AUTO to MANUAL Changeover States Basically, it is possible to switch between operating modes at any time, because there is always an automatic follow-up control from the active to the inactive regulator. The following should be taken into account: If an event that requires channel changeover is detected in AUTO mode, an emergency changeover to MANUAL mode will take place automatically. It is not possible to switch back to the defective channel until the reason of the event has been eliminated. There will be no changeover from AUTO to MANUAL mode if there is a disturbance in the field current regulator.
3BHS246546 E80 Rev.-
13-13
ABB
The generator can operate in AUTO mode within extreme yet permitted operating ranges, which lie outside of the permitted (and set) operating ranges for MANUAL mode. In these cases, the field current regulator can no longer follow up with the automatic voltage regulator. The feedback indication "CH XFER" (Channel balanced or Ready on the Status bar of the ECT) allows checking the follow-up of the field current regulator.
If an event causes an automatic changeover to MANUAL mode, the setpoint prior to the event is maintained. For this purpose, the follow-up control of the field current regulator reacts with a delay and relatively slowly to changes in the field current. This relatively slow follow-up behavior of the field current regulator must be taken into account for a manual changeover from AUTO to MANUAL mode. The behavior is comparable to a changeover from CH1 to CH2. NOTICE! The MANUAL mode is designed as field current regulation (no regulation of the generator voltage). Therefore, in MANUAL mode it is necessary that the operating personnel expertly monitor the excitation of the generator. As long as the generator current and voltage transformer signals are present, an underexcitation limiter also prevents a dangerous underexcitation of the machine in MANUAL mode, which in extreme cases could lead to slipping. In addition, in no-load operation with reduced rotational speed, a V/Hz restrictor reduces the excitation to prevent oversaturation of the machine and the connected transformers. The operating variables such as generator voltage, generator current and reactive power must be monitored by the operating personnel and if necessary adjusted by changing the field current setpoint.
Backup Field Current Regulator in Operation
The excitation system contains an additional independent backup field current regulator with its own gate controller. In case of a failure of both regular channels (AUTO and MANUAL mode), control is automatically switched over to the backup channel. This backup channel has limited functions: It only provides field current regulation (MANUAL mode) and contains an excitation transformer overcurrent monitor. Therefore, the operation with the backup channel is only a temporary emergency situation. If the backup channel is activated, the excitation system should be switched off in an orderly manner and the failures repaired (see Chapter 13.3.4 - Shut-down Sequence).

A smooth changeover from AUTO to MANUAL mode will only be guaranteed if the feedback indication appears. This status message means that the system cannot be operated by remote control. Remedy: Changeover to remote control.
Local Control
Under-/Overexcitation limiter
Either an overexcitation or underexcitation limiter is now active. The former reduces the field current, whereas the latter increases the field current. The generator voltage regulator or superimposed regulator (if switched on) is no longer effective. Operation with continuous limitation is permitted. However, this generally impairs the dynamic behavior of the excitation system in case of load changes. Remedy: If possible, deactivate limiter by adjusting the setpoint.
Common Event
The common event is a collective signal for all alarms/events in the excitation system. Detailed information can be viewed on the remote or local ECT of the excitation system. In case of an alarm, the maintenance personnel must be notified. The system continues normal operation. But, in case of a fault, automatic shutdown takes place. However, the system must not be started up after a shutdown until all causes of alarms/events have been eliminated and the corresponding messages have disappeared.

Figure 13-13 Excitation Control Terminal (Typical layout after start-up) The ECT is used to control and monitor the excitation system. The ECT can be installed as a door panel at the excitation system for local control and/or in the control room for remote control purposes. The ECT is a powerful industrial PC with a user friendly Human Machine Interface that runs independently of the control CPUs. The TFT touch screen provides a range of selectable screens showing information about the actual status of the system in graphical and numerical form. In addition, authorized personnel can view and adjust all parameter values. Analyzing tools for troubleshooting are also available. Important data is
