drawing 254625-300-ELE-4107).
a) PMCC shall have four incomers (one Transformer incomer & Three DG incomers) & two
bus couplers. Under normal condition Transformer incomer will feed entire terminal load.
All the D.G.sets shall be off & all bus couplers shall be closed.
b) Under loss of power supply due to grid power failure or transformer fault, DG-1 shall be
started on AMF signal from PMCC Line PT under voltage relay. When DG-1 is running,
the bus coupler-1 shall open. DG-1 shall feed all the loads except loads connected to wagon
filling MCC, Bunkering /shipping MCC.
c) Motor re-acceleration scheme is not envisaged in case of grid power failure & motors will
have to be started again after starting of DG.
d) Incase DG-1 is running & Grid power is resumed, the Transformer Incomer ACB shall be
closed through synchronizing with DG-1 incomer & after preset delay the DG incomer
shall trip. Thus only momentary paralleling of DG-1 & transformer incomer is envisaged.
e) In case of loss of power supply & D.G.-1 fails to start, Critical DG-3 shall start after time
delay on AMF signal from Line PT on bus-1 & shall feed loads connected to Bus-3 only.
f) DG-2 may be started manually as & when wagon filling, Bunkering/Shipping MCC/OMC
operations are required & grid power is not available.
g) In case of Grid supply failure during night, the critical DG-3 will start on AMF signal &
feed the critical load including lighting. During night when there is no Operation in the
terminal, the AMF starting scheme for DG-1 shall be disabled.
h) In case when DG-2 & DG-3 are running, changeover from DG to grid shall be manual.
Paralleling of DG-2 & DG-3 with the grid is not envisaged.
2.2 PCC (For Electrical Heat Tracing - EHT)

(Refer SLD 254625-300-ELE-4102 & Schematic drawing 254625-300-ELE-4107)
a) PCC shall have three incomers (one Transformer incomer, one DG incomer & one feeder
F9 from PMCC) & one bus coupler.
b) Under normal condition Transformer shall feed the entire load. and DG-4 & the feeder
feeding the Bus-2 loads from DG-2 shall be off and bus-coupler shall be closed.
c) In case of grid supply failure, DG-4 & DG-2 shall be started manually and the ACB feeding
Bus-2 shall be closed. These DGs shall operate independently & Bus-coupler of PCC shall
open during DG operation. Synchronising between DG-4 & DG-2 is not envisaged.
d) When the grid power supply resumes, changeover from DG to Normal supply shall be
manual changeover. These DG’s shall not be paralleled with the grid at any time.

4.2. Operating Philosophy of Group VFD
4.2.1 Function of TAS PLC

The operation (as described in the Remote Auto mode below) will be carried out by TAS PLC.
Start & emergency stop command for each group shall be provided by TAS PLC to VFD via
MCC Interface PLC. TAS PLC will monitor drives & their energy consumption and further
generate necessary report including energy consumption reports (pump wise and product wise).
Master motor selection (To select the motor which should run on VFD) and issue of Pressure set
point for all product groups shall possible by TAS PLC. It can change the PID parameters and
can monitor the speed of the motor running on VFD.
4.2.2 Function of INTERFACE PLC

Function of INTERFACE PLC is to provide facility to start any pump of the group with one
VFD and run the same on VFD to control the required set pressure in the line by switching in
other pumps
(one by one) as per sequence of operation assigned by TAS PLC with their respective soft
starters. INTERFACE PLC also ensures control, monitoring the operation of the pumps on
receipt of command from TAS PLC and also transmits the energy consumption data and other
information about the status/operation of drives and starters to TAS. PID loop which controls the
operation is set in the INTERFACE PLC.
4.2.3 All the group VFD product pump motors will be controlled in following modes :
• Remote Auto mode( From TAS PLC via Ethernet bus)
• Remote back up Auto mode (via Ethernet bus & via hard wired contacts)
• Local mode
4.2.3.1 Remote Auto mode ( From TAS PLC via Ethernet bus)
In this mode of operation, Local / Remote selector switch shall be in remote position. PID
operation is used in the Remote-Auto mode to receive pressure set point to control the speed
of the pump to maintain a constant header pressure for proper loading. 2nos pressure
transmitters provided on each product header shall be connected to MCC INTERFACE PLC
and TAS PLC. The pressure transmitter provides a pressure feedback in the form of 4-20mA
to group VFD. The PID loop programmed in the group VFD receives a pressure set point
from TAS PLC & maintains a pump speed to match the pressure set point with Pressure
transmitter feedback.
The remote mode operation is initiated with a ‘Group start command’ from the TAS PLC,
through Ethernet Bus. After receiving this command the group VFD starts the motor (which
is selected as master by TAS PLC) on VFD and performs the following operation :
• VFD varies the speed of the pump w.r.t. the pressure requirement set as the target of
PID.
• In case if the pressure requirement is not achieved even after the VFD reaches its full
speed, the second motor of the group is started using soft starter.

SP-ELE-003.doc
• When the second motor is started on Soft starter, it reaches its full speed within 15
seconds time and there may be a sharp rise in the pressure.
• Speed of the pumps, which is running on VFD, is reduced to maintain only the set
pressure on the delivery head.
• If the pressure requirement is not met with even two pumps running at their full capacity
third and fourth (where ever applicable) motors are turned on, with a constant watch on
the pressure requirement on the delivery side. When the pressure set point is less than
the actual pressure on the delivery line, the VFD speed reduces and if it reaches to
‘10%’ speed for more than 10 seconds, then the last motor (which was started on Soft
starter) will be turned off and VFD picks up its speed.
The speed of the pump, running on VFD are decided by the PID, using the pressure set point
and the process value. No manual intervention is possible in this mode. (Other than group
start & stop command) and the logic is automatically controlled by the TAS PLC through
MCC interface group PLC.
In case if the motor of the product group needs to be taken in maintenance, incoming supply
to its soft starter shall be switched off and the local remote selector switch of that motor
shall be put in ‘Local’ mode.
In case if the Master motor (the one which is running on the VFD) trips on a fault, all group
motors will be stopped. (Other motor can be selected as Master motor from TAS PLC &
group can be re-started).
At the same time if a group motor which is running on soft starter, trips on a fault the
operation will continue with other motors.
When the ‘Group start command’ is active, individual motor start command for that group
will not be accepted unless it is selected in ‘Local’ mode.
In case of failure of TAS PLC totally, MCC INTERFACE PLC can run the system
independently but the set point for the group and deciding the initial start command for the
group will be given from MCC INTERFACE PLC manually, through workstation.
4.2.3.2 Remote Back-up Auto Mode(via Ethernet bus & via hard wired contacts)
In this mode, in case of failure of MCC INTERFACE PLC, individual motors can be started
and stopped on their corresponding soft starters by the TAS PLC. However there will be no
PID operation available.
4.2.3.3 Local mode

This mode is selected when the selector switch on the LCS is put into ‘Local’ position. In
the local mode each motor can be started / stopped from its LCS or VFD panel. No PID
operation is possible in this mode and the motor on-off control is done manually. This mode
will be generally used for Test operations.
4.2.4 All other pump motors (viz. Utility service pumps, slop pumps, product overfill recycle pumps
etc.) provided with Star-Delta / DOL starters will be operated in the following modes :
Local mode from local control station.

SP-ELE-003.doc
Remote mode (manually) from control room

from control room or from pump house. Local remote selector switch shall be provided in
the Local control station.
