2.02 Description of System

A. Chilled Water System

1. District Cooling System (DCS)

NKIL 6557 is covered in the district cooling system (DCS) of Kai Tak
Development and District Cooling System (DCS) will be adopted. Tower A
and Tower B will be equipped with its own DCS substation. The size of the
DCS substation would take into account of the peak summer cooling load
as well as the seasonal cooling load profile. Chilled water pipes from the
DCS distribution network are connected to the plate type heat exchangers
installed inside the substation. Variable speed chilled water pump will be
provided for distribution of chilled water from the DCS substation to the
development. Building management system (BMS) will be used to control
the speed of the chilled water pumps.

Tower A and Tower B are equipped with their independent district cooling
substation at B2. District cooling pipework will be leaded in from the
Concord road near Tower A, while pipework connection to Tower B will be
teed-off from the district cooling pipes inside DCS substation of Tower
A. No separated DCS pipelines are allowed from Muk Chui Street to Tower
B. The block load for Tower A and Tower B is estimated as 11,000kW and
11,000kW respectively.

2. Chilled Water Distribution System

Variable speed chilled water pumps with differential pressure control


pumps will be adopted. A bypass modulating valve connecting the chilled
water supply and return mains will be installed such that when the
consumer side chilled water return temperature is below 14°C, the
modulating damper will be opened to re-circulate the returned chilled water
back to the system.

Chilled water supply and return temperature will follow EMSD’s technical
guidelines with 6 C supply temperature and 14 C return temperature.

Each heat exchanger (supplied and installed by EMSD) will be provided


with one matching chilled water pump to simplify the control algorithm.
One standby chilled water pump will be provided to enhance the reliability
of the chilled water system. The chilled water pump will be connected to
common header such that each pump can be served as the standby unit
for others. To allow night load / light load operation, one duty and one
standby chilled water pump with lower handling capacity are provided.

The level of topmost floor (UR/F) is +126.70m whereas the lowest floor
(B4/F) is -15.80m, and the overall vertical height of the development is
+142.5m. Therefore, a 16-bar chilled water system would be marginal to
withstand the hydrostatic pressure. In order to allow the application of 16
bar system, chilled water system is provided from B2/F (-5.80m) to UR/F,
whereas split type air conditioning system are provided to B3/F and B4/F.

Direct return chilled water piping system is adopted. Commissioning


valves will be installed at main branch-off located at each floor for water
system balancing. Balancing valves will also be provided at the boundary
of retail shops, light F&B and F&B to facilitate balancing of chilled water
supply.

2. Operate pumps and circulate water throughout system for period of one (1)
day. At the end of the day of circulation, remove and clean all strainer
baskets and blow off all low points.

3. After completion of above circulation, completely drain out system and refill
with clean water and circulate water for one additional day. A chemical test
shall then be made to determine if water contains an alkalinity of 200ppm
or less. If more than 200ppm, redrain and refill; run pumps and continue
doing so until alkalinity drops below 200ppm. When below 200ppm, water
may remain in system for regular operation. pH value shall be maintained

3.03 Carry out operational tests of all electrical equipment in proper staged phases prior to
energising and submit records for approval.

3.04 Develop a complete and detailed plan for the site testing of the power supply systems
beginning with the incoming breakers and following a logical plan which will allow
energisation of the system in a safe and secure manner and to interface and co-
ordinate with the other electrical and mechanical installations. For example, the
battery charger and batteries shall be checked prior to furnishing the DC control power

The circuit breaker control shall be operationally checked for all local control, including
testing up to interface terminal points for signals and control interconnection to other
system or installation prior to carrying out operational tests of the circuit breaker.

3.05 Carry out surveillance and security check of the power supply systems including
padlocking or otherwise maintaining control of the power supply, padlocking of
switchgear and circuit breaker units, distribution switchboards, etc. throughout all
energisation stages of the installation. Co-ordinate with the other specialist contractors
and sub-contractors to assure no downstream cables or other electrical equipment is
energised before being tested and before other specialist contractors' and sub-
contractors' facilities are ready and secure. This requirement shall remain in force for
each part of the system until such a time that the complete installation is certified
complete in writing by the Employer's Authorized Representative.

3.06 Take precautionary measures during testing and the method of tests shall be such that
no danger to persons or property can occur even if the circuit being tested is defective.

4.03 MCC and LMCPs

A. Visual Checks

provisions, etc. to determine if the MCC and LMCPs are ready for further
testing and subsequent delivery to site.

B. Dielectric Test

for phase to earth, phase to phase, phase to neutral, and phase to earth to
measure the insulation resistance.

2. Repeat the above test with all switching devices in closed position.

3. Apply 2kV AC between all live parts and the exposed conductive parts (ie
between L1+L2+L3+N and E) for 60 seconds and measure the leakage
current.

the minimum current that the relay starts to pick up, and the minimum
operating current that the relay operates.

3. After the relay contacts are made, reduce the injected current slowly and
measure the minimum reset current when the relay resets to its normal
position.

4. With the O/L relay PSM at 100% and TMS at 1.0, inject secondary current
at 2 times the rated value and measure the operating time. Repeat the
test at 5 times and 10 times the rated secondary current.
