For the narrow side of the slot portion of each stator coil, provide a flat bearing surface of at least 3/8 inch. Do not cut or tailor any coil leads for any particular slot; design each coil for use in any slot. Submit the following for approval:
(a) Stator Coil Facility . The name, address and qualification of the stator coil facility.
(b) Cross-Sectional View of Stator Coils . A cross-sectional view of the stator coil in a stator slot, describing the stranding arrangement, strand dimensions, copper cross-sectional area, strand and turn insulation details (including insulating material types and thicknesses), slot fillers, wedging details, and partial discharge suppressive treatments. Include groundwall insulation materials and thickness on the drawing.
SECTION 48 13 16.00 26 Page 9
(c) Exterior Dimensions of Stator Coils . Include bending radii, dimensions of slot paint and grading tape on the drawing.
(d) Winding Diagram . A drawing that shows the three phases in different colors and RTD locations. Include a tabular listing of the winding showing the progression from line end to neutral end for all parallels with the diagram.
(e) Stator Coil Insulation System . A description of the stator coil insulation system, including processes and materials employed to meet specification requirements. Include data sheets for materials used in the coil construction.
(f) Stator Coil Connection . Drawings to show the coil external connections, pole group jumpers, and connections to circuit ring.
(g) DC I²R Copper Losses Design Calculations . Detailed design calculations demonstrating how the stator DC I²R (copper) losses are determined at 75°C. Illustrate with the calculations the composition of the various portions of winding circuit resistance, including number of coils in series, parallel connections, end connections, circuit rings, etc.
(h) Stray Load Losses Design Calculations . Detailed calculations showing how the stray load loss is determined.
(i) Maximum Temperature Rise . Maximum temperature rise of the winding above 40°C ambient at rated load, voltage, and power factor.
(j) Temperature Rise Calculations . Calculated stator winding temperature rise as indicated by embedded temperature detectors and calculated stator winding hot spot temperature at rated load, voltage, and power factor. Correlate the relationship between the operating "hot spot" temperature of the stator coils and the temperature measured by RTD demonstrated by direct measurement or recognized methods of calibration to special factory tests on a basically similar machine.
2.4.2 Coil Design
2.4.2.1 Conductor Strand Insulation
Make strands continuous (splice free) within the entire mean turn length of each coil . Insulate strands with continuous filament glass, dacron-glass fibers, or mica tape, bonded to the copper with a suitable bonding agent. Size and arrange conductor strands to minimize eddy and circulating current losses.
2.4.2.2 Turn Insulation
Insulate each turn with multiple layers of mica tape in combination with suitable backing materials. Turn insulation may be applied to individual strands in lieu of dedicated turn insulation or alternative methods for insulating turns as approved.
2.4.2.3 Ground Insulation
Provide ground insulation that consists of multiple overlapped layers of mica tapes applied continuously throughout the entire length of the coil for equal thickness. Meet the requirements of NEMA FI 1 , Table 5-4 or Table 5-6 for the mica tape. Use mica tapes constructed with a glass or
SECTION 48 13 16.00 26 Page 10 polyester fabric backing material. Apply a suitable protective covering tape over the ground insulation mica tape.
2.4.2.4 Coil Consolidation
Bond the slot and end winding portions of the assembled strands into a homogenous structure of controlled size using heat and pressure. Use strand bonding resins with properties and characteristics to prevent bond failure due to the mechanical, thermal, and chemical effects associated with thermal cycling while operating within the Class F temperature limits for which the winding is to be designed.
2.4.3 Coil Manufacturing Methods
2.4.3.1 Vacuum Pressure Impregnation (VPI)
After drying treatments, completely fill the coil insulation with a solventless epoxy resin using a vacuum pressure impregnation process.
After impregnation, cure the coil insulation system by the application of heat and pressure to the slot and end winding portions of the coils. Size slot portions to closely controlled dimensions and restrain end portions with suitable pressure devices to ensure a well-compacted insulation structure. No internal voids, as determined by the COIL DISSECTIONS in paragraph 3.4, are allowed in the insulation between the copper strands and the outer edge of the stator coils in the slot portion of the stator coils, including those coils subjected to the Voltage Endurance tests as described in paragraph 3.3, VOLTAGE ENDURANCE TESTS. Global VPI is not acceptable.
2.4.3.2 Resin Rich Tapes
Resin rich, B stage, or loaded tapes may be used in lieu of the resin impregnation process. Cure the coil insulation system by the application of heat and pressure to the slot and end winding portions of the coils.
Size slot portions to closely controlled dimensions and restrain end portions with suitable pressure devices to ensure a well-compacted insulation structure. No internal voids, as determined by the COIL DISSECTIONS in paragraph 3.4, are allowed in the insulation between the copper strands and the outer edge of the stator coils in the slot portion of the stator coils, including those subjected to the Voltage Endurance tests as described in paragraph 3.3, VOLTAGE ENDURANCE TESTS.
2.4.4 Finish and Partial Discharge Suppression Treatment
Treat slot portions of the stator coils, and a suitable distance beyond, with a semiconductive compound capable of giving positive electrical contact between the treated portions of the coil surface and the entire length of the core slot walls. Design this semiconductive treatment to eliminate surface discharge (corona) between the coil and slot surfaces and between top and bottom coil sides.
2.4.5 Graded Suppression Treatment
Apply a voltage grading semiconductive tape to the stator coil surface extending outward from the semiconductive treatment. Apply the voltage grading semiconductive tape to be of a length and resistivity to limit coil surface voltage gradients to levels well below corona onset levels under normal operating voltage stresses at normal operating temperatures.
Leave the voltage grading semiconductive treatment exposed and accessible
SECTION 48 13 16.00 26 Page 11 for inspection and possible repair. During a black-out test, as described in paragraph 3.24(d), Blackout Test, no visible corona is allowed to be produced by the winding. Treat coil surfaces beyond the discharge suppressive treatments with a finish capable of resisting exposure to dampness, oil vapors, Contractor-recommended cleaning solvents, or other materials to which the winding may be exposed during operating life.
2.4.6 Coil Test Record
Give each coil a unique identification. Keep a permanent Coil test record for each coil, whether the coil is included in the finished winding or not. Include the results of all coil tests and the slot number where each coil has been installed in this record.
2.4.7 Prototype Coils
Use entire coils for prototype stator coils, complete with all armor tapes and stress control materials applied. Omit materials normally bonded to the coil that are used to secure the coil in the slot. Manufacture prototype coils to be identical to those manufactured under paragraph 2.4, STATOR COILS.
2.4.8 Quantity
(a) Prototype Coils. Prior to manufacturing the production run coils, manufacture at least four stator coils for voltage endurance testing.
Do not manufacture the production run coils before the prototype coils are tested and dissected and the test report is approved.
(b) Production Run Coils. Following the approval of the prototype coil testing and dissection, provide 6 production run coils, plus any additional coils which may be required due to failure, for the Voltage Endurance testing specified in paragraph 3.3, VOLTAGE ENDURANCE TESTS.
Do not use or provide as spares coils subjected to Voltage Endurance testing in the final winding. Provide sufficient coils to make up 2 complete windings. Also supply the spare coils listed in paragraph
2.15, SPARE PARTS.
If the manufacturing of the first and second set of coils is separated by more than 2 months, provide another set of 6 production run coils, plus any additional coils which may be required due to failure, for the Voltage Endurance testing.
2.5 RESISTANCE TEMPERATURE DETECTORS (RTDs)
Supply for installation in the stator winding of each unit twelve (12) 4-wire resistance temperature detectors (RTDs) suitable for operation in a Class F insulation system. Provide 100 ohm platinum RTDs (±0.12% at 0°C) with a TCR of 0.00385 ohm/ohm/°C. Supply RTDs with a semiconductive coating on the body. Supply and locate RTDs in accordance with clause 7.3 of IEEE C50.12 . Replace existing RTD extension wires to the generator terminal cabinet with new extension wires. Provide new RTD terminal blocks as required to replace existing RTDs and accomodate new RTDs. Use No. 16 AWG tinned stranded copper, four-conductor cable immune to electrical noise for RTD extension wires. Use oil and water resistant cable with an overall metallic armor for mechanical protection. Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) will not be allowed. RTD leads will be solder-spliced to the RTD extension wires outside the stator slot. Do not use mechanically
SECTION 48 13 16.00 26 Page 12 spliced leads. Splices are not allowed within the slot portion. Submit RTDs, RTD Extension Cable, and terminal block Catalog Cuts .
2.6 NOT USED
