Technical Specs for Grid Sub-Stations

The document discusses specifications for insulators and name plates used in isolators. It specifies that insulators must conform to certain standards and testing procedures. Insulator requirements are defined for 420kV, 245kV and 145kV applications, specifying cantilever strength, dimensions, and number of holes. Name plates must conform to IEC standards and include the year of manufacture.

connecting rods of the operating mechanism.

d) The isolator and earth switch shall be designed such that no lubrication of any
part is required except at very infrequent intervals. i.e. after every 1000 operations
or after 5 years whichever is earlier.

3.4 Insulator :

a) The insulator shall conform to IS: 2544 and/or IEC-168. The porcelain of the
insulator shall conform to the requirements stipulated in specification and shall
have a minimum cantilever strength of 600 Kg. for 145 kV insulators and 800 kg
for 245 Kv isolator.

Pressure due to the contact shall not be transferred to the insulators after the main
blades are fully closed.
b) The parameters of the insulators shall meet the requirements specified in
specification.
c) Insulator shall be type and routine tested as per IEC-168. Besides following
additional routine/acceptance tests shall also be conducted:
(i) Bending load test in four directions at 50% of minimum
bending load guaranteed on all insulators, as a routine test.
(ii) Bending load test in four directions at 100% of minimum
bending load as a sample test on each lot.
(iii) Torsional test on sample insulators of a lot.
(iv) Ultrasonic test as a routine test.

d) Requirement of Insulators of Isolators shall be as follows:


i) For 420 kV Insulator:
Cantilever strength (min.) = 1000kg
Top PCD = 127 mm
No. of holes = 4 x M16
Bottom PCD = 325 mm
No. of holes = 8 x 18mm dia
ii) For 245 kV Insulator:
Cantilever strength (min.) = 1000kg
Top PCD = 127 mm
No. of holes = 4 x M16
Bottom PCD = 275 mm
No. of holes = 8 x 18mm dia
iii) For 145 kV Insulator:
Cantilever strength (min.) = 600kg
Top PCD = 127 mm
No. of holes = 4 x M16
Bottom PCD = 254 mm
No. of holes = 8 x 18mm dia

3.5 Name Plate :

The name plate shall conform to the requirements of IEC incorporating


year of manufacture.
