Equipment in Substation
Primary Equipment
Power Transformation of voltages for enabling
Transformer transfer of power between circuit/ network.
switches
DC Battery and The essential input for functioning of the secondary system
DC power supply equipment.
Station Auxiliry
Compressed To provide compressed air for pneumatic machines
Air System
Buildings Accommodates the switchyard, Control / Protection
equipment etc.
1) System security
2) Operational flexibility
3) Simplicity of protection
arrangements
4) Ability to limit short circuit levels
(ease of sectionalizing)
5) Maintenance – Its effect on system
security
6) Ease of extension
7) Total land area
8) cost

General Parameters
Objective:
Substation layout consists essentially in arranging
a number of switchgear components in an orderly
pattern governed by their function and rules of
spatial separation.
Pre-requisites:
1) single line diagram
2) Voltage & current rating
3) general layout plan of land
4) orientation of line evacuation
5) Type of Insulation
LAYOUT CONTD…
2) Equipment spacing
a) Ease of maintenance/removal of
equipment.
b) Equipment foundation & their
cable trenches.
c) Distance between LA and equipment
based on the protection reach of LA.
d) The spacings are generally kept in
order to achieve various clearances

3) Bus bars:
The bus bars of 400 kV switchyard are generally made up 4“ IPS
aluminum tube or Quad Moose rated for 3000 A”.
The bus bars of 220/132kV switchyard are generally made up of
3“IPS aluminum tube single / twin moose conductor”. Bus bars are
placed at right angles to the feeders for tapping the power.
4) Switchyard area.
5) Connection Level
7) Road Layout
