CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION TO POWER SYSTEM
NATIONAL GRID • HV electric power transmission in Peninsular Malaysia, operated and owned by TNB. • Malaysia’s electric utility companies with state grids: (a) TenagaNasionalBerhad (TNB) – National Grid (b) Sabah Electricity Sdn. Bhd. (SESB) (c) Sarawak Electricity Sdn. Bhd (SESCO) • Electricity generation stations: (a) TNB (b) Independent Power Producer (IPP) HV=high voltage
GENERATION All figures are in megawatts Source: SuruhanjayaTenega (Energy Commission) Annual Report
TRANSMISSION • 132kV, 275kV and 500kV • The 500 kV transmission system is the single largest transmission system to be ever developed in Malaysia. • The National Grid is linked via 132 kV HVAC and 300 kV HVDC interconnection to Thailand (300MW) and 230 kV submarine cables to Singapore (200MW).
DISTRIBUTION • 33 kV, 22 kV, 11 kV, 6.6 kV and 415V/240V
ENERGY POLICIES • The energy policy of Malaysia is determined by the Malaysian Government, which address issues of energy production, distribution, and consumption. • Government-linked companies PETRONAS and TNB are major players in Malaysia's energy sector. • Governmental agencies are: (a) Ministry of Energy, Green Technology and Water (b) Energy Commission (SuruhanjayaTenaga) (c) Malaysia Energy Centre (PusatTenaga Malaysia).
Importance of Electricity • Convenient energy form -It can be converted from one energy form into any other form. -Eg: bulb glows when electricity passes through it (conversion of electrical energy into light energy) • Easiness to control -An electric motor can be started or stopped by turning ON or OFF a switch. • Flexibility -It can be easily transported from one place to another by using conductor.
Importance of Electricity • Cheapness -It is much cheaper than other forms of energy and economical to use for domestic, commercial, and industrial purposes. • Cleanliness -It has no smoke, fumes, and poisonous gases. • High transmission efficiency -It can be transmitted efficiently from the centre of generation to the consumers by using transmission lines.
SUN (SOLAR) • Solar power is the conversion of sunlight into electricity, either directly using photovoltaic (PV), or indirectly using concentrated solar power (CSP). • This heat can be used to produce steam and then electrical energy with the combination of turbine-generator. • Limitations: -It is not economical because it requires a large area for the generation of small amount of electrical power. -It cannot be used in cloudy days or night.
CSP & PV The PS10 concentrates sunlight from a field of heliostats on a central tower. The PS10 concentrates sunlight from a field of heliostats on a central power. Nellis Solar Power Plant in US, one of the largest PV power plants in North America.
WIND • The conversion of wind energy into a useful form of energy. • Eg: wind turbines to make electricity, windmills for mechanical power, wind-pumps for water pumping, or sails to propel ships. • Limitations: -Unreliable because of uncertainty about wind pressure. -Power generated is quite small.

WATER • The kinetic energy of flowing water can also be used to spin turbines to generate electricity. • Limitations: -It involves high capital cost due to construction dam. -There is uncertainty about the availability of huge amount of water due to dependence on weather conditions.
WATER The Gordon Dam in Tasmania is a large hydro facility, with an installed capacity of 430 MW. Bakun Dam
FUEL • The main sources of energy are fuels, solid fuel as coal, liquid fuel as oil and gas fuel as nature gas. • When the fuels are burnt, they release the heat energy to produce mechanical energy and later electrical energy. • Limitations: -Can contribute the air and water pollution. -High maintenance cost
FUEL Montana's Natural Gas & Coal Fired Generation. Coal-fired power plants in Jewett, Texas.
NUCLEAR • Nuclear energy means the part of the energy released by fusion or fission of URANIUM generate steam which drives the steam turbine-generator to produce electricity. • Limitations: -High cost of nuclear plant -Problem of disposal of radioactive waste -Dearth of trained personnel to handle the plant.
NUCLEAR Nuclear power plants often have huge cooling towers.

Hydro electric generator • A turbine converts the energy of flowing water into mechanical energy. • A generator converts this mechanical energy into electricity according to Faraday’s Law. • When the rotor turns, it causes the field poles to move past the conductors mounted in the stator. • This, in turn, causes electricity to flow and a voltage to develop at the generator output terminals."
SCHEMATIC LAYOUT The heat is used to generate steam which drives a steam turbine connected to a generator which produces electricity.
GENERATION OF 3-PHASE EMF • 3 coils RR1, YY1 and BB1 are fixed 1200 apart. • Ends of each coil are connected to the slip rings. • The coils rotated anti-clockwise in a uniform magnetic field between the poles “N” and “S”. • EMF generation depends upon the position of the coil with respect to the magnetic field. • For the position in the above figure, EMFRR1=0V. • When moved by 900, EMFRR1= max . EMFYY1 and EMFBB1 have same magnitude as EMFRR1 but lag by 1200 and 2400 respectively.
SINGLE-LINE DIAGRAM (SLD) • SLD is a graphical representation of electrical circuit drawn using single line instead of drawing 3 separate lines for 3 phases. • Elements on the diagram do not represent the physical size or location of the electrical equipment.
