    1) On February 25th, 2007 at 4:30 PM, all generators at the power plant were running normally until the grid frequency suddenly rose from 49.03 Hz to 51.45 Hz, causing all generator outputs to reduce significantly. 2) Total generation dropped from 105 MW to 75 MW, with the remaining load drawn from another power line. 3) Protection devices detected an overfrequency condition and tripped a circuit breaker, isolating the plant from the grid and resulting in an islanding event. The plant then ran at 18 MW to meet on-site demand.

    GRID ISLANDING REPORT

     On dated 25/02/07 at 04:30 PM all the TG’s at CPP – 1,2 & 3 running normal. TG – 6
    was running at 38 MW normally. Geb Line – 1,2 & Tie Line remain in service.
     Suddenly at 04:30:25 Sec. we observed that Grid frequency rises from 49.03 Hz to 51.45
    Hz. At the same time Generation of the entire Generator also reduced as per given below
    suddenly. All other parameters like Voltage, Power factor, Reactive Power, Current and
    Exciter current are also vary proportionally.

    a) TG – 1 20.2 MW 14 MW
    b) TG – 2 10.0 MW 8.2 MW
    c) TG – 3 2.5 MW 3.3 MW
    d) TG – 4 12.4 MW 14.3 MW
    e) TG – 5 23.0 MW 15 MW
    f) TG – 6 38 MW 18 MW

     Total generation was around 105 MW before this phenomenon occurred and after that
    generation was reduced to 75 MW approximately. Remaining load was drawn from GEB
    Line -2.
     On GIS panel following Tripping and annunciation observed at CPP -3.
    a) Rate of change of frequency with respect to time + over frequency
    b) GIS Relay operated

    Other tripping registered in MICOM Relay is as under :

    i. F > 1 TRIP ON 16:32:11:924 Over Frequency stage 1


    ii. F > 2 TRIP ON 16:33:50:623 Over Frequency stage 2
    iii. F < 1 TRIP ON 16:43:13:121 Under Frequency stage 1
    iv. F < 3 TRIP ON 16:43:13:121 Reverse Power with Under Frequency

    And hence GIS Relay operated at 16:31:00 and Line – 1 Breaker tripped through GIS.
    GIS relay at Line – 2 was not operated and we are connected with Grid through Line – 2.

     Generator was running on 18 MW after islanding and to meet the load demand of CPP –
    3. We are drawing power of 22 MW from GEB Line – 2 through Tie Line.
     After reset all the tripping & annunciation we have again synchronized the Line – 1 at
    04:42 PM and then TG – 6 Generation increased from 18 MW to 35 MW again. After
    synchronizing with the Grid we have observed a very large variation of the Frequency
    from 48.33 Hz to 50.15 Hz.
     We came to know from the GEB people there was a problem in the Western Grid and two
    nos. of 220 KV line from Dahej substation to GACL was also tripped.
     At 17:30 PM found that all the parameters of 220 KV grids become normal. Frequency
    variation also reduced.
     During this phenomenon, our CU – 1,2 & 3 plant was not affected.
