Coordination Reports

  1. -

 

Old Business:

C37.109, IEEE Guide for the Protection of Shunt Reactors has completed ballot for reaffirmation. There were no negative ballots. The document has been submitted to REVCOM for reaffirmation.

 

New Business :

Adi Mulawarman has agreed to be the new web master for the K subcommittee. Charlie Sufana has served as the web master for several years. We thank Charlie for his years of service.

 

IEEE PES Substation committee: There is a new WG I9 - IEEE Recommended Practice of a Modern Protection System for Static Var Compensators Chaired by M. Halonen. The document will cover protection aspects integrated with controls in SVC. Pratap met with the working group at the joint meeting this week and informed them of the various PSRC guides that are in existence so that they could make sure that they only write on topics outside of existing guides and reference the appropriate documents as required.

 

Steve Conrad asked the group if anyone has seen new circuit breakers with the CTs mounted with the polarity opposite to what was shown on the nameplate diagram. They have had a number of breakers with this problem from one manufacturer. No one else had seen this problem. Steve cautioned everyone to make sure that they perform polarity tests on new equipment so that they will find this type of error should it occur.
