Our plant unfortunately has some reasonably long motor cables (up to 800 m) for motors in the range of 30 HP to 100 HP resulting in quite large motor cables. Can anyone point me to a source for maximum cable termination sizes for IEEE 841 motors within this range? I am estimating the number of...
I am in the process of developing a preliminary power system model for a new oil platform using the power system analysis package ERACS. As part of this model I'm looking to perform motor starting studies, which will require me to model the mechanical loads being driven by motors. Can anyone...
I'm investigating methods of managing fault level on an offshore installation with approximately 3 x 40 MW gas turbine generators. One option I am considering is increasing the sub-transient reactance of the turbo-generator.
In speaking to turbo-alternator manufacturers, their basic response...
I'm looking at possible designs for the distribution system of a new offshore installation with a maximum load of 70 MW supplied by 3 x LM6000 42 MW GTs. This immediately presents a problem of available switchgear fault and normal current ratings, with typical metalclad switchgear restricted to...
