Abstract

This paper introduces aspects of electrical power system with regard to the application of generator circuit breaker(GCB) in nuclear power generating stations. Technical analyses are performed for the two(2) alternatives, one(1) stand-by auxiliary transformer(SAT) vs two(2) SAT's, on system configuration in case that one(1) GCB is used. The results show that one(1) SAT system may not be justified when larger auxiliary loads are required to increase plant availibility. This paper also presents the feasibility on reliability, operability and maintainability for adopting GCB.
