Great representation of the substation assets. There's a substation that interests me in Melbourne Australia called the Keilor Terminal Station. I don't know why these interest me but hey
Could we get another video that goes a little more in depth into how each device works, the types of each device you might see in a sub, and the maintenance on each? It would go well with this video to have a series of videos each one going more in depth on an individual device.
im working on a thesis titled a 10mva substation protection system upgrade, now they want me to evaluate the protection system first, how do i do it? any tips? pls
Just applied for a position as a substation technician (currently a network maintenance technician at a pretty prominent network company in boston mass) the operations, and mechanics within a substation intrigues me so much and I'm really hoping i land this job.....absolutely loved this detailed video...comments here are awesome as well
@@samriggio sir?.....i kid you not but literally (this morning) i received an email from the recruiter that they chose me for the position!!!!..I can't tell you how happy this makes me. I am just so extremely grateful and consumed by all types of emotions this morning and just very eager to get started on my new career. Thank you for asking sir!!
@@ThatdudeJaden thank you so much for asking, in a few days from now I'll be literally here for 2 months and so far the information is very overwhelming....but it's a 3 years apprenticeship program so I have time but it's just so eye opening and informative. I'm loving it so far and even the culture here is amazing. Like I said, just so much to learn and take in from prints, symbols, switching orders, procedures, and components....it's going to take a little to get everything down.
Thank you for these great presentations. I am new to relays and learning from guys who've been here for many years. I hear their words but have no idea what that piece of equipment looks like. I look at substation prints, and it all a foreign language. Your videos are a very necessary visual for me. You have really helped me put the pieces of the puzzle together. Thank you.
Very nice illustration of an Outdoor substation and its equipments. Would appreciate a video on Protection schemes and Busbar arrangement schemes. Thanks!
This stuff is so far over my head. Its more amazing than any other field, from vehicles to buildings. It's crazy how differently God made us, how, for some people, this comes naturally and they're super intrigued by it. I tip my non existent hat to all of you gentlemen that keep our lives lit up, cool and warm. 💙💙
Great explanation! I was hoping that you were going to explain reclosers. I would like to understand how the old oil filled mechanical ones could "count" the number of re-close attempts and vary the time all without stable power.
Power Circuit Reclosers (PCR) are smaller Power Circuit Breakers (PCB). Inside the breaker there is a mechanical counter in a open circuit that is connected to the trip recoiler. When the breaker opens. The open circuit is closed powering the counter to increase by one. It also sends to the information to the relay that controls the breaker. The old oil filled breakers function in a similar way.
Hi George. On those old oil filled reclosers, they use the oil in the recloser in a hydraulic circuit. Those reclosers trip by pulling a plunger into a coil/solenoid type setup. The coil size determines the trip amps of the recloser. When the coil has enough current running through it the plunger gets pulled down and into the coil. There is also a pump piston connected to a linkage connected to the plunger. That pump piston pumps oil though channels in the frame of the recloser mechanism. As this oil moves through the channels, it pushes up on a trip piston. That oil escapes back into the tank of the recloser through small orifices in the frame. When the recloser is operating on its fast operations, the oil escapes from two orifices. When the recloser is operating on its slow or delayed operations, the oil can only escape from one orifice as oil is constantly pushing up on the trip piston as it operates. The recloser trips and closes until enough oil has pushed up on the trip piston to make it bump a lever that will lock out the recloser and drops the yellow operating handle. That's it in a nutshell.
I landed an interview for a substation mechanic position, part of the test is they want me to remove and replace power fuses wearing switchgear. I do not know where to fund any information on this. Anybody with any advice would be appreciated
Very interesting and well done. Thank you. I am an Italian teacher and I would like to publish the same video on my YT channel but with an Italian voice speaking for my students. Can I? Of course I would mention your channel in the video description. Please let me know.
I saw Amtrak had an opening for a substation trainee so I wanted to see what it’s about, I always wanted to do something like this but I feel like it’s too much for me to understand
thanks for all these efforts. you mentioned in the description (A new video on power system protection is coming soon....) can you give us the link to that video.
Just a bit of nitpicking. Is the switch that you call a disconnector not just an isolator? Disconnectors are used to diconnect lines under load where as isolators are used to isolate under no load conditions.
What assets would you like to see in Part 2 of this video? 🤔
GREAT the technological part, for instance: IED,MU, BCU, switches and so on please
Great representation of the substation assets.
There's a substation that interests me in Melbourne Australia
called the Keilor Terminal Station.
I don't know why these interest me but hey
Whatever you choose for us, i am sure it is the best!
where is Lighting arrestor before CT?

Perfect description of my last 30 years at work on maintenance and repair of subs. Thanks.

Good explanation, simple and to the point. Doesn't try to over complicate it.
Outstanding presentation of an electric substation.

Thank you for this interesting video!
Amazing explanation, highly recommanded!
Excellent introductory video.
Any chance of a video about substation shunt-reactors?
Probably too niche, but no harm in asking.
Simple but very well explained
very useful and effective to my learning. Thanks Sir!
Спасибо большое! Изучаю вместе с вами английский язык!)

Just started a substation relay technology program. What should I expect in the workforce?
Thanks for the informative video.
Re "buzz bars" - shouldn't that be *bus* bars?
Well now, that was exciting! Thanks!
What about protection on the LV side of a transformer on large scale battery storage sites?
Awesome Video! We call it a Ground Grid here in the US.
Thank you for awesome contents
Very well presented, thank you
Thank you for your tutorial, am learning.
Great explanation!
very very nice and easy to understand, thanks
Thanks for the explanation.. very clear and great visual

intriguing and educational

Amazing 💫
thanks for all these efforts. you mentioned in the description (A new video on power system protection is coming soon....) can you give us the link to that video.
I have an overcurrent protection video posted last year and some more coming up when I have the time, thanks.
Thanks very educational and very well explained.....
Hi, I like your video. Thanks
Just a bit of nitpicking. Is the switch that you call a disconnector not just an isolator? Disconnectors are used to diconnect lines under load where as isolators are used to isolate under no load conditions.
Both are the Same thing. Disconnector and isolator.
They do isolate, there not called isolators there typically called switches, but the used to isolate certain parts of each substation
Transformer is a technologically advaced part of tranforming current into lower voltages
How can I add that to my oculus quest 2?
Nice & Easy, thank you
Voltage regulator?
Thanks you for sharing 😊
thank you
Thank you!
great summary
i really enjoyed watching your video..great explanation..thanks
Perfect
thank you for that sharing sir
i think you made a small mistake when you alluded to "oil containement" in the transformer . i hope you will recheck it out again
Containment. Hope you recheck it out again
Great video thank you
خوب
Lightning arrester is pretect equipments against overvoltage not frequency
I would have also added Cap Banks on to this
thanks you អគុណ

video nice
great
