The substation wise status of compliance are available at ERPC website (Observations include PLCC rectification/activation which needs a comprehensive plan). In 77th PCC, BSPTCL has submitted the updated status. In 79th & 80th PCC, BSPTCL was advised to submit the details of the compliance report. BSPTCL may update. ITEM NO. C.4: Non-commissioning of PLCC / OPGW and non-implementation of carrier
aided tripping in 220kV and above lines. According to CEA technical standard for construction of electric plants and electric lines -Clause 43(4) (c), transmission line of 220 KV and above should have single-phase auto-reclosing facility for improving the availability of the lines. However, from the tripping details attached June-August, 2016 it is evident that the some of 220kV above Inter & Intra-Regional lines do not having auto-reclose facility either at one end or at both ends. Out of these for some of the lines even PLCC/OPGW is not yet installed and carrier aided protection including Autorecloser facility is not yet implemented. Based on the trippings of June- August, 2016 and PMU analysis a list of such lines has been prepared and as given below:

84th PCC Agenda
Incident No. 07-09-19/1 Dtd: 24-09-19 Report on the incident in Eastern Region involving JUSNL system
Date / Time of disturbance: 07-09-19, 17:32 hrs.
Category : - GD-I
Quantum of load/generation loss: 180 MW load loss with no generation loss Summary of the event:
220 kV Dumka – Govindpur - II was idle charged from Dumka end. Due to improper protection setting,
Dumka end failed to clear the fault in idle charged portion of 220 kV Dumka – Govindpur – II. As per
voltage dip observed in PMU data, fault seems to be in high resistive nature due to rocky terrain around
Dumka. To clear the fault, 400/220 kV ICTs at Maithon, 220 kV Maithon – Kalyaneshwari D/C, 220 kV
Maithon – Dhanbad D/C, 220 kV Maithon – Dumka D/C also tripped resulting total power failure at
Dumka and 220 kV side of Maithon S/S. As per PMU data, fault clearing time is around 25 seconds. Due to
loss of 220 kV infeed from Maithon S/S, loading of 400/220 kV ICT – II at Durgapur (PG) increased to 320
MW.
Major lapses have been observed in protection as well as operation such as non-informing to ERLDC
regarding charging of this line in real time (Non-Compliance of Operational Liasion under IEGC 5.6.2.b as
well as CEA Grid Standard 6.2), Protection Setting for Idle charge setting for transmission line not
implemented prior to the charging of the line (Decision was taken in ER PCC Forum and widely
communicated to all Users)
As per PMU data, the fault in 220 kV Maithon-Govindpur circuit persisted for than more than 25 seconds.
Due to delayed clearance of this fault, 400/220 kV ICTs at Maithon, 220 kV Maithon-Dhanbad D/C, 220 kV
Maithon-Kalyaneshwari D/C tripped on backup Protection, which led to Overloading of 315 MVA 400/220
kV Durgapur ICTs TO 320 MW. In case this ICT had tripped then this event could have led to massive
power failure across DVC Network.

Major elements tripped:
220 Maithon Kalyaneshwari D/C
220kV Maithon-Dhanbad D/C
220kV Maithon-Dumka D/C
After tripping at Dumka and Maithon S/S, DVC drawl from
Durgapur S/S increased resulting overloading of 400/220 kV
ICT II at Durgapur to 320 MW.
400/220 kV ICTs at Maithon
Restoration:
500 MVA ICT-I & ICT-II at Maithon charged by 17:53 Hrs.
220kV Maithon-Dhanbad D/C – charged at 18:04
220kV Maithon-Kalyaneshwari D/C – charged at 18:08
220kV Maithon-Dumka D/C – charged at 18:10 & Dumka load restored.
Protection issues observed
As per decision taken in 67th ER PCC meeting, time delays for Zone 1, Zone 2, Zone 3 and Directional E/F
are to be made instantaneous and Directional E/F and O/C Pick up Current is to be set as 120 % of the
line charging current of the idle charged length. However from relay data shared, time delay of distance
protection is not found to be zero except for zone 1 at Dumka S/S for Govindpur feeder. Directional Earth
fault protection (initial value was set as 160 A) also did not pick up at Dumka end though neutral current
was observed was in range of 400-1000 A. If time setting of directional over current protection is kept as
IEC inverse instead of instantaneous with current setting equal to 120 % of the line charging current of
the idle charged length, fault could have been cleared way ahead of its time. JUSNL may explain
JUSNL may explain the nature and reason of the fault occurred in idle charged section of 220 kV Dumka-
Govindpur circuits, which takes much longer time to be cleared from remote ends. JUSNL may share the
length of idle charged section. JUSNL may share the reason for non –operation of any protection and
delayed clearance of fault more than 25 seconds.
JUSNL may confirm bus-bar protection was in service at Dumka or not and the idle charged line was
covered in B/B protection (if in B/B in service). JUSNL may investigate the healthiness of LBB protections
of all breakers at Dumka S/S as B phase pole did not trip as per relay DR shared even after trip command
issued at Dumka S/S.
Operation issues observed
ERLDC Control Room Has not been informed regarding this charging in Real-time.
Data for 220/132 kV Dumka Substation even after getting charged for so many days has not been
integrated at ERLDC and no data is reported and Grid Operator are not able to observe any operation
being carried out this substation. Even for the new element charging, no information/integration on side
of Data has been done which is serious as results in blind operation of the specific part of the network.
No Data for 220/132 kV Dumka substation was available with ERLDC and thus no event alarm is available
for such important element and substation causing insecure operation
Jharkhand SLDC may confirm whether SLDC is having the Real-Time data integration of 220 /132 kV
Dumka and this new line in their SCADA system and able to monitor the new element charging from their
end.
