1.6.5 Protection and control<br />
<strong>Renewal</strong> Capital Expenditure<br />
TNM-GR-809-0929<br />
Issue 1.0, January 2009<br />
The protection and control systems associated with the 110 kV substation redevelopment projects<br />
comprise predominately electromechanical relays, with some static devices, both types of which<br />
need to be replaced because they are susceptible to component degradation and failure, poor<br />
performance, lack of spares and have minimal functionality.<br />
Electromechanical or static devices are obsolete technologies and require frequent maintenance and<br />
repair compared to modern microprocessor protection schemes. <strong>Transend</strong>’s asset management<br />
plans for protection and control systems recommend that:<br />
(a) protection systems that are unreliable and have exceeded their useful life be progressively<br />
replaced; and<br />
(b) where practicable and cost-effective, protection and control system replacements should be<br />
incorporated with primary asset replacement programs.<br />
1.7 CONCLUSION<br />
<strong>Transend</strong>’s revised revenue proposal is based on the following reasonable requirements for the<br />
110 kV substation redevelopment projects associated with replacement of Reyrolle OS10 circuit<br />
breakers:<br />
