8 High Voltage Substation Definitions Substations (S/S) are node points in the transmission and distribution networks of electrical energy in all voltage levels up to 1100 kv (1200 kv planning stage). Asubstation is the entirety of all devices (switchgear, control, protection and measuring equipment) and auxiliary systems necessary to ensure the reliable operation. Predominate task is the connection and isolation of overhead lines, cables, gasinsulated lines and transformers. Substation types are related to the function in the network: S/S attached to power station Interconnection S/S Step-up /step-down S/S Seite 14

9 High Voltage substation Definitions The voltage level depends on the power and short-circuit capacity and the distance. Distributionnetworks are operated predominantly up to 145 kv. Power transmission systems and ring mains around urban areas operate in all voltage levels above, depending on local conditions. Over very large distances, extra high powers are also transmitted by highvoltage direct-current systems. Substations can be air-insulated (AIS) and gas-insulated (GIS) and installed indoors and outdoors. Seite 15

10 High Voltage substation Definitions The starting point for planning asubstation is its single-line diagram. This indicates: Electrical substation data Circuit configuration Number and type of feeders Location and designation of feeders Associated devices and their designation Feeders are in- and outgoing lines or cables and connection to transformers, reactors and filters, which are connected to the busbar.
