Figure 1-5 illustrates a typical industrial plant one-
line diagram. This application has two independent
sources, with each half of the processing plant
operated by each source. There is normally an
open tie breaker between the two motor buses. In
this application two M-4272 MBTS are used. Each
system controls a source breaker and the tie breaker.
Whichever source fails has its breaker tripped and
the tie breaker is closed, this transfers the motor
bus load to the remaining source which now supplies
power to the entire plant.
In general, the voltage characteristic of a motor bus
during a transfer is governed by the motor loads
operating at the time of transfer. The majority of
auxiliary system motors are induction motors with
few synchronous motors used in isolated cases.
The types of motors in use will, to a great degree,
determine the voltage characteristics of the auxiliary
system buses. When the bus is disconnected from
the source, the motors will maintain a voltage due
to the energy stored in the motor fields. The intital
magnitude of the voltage depends on the integrity of
the power source prior to being disconnected.
A three phase fault in the Unit Auxiliary Generator
Step-up transformer or on the high voltage bus near
the plant may completely deenergize the motor
fields and the resultant voltage will be minimal.
However, for all other cases a significant voltage
will be induced on the motor bus. The induced
voltage will have a dynamic amplitude and phase
charateristic that will depend on the inertia of the
motor loads and the field energy stored in the
motors.
The charactersistics for synchronous and induction
motors are shown in Figures 1-6 and 1-7 respectively.
Figure 1-6 represents a 6000 hp I.D. fan motor
operating at 25% load proior to transfer. This is an
example of a characteristic for a large motor driving
a high inertia load. The voltage magnitude requires
42 cycles to drop 50% of it’s initial value and the
angle takes more than 60 cycles to complete a 360
degree rotation. The 960 hp boiler circulating pump
motor used for Figure 1-7 data shows a dramatic
variation in characteristics. The voltage magnitude
drops to 50% within 10 cycles and the phase
completes a 360 degree rotation in less than eight
cycles.
