About this file

This is an addendum providing PECO 13.2kV service fault duty data for SEPTA's Traction Power Substation Rehabilitation Program, specifically covering Contract 4 (Market-Ranstead-Ellen substations) and Contract 5 (Broad-Park-Loudon-Castor substations). The document consists of technical letters dated August-September 2016 from PECO Energy engineers to HNTB Corporation detailing available fault currents, X/R ratios, relay settings, and upstream over-current protection device configurations at seven SEPTA substations: 4600 Market Street (T-1670), 2075 Ranstead Street (T-8346), 946 N Front Street Ellen Sub (T-8302), 1245 Mt Vernon Street (T-8324), 2440 N. Park Avenue (T-8329), 1410 W Louden Street (T-8318), and 8355 Castor Avenue (T-8307). Each letter specifies maximum fault current guarantees of 6,300 amps symmetrical and estimated minimums of 1,200 amps symmetrical, along with calculated three-phase and single-phase fault current values at service delivery points ranging from approximately 3,257 to 4,750 symmetrical amps at 13.8kV base.

The technical data includes detailed relay specifications for both SEPTA's customer service entrance equipment and PECO's upstream protection devices, covering phase and ground overcurrent relays from manufacturers including ABB, Schweitzer (SEL), General Electric (GE), and Westinghouse. Current transformer (CT) ratios range from 100/1 to 300/1, with phase pickup settings typically between 240-960 amps primary and time delays varying from 15 to 70 cycles at 400% pickup. PECO engineers specify that designs must comply with National Electrical Code, National Electrical Safety Code, and PECO's Electric Service Requirements handbook, and disclaim responsibility for design adequacy. The document serves as critical engineering reference data for the design-build contractor completing final design from 50% specifications for the substation rehabilitation project, which must maintain continuous traction power service during the 2,035-calendar-day construction period.

Dear Mr Robert Verhelle:

As requested in your e-mail dated 8/10/2016, the following 13.2 KV fault current information is provided to assist in your electrical system studies for SEPTA Ellen Sub, 946 N Front St, Philadelphia. The maximum fault current from either PECO-Energy’s circuit is 6,300 Amps, symmetrical (X/R=26) and the minimum is estimated at 1,200 Amps, symmetrical (X/R=2). An estimation of the actual fault currents at the customer’s 13.2 KV service substation, at this time is:

13.2 KV Service Fault Duty

Dear Mr Robert Verhelle:

As requested in your e-mail dated 8/10/2016, the following 13.2 KV fault current information is provided to assist in your electrical system studies for SEPTA Castor Sub, 8355 Castor Ave Philadelphia. The maximum fault current from PECO-Energy’s circuit is 6,300 Amps, symmetrical (X/R=26) and the minimum is estimated at 1,200 Amps, symmetrical (X/R=2). An estimation of the actual fault currents at the customer’s 13.2 KV service substation, at this time is:

FOX CHASE - 138

3 PHASE Amps @ 13.8 KV 3,859 Sym Amps X/R = 5.4 1 PHASE Amps @ 13.8 KV 3,334 Sym Amps X/R = 4.1 Circuit Length 9,387 Ft

The estimated values of fault current may change at any time, without notice to the customer. The value may range from the guaranteed maximum to the estimated minimum.

This customer receives 13,200 Volt service and owns, operates, and maintains all of the 13,200 Volt service equipment and transformers. You should verify service switch, fuse, circuit breaker, and transformer ratings with the customer.

PECO’s records indicate that the customer has a service circuit breaker with relays set as follows:

T-8307 RELAY SETTNGS

3 – GECO IAC-51B PHASE OVERCURRENT RELAYS, __ – __ Time __ – __ INSTANTANEOUS – MODEL #12IAC51B4A Curve – INVERSE

320 A PRI – 100/5 CT – 16 A TAP –

1,400 A PRI – 100/5 CT – 70 A TAP – Instantaneous

NO GROUND OVERCURRENT RELAY

The next available upstream overcurrent device from the customer service relays are:PECO’s 13.2 kV Service Terminal Pole fused cutouts – S&C K Speed Positrol fuses sized at 140 Amps
