5.1.3 Short Circuit Capacity The windings must be adequately braced against mechanical and electrical vibrations and stresses, and capable of withstanding short circuits as specified in AS 2374-, Part 5. The regulators shall be designed to withstand r.m.s. symmetrical short-circuit currents of 25 times the normal full load current for a period of 2 seconds.

5.1.4 On Load Tap Changing Equipment The regulators shall be provided with on-load tap changing equipment suitable for regulating the voltage. The tap changing equipment shall be complete with all necessary additional windings, voltage transformers, current transformers and other equipment required in the terms of this specification for automatically maintaining the voltage on the outgoing side within 1% of the required value under all conditions of voltage variation on the incoming side within the tapping range and load variations specified below. When connected in accordance with the configurations listed in clause 5.1.2 above, the regulators shall maintain the normal output line voltage within 1% of the required value under all loading conditions, for variations of the input voltage from +10% to –10% of rated voltage. This shall be achieved by providing thirty-three tappings in steps of 5/8% of nominal voltage. Tenderers shall state whether provision can be made to change the range of regulation from 10% raise and 10% lower to 15% raise and 5% lower by means of an internal voltage tap. The regulators shall be provided with a voltage limiting facility to control the minimum and maximum limits on the voltage of the output terminals of the regulator. The variation of voltage between tapping’s shall be smooth and without disturbance of line conditions. The equipment shall not cause radio interference in any position of the tap changer whether the same is fixed or in motion. The time required to change from one tapping position to the next shall be stated in the tender documentation. The tap changing equipment shall not cause any change of phase angle. The regulator shall be suitable for fully automatic operation independent of any external supply for the auxiliary equipment. Fuses shall not be fitted inside the regulator tank. The equipment shall be suitable for fully automatic operation as well as by manual operation from a control switch or push buttons in the control panel. Once a change of tapping has been initiated the operating equipment shall complete the change under its own control whether operated automatically or manually, and irrespective of any change in line voltage. Each regulator shall have the facility of either manual or automatic operation of the tap changer by either source of power (the regulator) or an external power source controlled by a three position switch labelled to indicate the method. i.e. “internal”, “off” and “external”. The external (auxiliary) source shall be 240 V, 50 Hz and the external source terminals shall be marked by a label accordingly.

Each regulator shall be capable, if required, of being “auto/remote” controlled. The feature shall be supplied as a “plug-in” optional accessory to enable remote control of the regulator. The feature shall enable full remote metering and real-time operation capability including changing of parameters, the ability to tap up or down a specified number of taps, the ability to determine the status of local activity, etc. The feature shall also cater for 2 external digital inputs eg. remote radio battery alarm. Only in special circumstances will the radio be located remotely from the regulator site. Reverse Power Flow Detection - Purchaser will require some regulator units supplied under this contract to be armed with the capability of detecting reverse power flow, and sensing and controlling the output voltage regardless of the direction of power flow. Full details (including cost) of the additional components and the modifications to the control circuitry necessary for incorporating this facility to the regulator units offered shall be provided with the tender submission. Metering Voltage Transformer and Current Transformer - Voltage and current transformers shall be provided in the regulator for the operation of the line drop compensator and the metering requirement detailed in clause 5.2.7 below.

Each regulator tank shall have a circular base and four equally spaced bush type shipping lugs. To reduce the possibility of rusting of the tank, channels, angle brackets or similar materials shall be attached to the tank to ensure that the base is not in contact with any other surface while in storage or while being transported. Round tanks with square bases and folded edges are unacceptable.

5.2.2.8 Location of Fittings All fittings shall be located in positions suitable to the Purchaser’s requirements as illustrated in Drawing No’s A3- 1345 (sheet 3).

5.2.2.9 Control Cubicle Mounting Each control cubicle shall be fitted with two mounting points centrally located on the vertical axis to align with and suit the mounting holes shown in Drawing No’s A4-872551-01.

5.2.4.4 Independent and Reliable A minimum of two independent and reliable means shall be provided to determine and confirm the position of the neutral tap position, and shall be visible from the operating position of the control box. If the tap position indicator is one of the means, it shall be entirely reliable over the normal working life of the regulator. The Supplier will be required to prove the reliability and the soundness of the T.P.I design. Each means shall be suitable for use both with the regulator in service and also when it is being readied for service. The proximity of exposed live conductors shall not prevent use of either means. It is preferred that the neutral tap position can be determined also by means of potential detecting devices and displayed on an electronic screen. Tenderers shall comment on the ability of their equipment to perform this function. All means of determining the neutral tap position shall be visible from the operating position at the control box refer to
