GENERAL
We need all transformer and other “reactance” equipment such as reactors nameplate information and type test certificates to extract positive, negative and zero sequence data,
Busbar protection scheme at Gurara (type and settings)
Busbar protection scheme at Kudenda (type and settings)
FDR protection between Gurara and Kudenda – need to know type, settings etc. (also confirm that this is “Twin Bison”?)
TRF and FDR protection at Kudenda (type and settings)
Line communication between Gurara / Kudenda? (they might have PLC on the line – this will required additional communication filters at both ends to stop comms going into distribu
PQ equipment installed at Gurara
Any inputs they have on power quality guarentees from the Hydro plant’s perspective?
Latest transmission and generation network development plan/s (Masterplans)
Latest PSSE case file of the transmission and generation network
Progress / Status of current Transmission projects in the vicinity of KAEDCO supply area (need to understand timelines and completion dates – what impact it would have on KAEDCO)
How is power factor treated and compensated for – is reactive power compensation planned and where?
Need to understand operational constraints on Mando, Town One TS (any de-rated equipment, lack of redundancy due to major outages / condition of equipment etc.)
