Revision: 0.0
commission a complete and fully functional generator protection and control package to include
both manual and automatic control modes.
2.3.1 Programmable Logic Controller (PLC)
The PLC will be responsible for overall unit condition monitoring and sequencing. The
principle functions of the PLC include:
— Unit Start Sequencing & Start Permissive Monitoring
— Unit Stop Sequencing
— Unit Mechanical Protection (Alarm, Shutdown & Trip)
— Unit Voltage & Power Factor Control
— Unit Gate Position Control
— Unit Load Control
— Unit & Station Water Level Management & Control
— Automatic Unit Dispatch Control
— Unit & Station Monitoring & Alarm Conditioning
— SCADA System Integration & Point of Control
2.3.2 Human Machine Interface (HMI)
Eaton Corporation's offer includes the programming integration of a comprehensive HMI for
station and unit control and monitoring. The Maple Systems HMI will be responsible for all
station and unit alarm annunciation and logging. The HMI graphics will be developed to
match other owned facilities for operator familiarity.
2.3.3 Voltage Controllers
The new generator (supplied by others) shall be equipped with a brushless excitation
system. As such, it is our recommendation, that our protection and control system include a
Basler DECS 250 voltage regulator. This voltage regulator will be integrated as part of a
standalone turbine control system.
2.3.4 Network Architecture
This solution incorporates high quality, reliable components to provide the Jackson Mills
Hydro Electric Facility with a long lasting cost-effective solution. The hardware listed below
will be incorporated into the turbine control enclosure. The overall strategy is to provide an
automation solution that incorporates modern intelligent devices with existing manual
controls in a seamless package. This strategy significantly decreases the field support
required for the upgrade as much of the existing field wiring will not be touched. I/O is
connected to the central processor over a high-speed copper ethernet based connection
using Allen Bradley’s Ethernet IP protocol.
2.4 TESTING, STARTUP & COMMISSIONING
Testing is limited to individual hardware and components as part of the larger system. The
entire system commissioning is excluded from this offer.
