The turbine protection system can be

actuated by any of the following trip systems :

-- Hydraulic trip system
-- Electrical trip system
Both the trip systems, when initiated, act on
the hydraulic control system and cause trip oil
pressure to collapse which in turn closes the
Emergency stop valves, Interceptor valves
and control valves.

-- Overspeed trip device 1

-- Overspeed trip device 2
-- Vacuum trip device
--- Thrust Bearing trip device
-- Hand trip lever 1 (local)
-- Hand trip lever 2 (local)

TURBINE PROTECTIONS
Two trip solenoids are provided in the hydraulic

circuit, which get trip signals from the electrical

system. Actuation of any one solenoid is sufficient
to trip the turbine.
The electrical system is configured as a 2-channel
system. Each channel is realized in a Processing
Unit
Both the processor units are completely
independent of each other and input modules,
processor module and output modules reside on
each.

TURBINE PROTECTIONS
Each channel having two processors Unit
with one processor in hot standby mode .
Realisation of 2 out of 3 trip logic is carried
out in the processor.
Both the channels are tested periodically even
while the turbine is running. Cyclic testing is
done automatically at preset intervals

CONDENSER PRESSURE
PROTECTION

Two types of condenser pressure protection ,

one with fixed set point (FSP) and one with
variable set point (VSP), are provided.
The task of condenser pressure protection is
to protect the condenser against a non
permissible pressure increase and the
deterioration of vacuum.
Trip circuit is enabled only, if the turbine
speed is more than 240 RPM.

FIRE PROTECTION:
Fire protection switch either in control room or
in machine hall operated.
Level in main oil tank falls to a very low value
indicating substantial leakage of oil from the
system.
HP EXHAUST TEMP HIGH
During startup/shutdown or load rejections, steam
turbines are operated at very low volumetric
flows. Energy transmitted by the turbine shaft is
converted to thermal energy, which in turn result
in an increase in the temp.of both the exhaust
steam and turbine components.

AXIAL SHIFT VERY HIGH

A too high axial displacement of the turbine shaft
may cause damage to the turbine blades. The
axial shift is measured in both directions ()
using three proximity probes.
HPT/IPT TOP BOTTOM TEMP HIGH
Excessive large temp. differentials within turbine
components cause heat stresses. The temp.
differential between upper & lower parts of the
turbine casing (HP and IP sections) is a measure
of casing distortion.

ISOLATION OF GENERATOR FROM GRID

Turbine has tripped and reverse power relay
has operated. The command signal shall be
initiated with a delay of 3 Seconds
Reverse power relay has operated. The
command signal shall be initiated with a time
delay of 10 seconds.
