4 Electrical Power Plant

4.1 Electrical power supply

Fig.4.1 shows the power station diagram of the ship (ID: 116). It shows that the ship’s electric
power is generated by:
- Three 1120 kW/450 V/60 Hz/900 rpm diesel engine driven synchronous generators
- One 260 kW/450 V/60 Hz/1800 rpm emergency generator

Fig.4.1 Power station diagram

The electrical power is distributed via:

- One main switchboard, divided into two main 440V bus bars and one 220V bus bar
- One emergency switchboard, divided into one emergency 440V bus bar and one
emergency 220V bus bar
- One DC 24V panel, with one 24V bus bar
No.1 and No.2 main 440V bus bars are connected by a bus tie (BT), and they power all the
440V electrical equipment, 220V transformers, and the emergency 440V bus bar through a
bus tie circuit breaker (BT-CB), in normal condition.
In emergency, the emergency generator powers the emergency 440V bus bar, through an
emergency circuit breaker (EG-CB) and an isolation breaker (EG-BT), with the bus tie circuit
breaker open.

4.2 Main switchboard functions

The main switchboard includes 3 diesel generator panels, 1 synchro & bus tie circuit breaker
panel, 4 group starter panels, 4 AC440V feeder panels, 1 AC220V feeder panel, and 6
AC440V engine room group starter panels.

10
Each of the generator panels contains meters for V, A, kW, kVAr and Hz. A selector switch
enables the reading of the separate phases.
Voltage control
The field voltage (magnetisation) setting device enables voltage control and balancing
between active and reactive load when the generators are operating in parallel. The voltage of
each generator can be adjusted by the “Votage Regulator” selector, from corresponding diesel
generator panels. Fig.4.2 shows No.1 diesel generator panel (ID: 104).

Fig.4.2 No.1 diesel generator panel

RPM control
The rpm of each generator, can be adjusted by the “DG1 (or 2 or 3) Governor” selector, from
the synchro & bus tie circuit breaker panel. Fig.4.3 shows the synchro & bus tie CB panel (ID:
106).
Generator breakers
Automatic disconnection of the generators from the bus bar is activated by the following
functions:
- Instant over current of generator
- Fast over current of generator
- Slow over current of generator
- Reversed power
- Low voltage

11
 - Low frequency
The breakers also activate the non essential consumer trip.

Fig.4.3 Synchro & bus tie CB panel

4.3 Operation modes of the electrical power plant

The electric power system is designed for three operation modes:

- Manual
- Semi-auto
- Auto
The operation mode can be selected by the “Control Mode Select” from the synchro & bus tie
circuit breaker panel (ID: 106).

4.4 Emergency generator

The emergency generator is connected to the emergency 440V bus bar (on the emergency
switchboard), through an emergency circuit breaker (EG-CB) and an isolation breaker
(EG-BT). The emergency bus bar is powered from the main 440V bus bars through a bus tie
circuit breaker (BT-CB), in normal conditon. In the event of failure of normal supply from the
main bus bar, the emergency generator will be started automaticly, if AUTO mode is selected.
Then, the emergency bus bar is supplied by the emergency generator.
In the event of low voltage at the main bus bar, the following sequence will take place,
provided that the emergency generator is in AUTO:

12
 - The bus tie circuit breaker (BT-CB) is opened.
- The emergency generator is started.
- The emergency circuit breaker (EG-CB) is closed, and then the emergency generator
is connected to the emergency bus bar.
When the voltage at the main bus bar is re-established the sequence is:
- The bus tie circuit breaker (BT-CB) is closed.
- The emergency generator circuit breaker (EG-CB) is disconnected.
- The emergency generator stops after a few minutes of idling.
NOTE
The isolation breaker (EG-BT) should be kept in ON position, when the power supply is
normally.
It is not possible to run the emergency generator in parallel with the main generators.

4.5 Shore power

The main bus bar is supplied from shore connection via the shore cable and the shore circuit
breaker (SCB). The emergency bus bar can also be powered by the shore power, via the shore
circuit breaker (SCB) and bus tie circuit breaker (BT-CB).
At cable connection, the electric phase will be chosen at random at first, then, phase check
should be taken. The measures of phase check are as follows:
- Push the Phase Check button on the emergency 440V feeder panel, as shown in Fig.4.4.
- Observe the Phase Sequence Detector:
- if the Normal lamp is lighting, it’s indicating that the phase of the shore power is
accordance with the ship power;
- if the Reverse lamp is lighting, it’s indicating that the phase of the shore power is
NOT accordance with the ship power, two connections should be changed at random,
then take the above measures again, until the Normal lamp is lighting.
- Close the shore circuit breaker, and then the shore power is supplied to the ship.
NOTE
It is forbidden to connect the shore power when the main bus bar is live. And also, it is
imporsible to close the circuit breaker of generators when the shore power is connected.

6.4 Quick close control system

The quick close control system (ID: 85), as shown in Fig.6.4, is used to close the outlet valves of
the oil tanks in emergency situations, such as abandoning ship or firing in engine room.
The system consists of an emergency shut-off air reservoir, five air distributors, pipes, valves,
etc.

Fig.6.4 Quick close control system

The operation procedures are as follows:
- Fill the emergency shut-off air reservoir from the air control line by opening the inlet
valve of the air reservoir.
