Prevent instability at

DCPP for loss of two of

three 500kV lines (Diablo-

Gates, Diablo-Midway #1

and Diablo-Midway #2).

Trip either DCPP Unit

#1 or DCPP Unit #2

The SPS monitors the

status of the three 500 kV

lines connected to Diablo

Canyon PP, as well the

DCPP unit outputs. If two of

three 500 kV lines are lost

on contingency and the total

plant output is above a

specific threshold, the SPS

trips one of the two Diablo

Canyon PP generating

units.

2006

Scheme has been in-service for 12 years with no

operation (correct operation or incorrect operation)

Planning Study

Intensive Synchronous Swings

Possible Loss of Synchronism between Plant and WECC System for:

– Single Line Trip (or Outage) in a Double Line System (Event 1)

– Double Line Trip (or Outage) in a Three Line System (Event 2)

– Delayed Clearing Faults (Breaker Failure) (Event 3)

Planning Study (Original)

Possible Consequences of Swings

Loss of Plant (DUO) caused by:

– Plant Out-of-Step relay operation– Reactor Coolant Pump (RCP) Undervoltage

protection (delayed clearing faults cause motor stall)

Violation of NERC/WECC Planning Standard for Voltage Dips

Internal

Planning Study (Original)

Consequences of Swings and/or Separation

▪ Could Impose significant stress on WECC – Increase dependence on the adequate performance of protecting and regulating devices throughout the system.

▪ Introduce the possibility of a cascading affect.

▪ A loss of 2450 MW may cause a definite strain on the remaining generating resources.

Page 9: Diablo Canyon Special Protection Scheme (RAS) Presentation.pdf · relay to relay com redundant fiber ring (tx & rx 64 bit) relay to relay com sys - a sys - b dcpp_ dcsps 12-2005 dpe4

Internal

Scheme Considerations

▪ Pulsing generator voltages upward immediately after a critical disturbance with full utilization of generator short-term overloading capabilities.

▪ Turbine main and intercept valve fast closing, initiated by an advanced overspeed control or by a disturbance detecting device.

▪ Tripping one generator immediately after indication of a critical disturbance.

– It was found that only the third measure is effective enough in the whole range of DCPP generation for the first swing suppression.

A loss of one unit does not affect WECC stability.

Solution

Diablo Canyon Special Protection Scheme

▪ Provides measures for preventing a loss of two DCPP

units on line/BF trips and unexpected Line Outages

▪ Results in preventing system instabilities on a loss of

two DCPP units.

Instability prevented by intentional tripping of one

Diablo Canyon Unit.

Instability Conditions

500kV line faults may cause dynamic instability, if

DCPP generates:

▪ above MWL1 for single line trips in a 2-line scheme (1808 MW)

▪ above MWL2 for double line trips in a 3-line scheme (1790 MW)

▪ above MWL3 for delayed clearing (12 cycles) AND V1 < .4 pu (1723

MW)

Post-transient stability – Double Line outage: ▪ DCPP output should be limited to L5 MW if dynamic stability is not

lost (O-23).

Scheme must issue trip within 70msec of line trips

and within 3 seconds for line outages

500kV Line Outage Detection

The scheme is implemented only at Diablo 500kV and the

contingency detection part of the scheme monitors the “outage”

condition of the three 500kV export lines leaving Diablo. Each line

and has three outage detection methods. The three outage

detection methods, combined together, result in determination of a

Line Outage (“OR” of the following conditions) –

1. Protection Trip bus detection (does not sense manual opening of the

CB’s). This “pre-determines” a line outage 2-3 cycles before the

breakers open.

2. Local Outage Detection – Undercurrent and Breaker seals determine a

line outage (invoked for manual opening of the line CB’s.

3. Remote Outage Detection – Undercurrent monitored only at Diablo, and

has a time delay (1-second). This element is only enabled when the

aggregate plant output exceeds the reaches the minimal scheme arming

point (1720 MW).

Setting: 219 Amps

6. The DCSPS will issue a Unit Trip when:

1. System A and System B decide to trip the same unit

2. Either system decides to trip and the other system has no trip decision within

16ms

1. Ex: Sys A is armed and Sys B is unarmed due to different power level

measurements

3. One System decides to trip and the other system has a critical error

7. If System A indicates one unit trip and System B indicates the other unit trip, NO

trip is issued.

8. A Line “Trip” is recognized when:

1. All 3-Phase trip signals on both breakers indicate “trip”

2. Three trip on one breaker with the adjacent breaker in the Open/Maintenance

state

Control Point Implementation & Monitoring

• The Control Point equations below will allow the Grid Control

Center to monitor the potential line flows if DCPP were to ramp

down to 1700 MW.

• Mitigation strategies considered if ROD were not removed.

Verbiage from Corresponding 5MM

1. Diablo Canyon Power Plant will be restricted to 1700 MW output under the

following conditions:

• Diablo-Gates 500kV line outage

• Diablo-Midway #2-500kV line outage

• Diablo-Midway #3-500kV line outage

• Midway #1-500kV bus outage

• Midway #2-500kV bus outage

• Any outage of Midway CB 802, 902, 912, or 812 that places the system in a

configuration where a single contingency with a breaker failure operation

would cause the open ending of both the Diablo-Midway #2 and #3 500kV

lines.

For any loss of the remote ends of the Diablo-Gates 500kV line, Diablo-Midway #2-

500kV line, and the Diablo-Midway #3-500kV line, the Grid Control Center would

deenergize the line from Diablo Canyon so that the local portion of the Diablo SPS

recognizes that the line is out of service. At the same time, Diablo Canyon will be

given the order to limit output to 1700 MW.

RASRS Approval Request

PG&E seeks approval to remove “Remote Open Detection” portion of

the logic and monitor with a control point calculation.

The scheme will be less dependable in detecting Open Ended lines.

A newly developed operating procedure covers the scenario with “Remote

Outage Detection” disabled.

PG&E requests two changes –

1. Short Term (Today): Disabling the Remote Outage detection. Cover via operating

procedure captured in a 5 Minute Meeting.

2. Longer Term (Six Months): Implement the Remote Outage detection in a more

secure manner. Place devices at the remote end of the line and implement logic

like the “local Outage detection”. Monitor with control point calculation and

documented procedure.
