DANGER
Electrical hazard!
Turbine de-energized state:
WTG with the external unit transformer (PMT):
De-energized state means the turbine is isolated from any potential energy
source by one of the following means in order of preference:
1. Unit transformer (PMT) high or low side is not terminated and
terminations controlled with LOTO. Temporary generator is not
connected to the DTA and stored energy devices (UPS, capacitors etc.) are
isolated/discharged/verified zero voltage.
2. Unit transformer (PMT) oil switch/vacuum circuit breaker is open, verified,

lock applied to prevent oil switch/vacuum circuit breaker closure and
safety grounds attached. Temporary generator is not connected to the
DTA and stored energy devices (UPS, capacitors etc.) are
isolated/discharged/verified zero voltage.
For units with external PMT & MVSG apply LOTO and temporary
safety grounds in accordance with site specific MVSG LOTO.
3. Other location for isolation, (junction box, air switch, switchgear etc.)
requires approval from regional EHS before proceeding.
WTG with the internal unit transformer (PMT):

De-energized state means the turbine is isolated from any potential energy
source by one of the following means in order of preference:
1. High voltage cables are not routed into the WTG. Temporary generator is
not connected to the DTA and stored energy devices (UPS, capacitors etc.)
are isolated/discharged/verified zero voltage.
2. Other location for isolation, (junction box, air switch, switchgear etc.)
requires approval from regional EHS before proceeding.
Definitions:
Temporary Safety Grounds: Grounding cables shall be large enough to
withstand conductor fault current until up stream protective equipment operates.
Grid: The distribution system between points of consumption and production of
energy.
Grid Capable: Utility power can be distributed from or to the Wind Turbine
Generator System. WTGS can be energized using electricity from the power
company or temporary power for commissioning activities or to produce
electricity.
Note 1: Reference the latest procedure for connecting portable generator to
turbine.
