Report on Blackout at CGPL Mundra (UMPP) at 19:22 hrs, 12-March-2014
1.0
Introduction: Two separate events occurred at about 1910 and 1921 hrs on 12.03.2014 at
400 kV Chorania s/s. During the latter event there was tripping of all the CGPL running units. The
grid also experienced a large drop in frequency. Special meetings were held on 19.03.2014 and
21.03.2014 at WRLDC, Mumbai and CGPL Mundra respectively to discuss and analyze the
occurrence of 12.03.2014 in the GETCO/CGPL system. Based on the discussion and data submitted
for analysis, the following report is prepared.

3.0 EVENT DESCRIPTION
3.1 : Event-1 at 19:10:43:273 hrs on 12.03.2014 at 400 kV Chorania s/s:
Following two tripping took place at 400 kV Chorania s/s:
(i) At 19:10:43:273 hrs of 12.03.2014, 400 kV Chorania-Kosamba-1 at Chorania end
(ii) 400 kV CGPL-Chorania-I tripped at both ends.
It was reported that B-ph bushing of the Line reactor of 400 kV Chorania-Kosamba-1 at Chorania
end failed and caught fire. The fire was extinguished by the fire tender already parked in the
substation. Line tripped on reactor differential and distance protection.
It was also reported that the NGR LA of the Line reactor of 400 kV CGPL-Chorania-1 at Chorania
end failed resulting in tripping of 400 kV CGPL-Chorania-I on operation of Reactor REF protection.
There was a direct trip command sent to remote end. However reasons for failure of the NGR LA of
this line only, was not clear as other lines have also seen the same stress and LA did not fail.
Impact of Event 1: Consequent to the loss of 400 kV CGPL-Chorania-1, the power flow on 2nd
circuit of CGPL Mundra-Chorania increased from 752 MW to 980 MW. The power flow on 400 kV
CGPL-Jetpur D/C lines increased from 572 to 704 MW each circuit, while the power flow on CGPLBachau D/C lines increased from 561 MW to 692 MW on each circuit. Considering the high loading
on the 2nd ckt from CGPL to Chorania and depletion of the network, generation reduction at CGPL
Mundra was considered necessary by operators at WRLDC, SLDC-Gujarat, NLDC and CGPL
Mundra.
WRLDC in consultation with SLDC-Gujarat and CGPL Mundra was exploring the possibility of
restoring the 400 kV CGPL-Chorania-1 without Line reactor at Chorania end. Meanwhile another
event took place at the same substation, and is as given below.
3.2 : Event-2 at 19:21 hrs at 400 kV Chorania s/s:
LBB Operation of Bus-2: While the above actions were being taken up, the following lines
connected to Bus 2 of 400 kV Chornia tripped at 19:21:57.273 Hrs on operation of LBB
protection of bus-2 at Chorania having Double Main and Transfer Switching Scheme. Following
lines tripped due to operation of LBB.
a. 400 kV Chorania-Asoj
b. 400 kV Chorania-Ranchodpura (Vadavi)-2

c. 400 kV Chorania-CGPL-2
d. 400/220 kV ICT-2 at Chorania
e. 400 kV Chorania-Amreli S/C
The analysis of the protections and operation of LBB is discussed in detail in Annex-2. The
outcome of the analysis for operation of LBB and trippings on power swing is as follows:
During the fire on the “B” phase of the line reactor of this line, it is suspected that the fire might
have spread to control cables and the CT wiring of Main-I or the Bushing CT wires of the reactor
and A.C. Auxiliary supply cables might have got damaged. Due to this the A.C supply might
have leaked into the CT cables of either Main-II DPS or the reactor bushing CTs (used for line
current compensation) and this leakage current of magnitude more than 200mA was extended to
the Main-II DPS relay. The master trip relay after the earlier tripping of the line breaker was not
resetted. This resulted in satisfying the conditions for stuck breaker condition and operation of
LBB relay of this line.
Tripping on Power Swing: Subsequently the following additional lines tripped at 19:21:58.150
hrs in Zone-1, on Power Swing
a. 400 kV Bachau-CGPL-1 at Bhachau end in Z-1.
b. 400 kV Bachau-CGPL-2 at Bhachau end in Z-1.
c. 400 kV Jetpur-CGPL-1 at Jetpur end in Z-1.
d. 400 kV Jetpur-CGPL-2 at Jetpur end in Z-1.
e. 400 kV Bachau-Ranchodpura-1 tripped at Bhachau end in Z-1.
f. 220kV Bhachau-Lalpar & Bhachau-Morbi lines at Bhachau end in Z-1.
WRLDC have observed that angular separation between CGPL bus with respect to Bhadrawati
was seen to sharply increase from 17° (during steady state) to 180° followed by loss of
synchronism.
However the subtle points to note on the above observation and the Zone-1 power swing seen by
the Distance Protection Scheme (DPS) relays on lines at the adjacent buses connected to CGPL,
are as follows:
(i)
A DPS relay would sense Zone-1 fault during a power swing only if the electrical centre
of the two buses connected through a line moves into the line section. This is only
possible if the angular separation between these two adjacent buses connected through the
line moves towards 180°.
Report on Blackout at CGPL Mundra (UMPP) at 19:22 hrs, 12-March-2014.
Page 3
(ii)
Since the lines emanating from CGPL have tripped in Zone-1 power swing it implies that
the angular separation between the CGPL bus and the adjacent buses was approaching
180° and due to this the electrical centre between these buses and CGPL was moving
within these line sections. Hence the lines tripped on Z-1 power swing in about 1 second
after event 2.
(iii)
The observation of angular difference between CGPL and Bhadravati at the point when
these lines tripped in Z-1 power swing is estimated to around 72° after one second (the
oscillations of the order of 0.2hz was observed between the CGPL & Bhadravati PMU
plot) and would reach to 180° after about 2.5 seconds. However this angular separation
between far way buses is of no signification in the transient analysis.
3.3 : This led to non availability of evacuation from CGPL leading all units at CGPL to run on
house load, except Unit#40 which tripped on SPS operation. After 5-6 mins of operation of
Unit#10, Unit#20, Unit#30 & Unit#50 on house load, all these units were hand tripped,
except Unit#10 which tripped on HP exhaust hood temp very high. The frequency of the
islanded system of CGPL Mundra touched to 52.885 Hz (at 19:21:59:200) and the governor
action immediately controlled the frequency. The house load operation could continue only
for about six minutes after which there was a blackout at CGPL.
With this CGPL was completely out of the grid and collapsed.
3.4 : Impact of event-2 and Actions taken by WRLDC/SLDC:
The frequency in the grid rapidly declined and touched 49.285 Hz within 3 minutes due to
sudden deficit of 4050 MW. Following actions were immediately by WRLDC taken for system
security:
a. Koyna
hydro,
SSP
hydro
and
thermal
stations
of
NTPC
(Kawas/Gandhar/Korba/Vindhyachal/Sipat), DGEN (infirm injection) were directed
to maximize generation at all the units on bar. One additional units of SSP hydro was
also synchronized.
b. Power order on HVDC Mundra Mahendragarh Bipole was reduced from 2000 MW to
1500 MW to control the critical loading on 400 kV SSP-Kasor, SSP-Asoj and IndoreAsoj.
Report on Blackout at CGPL Mundra (UMPP) at 19:22 hrs, 12-March-2014.
Page 4
c. Power flow on HVDC Chandrapur-Padghe Bipole reduced from 900 MW to 600 MW
to control critical loading on 400 kV Boisar-Vapi line
The frequency was brought above 49.8 Hz within 10 minutes of the incident and it was
brought within the IEGC band in the next 25 minutes.
3.5 : Restoration of CGPL:
Power supply to CGPL Mundra was extended from 400 kV Jetpur line at 19:37 hrs
3.6 : Load Relief during Event-2:
The reported load shedding due to operation of d/dt relay as reported by the respective
utilities is as under:
4.0 : SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATIONS :
The analysis of the occurrence has revealed several issues that need to be addressed for preventing
reoccurrence of such events and for enhancing system security. The summary along with
recommendations is as under:
i)
Failure of reactor of 400kV Chorania-Kosamba line: Failure of “B” phase reactor
of 400kV Chorania-Kosamba line No. 1 to be taken up with the manufacturer by
GETCO and the report of the OEM to be shared in the next PCM of WRPC.
ii)
Failure of NGR LA of 400kV CGPL-Chorania line 1 : Regarding the matter of
failure of NGR LA of CGL make, POWERGRID shall take up the same with OEM
and share the report in the PCM.
Report on Blackout at CGPL Mundra (UMPP) at 19:22 hrs, 12-March-2014.
Page 5
iii)
Operation of LBB of 400kV Chorania-Kosamba line No. 1: It is recommended that
during fire, all the control wiring fuses of the control panel of the affected
element/bay should be removed immediately so as to avoid leakages in damaged
cable cores. The immediate resetting of the tripped relays is not possible under such
circumstances, since the S/S officials are generally busy controlling the fire.
iv)
Load Relief Related: It was observed that the rate of fall of frequency at different
locations in the grid depends on the stiffness of the point w.r.t. to the point of
disturbance in the grid (where generation loss had occurred). Therefore the rate of fall
of frequency in MP, Chattisgarh which are electrically far away from Mundra would
be lesser than in Gujarat or Maharashtra. It was therefore recommended that since
UMPPs and large generating stations are located in Gujarat and Chattisgarh States
more quantum of load shedding should be wired up through df/dt relays in Gujarat
and Chattisgarh State. Further the rate of df/dt in Gujarat system for the first stage is
set at 0.2Hz/sec, therefore Gujarat should explore to set the first stage at 0.1Hz/sec.
These may be discussed in the next PCM.
v)
Governor response of generators in NEW Grid :
The loss of 4000 MW at 19:22 hrs during the evening peak hours led to drop in
frequency of 0.67 Hz. Considering the load loss of 1100 MW, the system inertia
comes out to be around 4300 MW/Hz without considering the frequency dependence
of load and governor response. Thus the automatic response through FGMO/RGMO
from rest of the generators on bar in the grid was inadequate.
It was recommended that all generating units mandated for RGMO/FGMO in Western
Region should furnish plots of Active power vs frequency available/recorded during
the period 1920 to 1930 hrs of 12.03.2014 at the generating stations to WRLDC and
WRPC by 22.04.2014. Necessary co-ordination may be done by WRLDC for getting
the above data and a white paper on the same shall be published by WRLDC. Also
Utilities shall submit complete details of governor setting of the generating units
mandated for RGMO/FGMO to WRLDC.
WRLDC shall compile this data for
ascertaining the frequency response of the generators during either the frequency rise
or frequency fall cases.
vi)
Tripping of lines in Z-1 power swing: After the operation of LBB protection the
evacuation from CGPL got depleted and resulted in setting up of power swings in the
system. The lines connected to CGPL Mundra subsequently tripped in Z-1 due to the
power swing, before the generators at CGPL Mundra fell out of synchronism (even
Report on Blackout at CGPL Mundra (UMPP) at 19:22 hrs, 12-March-2014.
Page 6
before the first pole slip) with the rest of the grid generators. As per the existing
protection philosophy power swings entering in Z-2 & Z-3 are blocked and power
swings entering in Z-1 of DPS are allowed to trip the line due to the severe nature of
power swings entering in the Zone-1. Therefore Z-1 philosophy adopted for tripping
the lines in Z-1, connected to the generating stations and lines nearby the vicinity of
generating stations which are supposed to power swings needs to be discussed in the
PCM. Under such circumstances the possibility of using out of step protection relay as
an alternative to tripping a line in Z-1 power swing requires to be deliberated in the
PCM. This incidentally has also been raised by the Hon’ble commission CERC in its
order on the grid disturbances of 30th & 31st July 2012.
vii)
Dynamic Compensation: There is a need to simulate the events and run transient
stability studies to see the anticipated governor response, df/dt enhancement and also
suggest measures to improve the dynamic stability. For this the event-2 data of the
grid requires to be collected, simulated and examined from transient stability point of
view. It is proposed that this may be studied by academic consultant like IIT-B. Also
it is desirable that WR Study Committee members avail academic training to be able
to conduct such special studies frequently. For the WR part, WRLDC shall collect the
governor response and submit white paper as mentioned above. However since the
entire grid is now synchronous, the governor response in other regions also desires to
be studied. For which WRLDC may take up with NLDC. Hence WRLDC may also
collect the snapshots of outside WR (by co-ordinating with NLDC) of the system
conditions. The incident data of PMUs and SCADA data, and other relevant data like
all India data along with governor response can then be taken up for simulation.
viii)
GPS Synchronization: The time stampings on the DRs generated during the above
occurrence did not coincide and there was quite a large time drift. GPS time
synchronization of the relays shall be carried out. The methodology/procedure for
carrying out the synchronization may be discussed in the next PCM.
ix)
Restoration of 400kV Bhachau (PG)-Ranchodpura line No.2: This being
important line, efforts should have been made to restore the same at the earliest. It
was informed by POWERGRID that permission was not given by WRLDC for test
charging the line after it tripped on transient fault. WRLDC informed that since the
line tripped on R-B (line to line) fault, therefore permission for second attempt of
charging the line was not granted. It was observed that the line rarely trips for
permanent nature of phase to phase involving R & B phases (R & B phase lines are

physically located at the either side of the tower). While the concern of WRLDC was
noted, system operator should accept the fact that the declaration of healthiness of the
transmission element is the prerogative of the utility responsible for maintaining that
element. Hence priority should be given to charging the line, and not insist on getting
DR etc. DR and other analysis are post-facto in nature, if the past record/experience of
the utility is satisfactory. This would help earlier restoration of the element, since the
utility is the best judge of real conditions existing in the field.
x)
400kV Chorania-Kosamba line No. 1 line charging: The line was kept in charged
condition, without informing WRLDC resulting in confusion regarding failure of
reactor, as it took some time to ascertain that the line reactor of this line had failed.
Simultaneously, 400kV CGPL-Chorania line 1 also tripped on reactor REF resulting
in confusion as to which line reactor has caught fire. Charging any element which has
bearing on the regional system shall be informed to WRLDC before charging the
element.
xi)
PMU Wiring up at CGPL: The PMU data was not sufficient to analyze the
occurrence. Instead of wiring the current input of Unit#40 of the CGPL, line currents
of Bhachau lines would have been more useful.
xii)
Proposed Changes in SPS at CGPL Mundra :
Following changes at Sr.No.1 in the approved SPS table (enclosed at Annexure-III)
were recommended for immediate implementation, after due deliberations and were
agreeable to all the concerned.
As regards to revision in the existing SPS at CGPL, after detail deliberations,
following modifications in the existing SPS were suggested;
The existing SPS may be replaced by
Option-A :
i)
If line loading on any line exceeds 900MW back down generation at CGPL.
ii)
If line loading on any line exceeds 1200MW trip one unit at CGPL.
Option-B :
i)
For loss of any two lines trip one unit at CGPL.
ii)
For further loss of any two lines trip another unit at CGPL.
Report on Blackout at CGPL Mundra (UMPP) at 19:22 hrs, 12-March-2014.
Page 8
CGPL representative requested that they are in agreement for modification of the
conditions in view of the threat to grid and also this would help survival of their units.
However, the scheme should be validated through studies and tripping of units
unnecessarily should be avoided, since tripping of large units not only impacts the
grid but also the units are stressed. Also the utilities responsible for maintaining the
transmission system for evacuation should maintain the transmission lines, so that
such that multiple tripping of lines do not occur. CGPL further proposed that
generation backing down would be carried out to the tune of 800MW, if any one line
out of the six outlet lines trips, further generation backing down of 800MW would be
carried out if second line tripes subsequently. WRLDC was of the view that backing
down is a slow process and under the circumstances quick actions are required and
therefore option-A & option-B are the most appropriate options to deal with the
situation. SLDC GETCO also expressed similar views.
It was therefore
recommended that CGPL would review the above options and send their comments at
the earliest for implementation of Option-A or Option-B as given above.
xiii)
Interim Scheme for immediate implementation:
PGCIL to extend signals of MW or tripping, preferably MW, to CGPL, so that the
existing scheme may be modified as per enclosed Annexure-3.

Analysis of DR / EL reports and operation of protection systems :
None of the DR/EL were seen to be time synchronized with GPS. However the inferences drawn
from the reports are as under:
a)
Event 1: 400kV Chorania-Kosamba line No.1 :
From Chorania end D.R it was observed that there was operation of reactor differential
protection and line distance protection for 400kV Chorania-Kosamba line at Chorania end
on failure of “B”phase reactor of the line. Both the protections sensed the fault correctly
and tripped the breaker at Chorania end and also direct trip command was sent to
Kosamba end.
b)
Event 1: 400kV Mundra-Chorania line-1 :
From Chorania end D.R it was observed that there was operation of REF protection of
reactor and fault current in neutral was 0.24 A. The operation of REF protection had
tripped the breaker at Chorania end and also sent direct trip command to Mundra end.
The operation of the REF protection at Chorania end on failure of NGR LA of the line
reactor is in order. Reason for failure of NGR LA is being studied by PGCIL.
c)
Event 2: 400kV Chorania-Vadavi line-2, 400kV Chorania-Amreli line, 400kV ChoraniaMundra-2 line :
Annexure-II to the Report on Blackout at CGPL Mundra (UMPP) at 19:22 hrs, 12-March-2014.
Page 2
From D.R of Chorania end it was observed that the breakers of above lines tripped and
the triggering event was bus bar protection relay. However no fault in system was
observed through the disturbance record.
d)
400kV Chorania S/S Bus-II LBB operation : The Master trip relay of 400kV ChoraniaKosamba line No. 1, was not resetted during the tripping of the line due to “B” phase line
reactor failure. As per the DR of the event current of sufficient magnitude (>200mA) was
seen flowing in the “B” phase of the Main-II relay. Therefore for operation of LBB of this
line, both the conditions of stuck breaker protection i.e. Master trip operated and line
current more than 200mA got satisfied and the relay operated correctly. Following
elements connected to Bus-2 tripped 400/220kV, 500MVA ICT-2, 400kV Ranchodpura2, 400kV Asoj line No.2, 400kV, 50MVAR Bus reactor & 400kV Amreli.
During the fire on the “B” phase of the line reactor of this line, it is suspected that the fire
might have spread to control cables and the CT wiring of Main-I or the Bushing CT wires
of the reactor and A.C. Auxiliary supply cables might have got damaged. Due to this the
A.C supply might have leaked into the CT cables of either Main-II DPS or the reactor
bushing CTs (used for line current compensation) and this leakage current of magnitude
more than 200mA was extended to the Main-II DPS relay. The master trip relay after the
earlier tripping of the line breaker was not resetted. This resulted in satisfying the
conditions for stuck breaker condition and operation of LBB relay of this line.
e)
400kV Mundra-Jetpur line-1 & 2 :
From Jetpur end D.R it was observed that the lines tripped due to operation of DPS in Z1
and power swing detection from Jetpur end. The gradual fall of voltage and increase of
current seen by the relay suggests that the power swing has entered in Z-1.
f)
400kV Mundra-Bachau line-1&2 :
From Bachau end D.R it was observed that breakers tripped due to operation of DPS in
Z1 and power swing detection from Bachau end. The gradual fall of voltage and increase
of current seen by the relay suggests that the power swing has entered in Z-1.
g)
220kV Bhachau-Lalpar & Bhachau-Morbi lines:
Annexure-II to the Report on Blackout at CGPL Mundra (UMPP) at 19:22 hrs, 12-March-2014.
Page 3
Both these 220kV lines tripped in Z1 and power swing detection from Bhachau end. The
gradual fall of voltage and increase of current seen by the relay suggests that the power
swing has entered in Z-1.
From the DRs of lines at e), f) & g), as above, it was observed that there was a gradual fall in voltage
from 1 pu to around 0.40-0.50 pu and a gradual increase in current, clearly indicating a severe power
swing between the CGPL generators and other generators in the grid. Further all these lines tripped
on entering of power swing in Z1 of the respective lines from opposite end of CGPL. Therefore
tripping of lines at e), f) & g), as above in Z-1 and power swing detection were in order.
The offline simulation studies carried out by WRLDC for the above event also suggests that the
power swing had entered in Z1 settings of DPS of the above lines.
The DRs and the ELs are enclosed at Annexure-IV.
Analysis of PMU data :
The PMU plots are enclosed at Annexure-V
a. The angular separation between CGPL bus with respect to Bhadrawati is seen to sharply
increase from 17 degrees to 180 degrees followed by loss of synchronism.
b. There was around 30 % voltage drop at CGPL Mundra within 1 sec 320 ms of loss of both
circuits of CGPL Mundra-Chorania followed by sudden rise in voltage. Reactive power of
CGPL generating units changed from -42 MVAR (lead) to 550 MVAR (lag) indicating fast
AVR action
c. Generation at CGPL Mundra is observed to reduce by around 100 MW after loss of both
circuits of 400 kV CGPL Mundra-Chorania D/C
d. The frequency of the 400 kV CGPL bus (islanded) touched 52.885 Hz after loss of
synchronism with the grid within 2 seconds. The second peak of frequency occurring after
7.400 seconds was within 50.5 Hz, possibly due to fast governor action.
Annexure-II to the Report on Blackout at CGPL Mundra (UMPP) at 19:22 hrs, 12-March-2014.
