10. Section 10
Monitoring of Generation and Drawal10.1Introduction. - The monitoring by SLDC of SSGS, IPPs and REGs output and active and reactive reserve capacity is important to evaluate the performance of generation plants.The monitoring of scheduled Drawal is important to ensure that STU, Other transmission licensees and Discoms contribute towards improving system performance, and observe Grid discipline.10.2Objective. - The objective of this section is to define the responsibilities of all SSGS, IPPs' and REGs in the monitoring of Generating Unit reliability and performance, and STU's/Discoms' compliance with the scheduled Drawal to assist SLDC in managing voltage and frequency.10.3Monitoring Procedure10.3.1For effective operation of the State Transmission System, it is important that a SSGS declared availability is realistic and that any departures are continually invariably fed back to the Generator to help effect improvement.10.3.2SLDC shall continuously monitor Generating Unit outputs and Bus voltages. More stringent monitoring may be performed at any time when there is reason to believe that a SSGS and IPPs declared availability may not match the actual availability or declared output does not match the actual output.10.3.3SLDC can ask for putting a generating station to demonstrate the declared availability by instructing the generating station to come up to the declared availability within time specified by generators.10.3.4SLDC shall inform a SSGS and IPPs, in writing, if the continual monitoring demonstrates an apparent persistent or material mismatch between the dispatch instructions and the Generating Unit output or breach of the Connection Conditions. Continued discrepancies shall be resolved by the Grid Code Review Committee with a view to either improve performance in future, providing more realistic declarations or initiate appropriate actions for any breach of Connectivity Conditions.10.3.5SSGS (excluding CPPs), IPPs and Renewable Energy Generators (REGs) shall provide to SLDC hourly generation summation outputs whenever telemetry data is not available through SCADA/RTU equipment. Clops shall provide to SLDC hourly export/import MW and MVAr.10.3.6The SSGS, IPPs and REGs shall provide any other logged readings that SLDC may reasonably require, for monitoring and reporting purposes.10.4Generating Unit Tippings10.4.1SSGS (excluding CPPs) and IPPs shall promptly inform the tripping of a Generating Unit, with reasons, to SLDC in accordance with the operational Event/Accident Reporting section. SLDC shall keep a written log of all such tripping, including the reasons with a view to demonstrating the effect on system performance and identifying the need for remedial measures.10.4.2The operating log books/log records of the generating station and EHV sub stations shall be available for review by the SLDC. These books/records shall keep record of machine operation, outage/tripping of Transmission elements and maintenance.10.5Monitoring of Drawal10.5.1SLDC shall continuously monitor actual MW Drawal by Discoms against that scheduled by use of SCADA equipment. STU shall request WRLDC and adjacent States as appropriate to provide any additional data required to enable this monitoring to be carried out.10.5.2SLDC shall continuously monitor the actual MVAr Drawal to the extent possible. This will be used to assist in State Transmission System voltage management.10.6Data Requirement. - SSGS, IPPs and REGs shall submit data to SLDC as listed in Data Registration section, termed as Monitoring of Generation.
