Abstract

Upgrading equipment, especially power transformers, in a substation is an essential process in order to maintain reliability of the system and providing the customer's energy needs without fail. The National Grid Corporation of the Philippines-Biñan Substation upgraded the transformer 3 (TO3) from 100MVA to 300MVA. Substation engineers are worried to have an N-1 contingency in the substation system. Load analysis is the step used in finding the minimum transformer rating that can be fitted in the order to evaluate if the installed transformer passed the minimum rating needed. The final computed minimum kVA rating of the T03 considering the growth factor id 261MVA. Since the upgraded T03has a capacity of 300MVA, it is seen that it passed the minimum kVA rating of the T03 that can fit into the system.
