Power Generarion, Transmission, Distribution and Protection System Equipments 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 23th August to 20th September 2014 and this internship report is the result of those 15 days attachment. Our duration of internship period was divided into four sections: generation, instrumentation and control (I&C), mechanical and electrical. 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. With the help of the plant engineers we observed the control room, protective equipments such as relays, circuit breakers. We acquired knowledge about various types of transformers, isolators, circuit breakers, lightning arresters, current transformers, potential transformers and other equipments of the power station, the details of which are described in the text.
