Revamping & Upgradation of Emergency Power Generation Control System

Precision Integrated is undertaking a major control system revamp and upgrade for an existing 30MWe Emergency Power Generation System, consisting of 5 x 6MWe, 11kV Low-Speed Machines. This project enhances the automation, reliability, and efficiency of the power control infrastructure, ensuring seamless operation during critical power transitions.

Upgraded Control System Components

Local Genset Control Panel (LGCP)

  • Monitors and controls each individual generator set
  • Performs basic protection functions for reliable generator operation

Master Control Panel (MCP) – Centralized Automation Hub
The MCP houses DEIF controllers and serves as the operator interface (HMI) for efficient system management.

Key Features & Functions of MCP:

  • Remote Start/Stop Control – Issues generator start/stop commands and manages circuit breaker (CB) operations
  • Automatic Mains Failure (AMF) Function – Detects mains failure and executes the required breaker operations
  • Integrated Electrical Protection – Ensures safe and stable generator operation
  • Synchronization Capabilities – Manages synchronization:
    • Between generators
    • Between generators and the main supply
  • Load-Dependent Start/Stop – Embedded feature for dynamic load monitoring and optimized generator usage (Not utilized in this project)
  • Power Management & Load Control – Automates load balancing, feeder control, and utility synchronization for efficient power distribution
  • Management of Tie-In CBs & Utility Mains (A, B & C) – Sync and load-sharing operations during load testing and restoration

Enhancing System Efficiency & Reliability

By integrating advanced DEIF controllers with a modernized HMI, this revamped control system will:

  • Improve power transition efficiency during emergencies
  • Enhance system automation and monitoring for seamless operation
  • Ensure synchronization & protection for optimal generator performance
  • Enable precise power management, maximizing reliability and safety
