Power Generation, Transmission, Distribution and Protection System of Siddhirganj 2×120 MW Peaking Power Plant.

Abstract

We did our internship at Siddhirganj 2×120 MW Peaking Power Plant located at Siddhirganj, Narayanganj on the bank of the river Shitalakkha from 12th August to 8th of September 2012 and this internship report is the result of those 15 days attachment. During our internship period we gathered practical experiences over the topics related to power generation, switchgear protection and power distribution which we have learned inside the class room or from books. In this report we have focused on the processes which are used in Siddhirganj 2×120 MW Peaking Power Plant. For power generation, natural gas is used in Siddhirganj 2×120 MW Peaking Power Plant. Protection and controlling of the equipments of the power station is a very important and complicated task. With the help of the plant engineers we observed the control room and protective equipments, such as, relays, circuit breakers very closely and understood the functions and controlling system of those equipments. We acquired knowledge about various types of transformers, isolators, circuit breakers, lightning arresters, current transformers, potential transformers and other equipments of the power station which were clearly taught and shown by the engineers of the Siddhirganj 2×120 MW Peaking Power Plant.
