I am currently working on a project to feed electrical output from an energy centre into 11kV ring main and distribute power to different consumers. Since the electrical output from the energy centre is over 10MW then the 11KV network needs to be upgraded to 33kV network. To prevent this I am considering of installation of a new 11KV network to feed power to 5 sites and the energy centre could be connected to multiple 11KV ring mains. I was wondering what strategy/electrical equipment require to install new 11KV network and interface the energy centre into all 11KV networks. Could anyone please explain about the control strategy of how power will be distributed to each site so a specific proportion could be transmit to specific site?

Thank you

 

I assume from your question that additional demand has been added to the 10MW generator and you now need to decide whether to increase the transmission line capacity by increasing voltage or by adding additional 11kV circuits?

It is an impossible question to answer without knowing specifics! Are we talking about one or two large industrial customers? Are we talking about hundreds of houses? What distances are involved? Could we transmit at 33kV then distribute at 11kV?

As for the "strategy/electrical equipment required", that will depend upon the situation and could even vary from country.

 

This is scary. Please consult an engineering firm qualified to do this. You are playing with the lives of potentially very many people and you don't sound like you even know where to start. This will only end badly if you do not get proper help.

 

I assumed this was a hypothetical homework question! Please tell me you're not doing this for real?!

If it's a homework assignment for school, he went to extra effort to make it sound legit.

 

Hello,

This looks like a continuation of these old threads, wich I now have closed:
