Its purpose is to provide information on how electricity is supplied, the quality and reliability of electricity supply that can be expected from an electricity network, and steps that customers should take when they lose supply or believe that the quality of their supply is below an acceptable level. This document is one in a series of three and relates to all customers but primarily to larger commercial and industrial customers having access to technical specialists to assist in dealing with electricity supply issues. ENA also has plain English publications to assist smaller industrial and commercial customers, and residential customers. This Guide is intended to provide an introduction to the issues. Where it is necessary to gain greater insight, the Guide provides references to documents such as relevant Australian and International Standards. The Guide has the following structure: Introduction This is an overview that describes the structure of the Australian electricity supply industry and the regulatory framework in which it operates. PART 1 Electricity Supply This section describes in general terms the way in which electricity is supplied to customers and the roles of generators, transmission companies, distribution companies and retailers. PART 2 Understanding your Load and Needs This section describes the key items that customers need to understand about their load when negotiating a new or upgraded connection to a Network Service Provider (NSP). PART 3 Network Reliability This section describes how despite suppliers efforts to optimise the reliability of their power systems, customer interruptions to electricity supply are inevitable and customers need to identify and manage the associated risks. 1 Under National Electricity Law, organisations that transmit and distribute electricity are referred to as Transmission Network Service Providers and Distribution Network Service Providers. The more traditional term for the latter is distributor. With the separation of retail and network functions, the new term more accurately reflects the functions that members of the ENA perform, and we have used it throughout this document. ENA Customer Guide to Electricity Supply 17 PART 4 Network Power Quality This section describes how the quality of the electricity provided to customers is not always suitable for use by all customer equipment. The major power quality disturbance types are identified and discussed and the importance of purchasing electrical equipment with sufficient levels of power quality immunity is highlighted. ENA Customer Guide to Electricity Supply 28 Introduction A Changed Industry Since the early 1990 s, there have been significant changes in the structure and regulation of the electricity industry as part of the national competition policy reforms. There has been a move away from state based vertically integrated organisations, to a clear separation between regulated network service provision and competitive retail and generation. Customer choice in the selection of their retailer has been facilitated by the introduction of laws to regulate access to distribution and transmission networks. Electricity Network Service Providers have clear targets for the level of reliability expected of their network, and there is transparency in the development of network plans and performance reporting. This information is publicly available, and adds significantly to the material available to assist you in managing your electricity needs. Electricity the Product Electricity is a unique product with a number of unusual attributes. Unlike fuels such as gas or petrol, which can be stored, almost all electricity is produced and delivered the instant you use it. It typically has to be transported a considerable distance over a highly interconnected transmission and distribution system. Because of the complexity of the system, and the fact that thousands of other customers are taking electricity from it at the same time, there are a great many factors that influence the reliability performance and power quality of the electricity supply delivered. Apart from the obvious impacts of weather and equipment performance, what you do in your premises can affect the quality of supply received by neighbouring electricity customers (and vice versa). Electricity Network Service Providers strive to provide a network that meets reasonable quality and reliability standards for all users at an affordable cost. This means that they must not only adhere to standards on their network, but also impose standards on users of electricity. Quality and Reliability of Supply Historically, the needs of an electricity network were relatively simple. Most applications centred on lighting, heating and motive power. Technological and lifestyle changes, especially the widespread use of electronics and microprocessors, have introduced a myriad of new benefits for business and the community at large and with it increased expectations relating to reliability and quality of electricity supply. Modern electronic equipment is sensitive to variations and disturbances in electricity supply that had previously been ignored. Issues include logic errors, loss of data, and unscheduled shutdowns to actual component damage. Customer loads can generate unwanted harmonic currents, flicker, voltage sags and high levels of voltage regulation in the supplying network. These effects via the network can, in turn, cause severe disturbance to other electricity customers. ENA Customer Guide to Electricity Supply 39 Customers generating excessive disturbance to the network can have adverse impacts on: the operation of other equipment in the customer s own installation. the operation of equipment in other customers installations. the operation of the electricity supply network. Environmental factors, such as storms, lightning or other forms of damage to the power supply network (eg vehicle accidents) can also generate disturbances that adversely impact on customer installations. Most variations and disturbances are caused by environmental factors, especially where supply is provided by overhead power lines. They are a normal part of the operation of a complex public supply system and electrical equipment needs to be designed to tolerate a reasonable range of variation and disturbances. No Disturbance-free Guarantee It is impossible to provide or guarantee a completely disturbance-free and uninterrupted electricity supply. The reliability and quality of supply varies in different parts of the distribution network. Individual customers may experience more or fewer than the average number and duration of interruptions and disturbances. In most cases, equipment and appliances will function as you would expect. However, if there are supply conditions that might cause problems or unsatisfactory performance, it is essential that you are aware of and respond to these factors before you make commitments to purchase equipment or make alterations to your installation. Your local electricity Network Service Provider can provide reliability and power quality information. They are continually striving to improve the overall performance of their network, but improvements may be required that specifically relate to you. The feasibility and cost of any specific improvements should be discussed with your local electricity Network Service Provider. Customer Needs Each customer s needs and requirements for electricity vary but here are some examples of how you might be affected by some typical supply factors: (a) The Quantity of electricity you require While most loads are supplied at low voltage, major industrial and commercial loads are supplied at medium and high voltage in some cases. The optimal voltage is a function not only of the size of the load, but the availability and capability of the local network to supply that load. It is important that if you are planning a new business or increases to your existing loads, that a dialogue be established with your electricity Network Service Provider. It is recommended early in your planning cycle that you determine feasible supply arrangements, and the infrastructure development required to meet your needs. ENA Customer Guide to Electricity Supply 410 (b) The Reliability of supply you require Electricity Network Service Providers have different planning standards for different parts of their network. Redundancy exists in some parts of the network that enables supply to be maintained, or restored quickly, in the event of an item of plant being taken out of service. The level of redundancy depends on the total amount of load being serviced, and the geographic locality of the load. As a general rule, most transmission and subtransmission parts of the network have redundancy, but there is often less redundancy in the medium and low voltage parts of the network. There are also other factors. For example, an underground cable supply would typically be expected to suffer less outages than an overhead power line, but may take longer to repair if there is a cable failure. In most cases, the network in the immediate vicinity of your premises is unlikely to have redundancy meaning that supply would be lost in the event of equipment failure or maintenance requiring an outage. For the majority of customers, whilst less than perfect, this is an acceptable arrangement providing the right balance of cost and reliability. In some businesses this may not be acceptable and a higher reliability standard is required. If the impact of a supply interruption is particularly high, you may need to consider having an alternative source of supply or a backup generator. You should discuss your reliability needs with your electricity Network Service Provider early in your planning cycle to determine what solutions are technically and economically feasible. (c) The Quality of supply you require When building or expanding your business with sensitive automatic electronic equipment including variable speed drives, programmable logic controllers or computers then careful consideration needs to be given to the quality of electricity supply provided. The overall quality of supply that you will receive is very much dependent on where you are connected into the network. As a general rule the quality of supply is improved by connecting to the network at higher voltage levels and by connecting to networks with lower network exposures. If your business has a continuous process or is very vulnerable to voltage sags, you should consult your Network Service Provider for advice on the suitability of particular locations. Power quality performance of networks can and do vary greatly from location to location. Are you in a rural area with long lengths of overhead line or are you in a very heavily loaded CBD area of a major city? Careful planning of installations at the design stage can vastly improve the immunity of plants and installations to voltage sags and other disturbances. Often the most economic way of providing adequate plant immunity involves the use of simple strategies that involve providing Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS), specific phase connections for control equipment and/or special switch mode power supplies to low power control devices such as computers, PLC's and motor controls. ENA Customer Guide to Electricity Supply 511 Electrical Safety The safety of people and property is of paramount importance to everyone involved in the electricity industry. Strict legislative requirements apply to electrical installations that directly impact both you, as the customer, and your electricity Network Service Provider. However, this Guide is only concerned with factors affecting the availability, reliability, and quality of electricity supply. Electrical safety information is available from a number of national and jurisdictional sources including: Electricity Network Service Providers Electricity retailers Technical and safety regulators Australian Standards and guidelines Service and Installation Rules It is imperative that you have access to resources, such as specialist engineers, consultants or electrical contractors to assist in the management of your safety, and safety obligations. Connecting to the Supply Network The vast majority of large industrial and commercial electricity users in Australia can now choose their electricity retailer. Electricity networks have a so called natural monopoly and whereas competition is practical in the generation and retailing sectors, it is not practical in transmission and distribution networks. Electricity Network Service Providers must observe state, territory and national codes, licences and statutes that specifically deal with the performance and nature of an electricity supply network. These are designed to minimise the risk of unsafe conditions, interruption to supply, and poor quality of supply, and to ensure fair and open competition in generation and retailing activities. There is a combination of state and federal regulators who monitor and enforce both the technical and commercial aspects of these codes. At the highest level, the operation of the electricity industry is governed by the National Electricity Law. As a consequence, most customers now have two contracts relating to their electricity supply: a Connection Agreement with the Network Service Provider a Retail Electricity Agreement with their retailer of choice. There is also usually a Use of System Agreement managing the relationship between the Network Service Provider and the retailer. As a consequence, the relationship is often referred to as a triangular contractual arrangement. ENA Customer Guide to Electricity Supply 612 Your electricity Network Service Provider provides connection and supply services under conditions usually contained in a Connection Agreement. If you wish to connect an installation to a distribution network, you must first complete an application for connection and provide sufficient detail of the proposed installation to enable the Network Service Provider to determine its suitability for connection. In parallel, you should select an electricity retailer. Your installation must comply with relevant Australian legislation and standards, the Network Service Provider s Service and Installation Rules, and other connection policy documents specific to the Network Service Provider such as supply quality standards. These standards require your installation to be capable of coping with the routine variations and interruptions to supply discussed in this Guide. Ensuring Customer Satisfaction Electricity Network Service Providers are continually striving to improve the reliability and quality of electricity delivered from their network. In many instances, their licence conditions now set specific targets for improvement in reliability. The factors affecting electricity supply to individual customers vary widely from place to place. Installations need to be designed to take into account local supply conditions. Your electricity Network Service Provider will offer assistance, including providing information about local factors, to help you make appropriate decisions. Early advice from your Network Service Provider can help minimise any future concerns or problems. This guideline provides background information to help with this communication. Once you are connected to the network, your electricity Network Service Provider is committed to assisting you operate in a safe and effective manner. If you suspect a power supply quality problem from outside your installation, you should contact your Network Service Provider. In most cases, your Network Service Provider will be able to help you determine whether the problem is being experienced by other customers as well or is confined to your installation. If other customers are similarly affected, the problem could be transferred from some other installation or the source could be the supply system itself. If the problem is confined to your installation, further investigation will most likely be needed within your premises. Also, the customer may have to submit a safety plan. Many Network Service Providers offer power quality services to identify problems and provide solutions. You may also need to seek expert advice and assistance from equipment suppliers, engineering consultants and/or electrical contractors. ENA Customer Guide to Electricity Supply 713 PART 1: Electricity Supply The Electricity Supply System ENA Customer Guide to Electricity Supply 814 Electricity Supply The physical process of electricity supply is divided into three broad stages; generation, transmission, and distribution. In addition to the physical aspects, there is a commercial overlay involving the trading of electricity between generators and retailers or, in some circumstances, generators and large electricity users. Generation Most electricity is generated at large scale conventional power stations from various natural resources such as coal, natural gas and hydro. In most of Australia, generators can competitively bid to have their output dispatched into a pool such as the National Electricity Market in the eastern and southern states, or the Wholesale Electricity Market in Western Australia. These markets are administered by an independent market operator. In addition to conventional large scale generators, there is increasing use of distributed generation within networks. These generators are typically cogeneration plants located in factories producing and utilising steam, coal seam methane installations associated with coal mining, wind farms, biogas and solar installations. Transmission Many large conventional power stations are located at or close to the fuel resource which is often a considerable distance from where the major demand for electricity is located. Large quantities of electricity are therefore transported over the transmission network to major substations located in key areas. Transmission lines typically operate at voltages ranging from 132kV to 500kV, and may link states. High voltages are needed for the economic transport of large quantities of electricity but are far too high for most customers to use. Terminal or Bulk Supply Substations transform these voltages to lower voltages used in the subtransmission and distribution network. These substations also contain switchgear to control the flow of electricity. Distribution Distribution is a generic term that usually encompasses both subtransmission and distribution functions. Voltages such as 132kV, 66kV and 33kV are commonly used in the subtransmission system to distribute large blocks of power. Zone substations then transform from subtransmission voltages to medium voltages (MV) such as 22kV or 11kV. Many large industrial and, to a lesser extent, commercial customers take supply at these voltages. Subtransmission and medium voltage feeders could be overhead power lines or underground cables. Distribution transformers transform high voltage to the low voltage (230/400V) that is reticulated for general use within households, shops, businesses, factories, hospitals, schools and other smaller customer installations. ENA Customer Guide to Electricity Supply 915 Retail Retailers aggregate the electricity requirements of large numbers of customers and purchase energy from the wholesale market. Due to changes in supply and demand, the price in the wholesale market changes frequently. Retailers enter into contracts with generators to enable stable prices to be offered to customers. As well as performing this function, retailers co-ordinate the billing of network service and market administration charges, and provide a single point of contact for the majority of issues faced by customers. Retailers and Network Service Providers work closely together to ensure that any technical or commercial issues customers may have are dealt with efficiently and promptly. System Operation The transmission and distribution systems are provided with protection systems that serve two purposes: (a) (b) Under normal conditions, they maintain the continuity of the network and allow continuity of supply for all customers. Under fault conditions, they can disconnect supply to certain sections of the network to assist in isolating or removing faults to minimise risks to the safety of people or equipment, and to limit the number of customers affected by the fault. With the exception of rural localities, the transmission and subtransmission distribution systems generally have a degree of interconnection. This means that supply can usually be provided from more than one source. At the medium voltage distribution level, there is a mixture of so-called ring and radial systems. Ring systems have more than one source of supply, and after a fault, supply can be restored to most affected customers by switching the network without the need to be affected by the repairs. Radial systems have a single source of supply, and after a fault, usually require lengthy repairs to be effected before supply can be restored. Classifying Networks At any point throughout the supply chain, from large generators through the transmission and distribution systems to the customer s own installation, there are factors that can influence the amount of power available, reliability and quality of supply. The nature of the supply system and the location of the customer both have a significant effect on quality, reliability and supply restoration times. Overhead power lines are a widely used and economic way of transmitting and distributing electricity. They are vulnerable to a variety of environmental and third party influences such as storms, lightning strikes, vandalism, and vehicle accidents. If network faults or damage occur, the problems can usually be found by visual inspection and repaired reasonably quickly. ENA Customer Guide to Electricity Supply 1016 Underground cables are considerably more expensive than overhead lines and are often installed for aesthetic, load density or safety reasons (eg avoiding the need to have overhead power lines close to multi-storey buildings in city streets). They are more complicated in construction but are also protected from most of the problems encountered by overhead power lines. However, if they are damaged or develop faults, the time taken to locate problems and carry out repairs can be much greater. There are three broad location classifications (these areas may be defined in more specific terms by your jurisdictional electricity regulator): Central Business Districts (CBD) The central business district and commercial centres of major cities will have the highest reliability because of the greater use of interconnected underground distribution, both medium and low voltage, and the relatively shorter lengths of these lines, reducing their exposure to environmental problems. These areas can usually be supplied from a number of different substations and with remotely controlled switchgear. This system can achieve higher levels supply continuity and better than average restoration times in the event of failures. Urban The residential and commercial areas in cities and major towns will have a mixture of medium voltage underground cables and overhead power lines. These areas are often supplied from an interconnected network with at least one alternative source of supply. In the event of a failure, line crews can usually restore supply to most customers by field switching within an hour or two. After network faults there will often be a small set of customers that cannot have their electricity supply restored until repairs are completed. Rural Areas outside the CBD and urban areas, such as rural regions and associated small towns, are usually supplied by overhead medium voltage lines with limited or no interconnections to alternative sources of supply. Lines are categorised as Short Rural where lines are up to 200 km long, and Long Rural where lines may be many hundreds of kilometres in length. As a general rule, as line length increases, the incidence of faults increases due to greater exposure to weather, vegetation and other environmental factors that cause faults and disruptions. Repairs can also take longer because of the time involved for response crews to travel and then find and repair the damaged parts of the system. Isolated Networks The terms CBD, Urban and Rural apply to the vast majority of customers connected to large interconnected networks. In some remote locations, a small network connected to one or more generators (usually a diesel generator at a single locality), may be used to supply a community or group of communities. These are commonly termed Isolated Networks. ENA Customer Guide to Electricity Supply 1117 PART 2: Understanding your Load and Needs To gain the greatest benefits from your electricity supply, it is essential that you have a thorough understanding of your electrical load. An electricity supply requires a partnership that matches the requirements of electricity customers with the capability of the supplying network. Due to geographic and economic factors, the capability of networks varies substantially from location to location. When negotiating connection arrangements it is essential that you have a detailed understanding of your load and business requirements so that satisfactory network performance can be provided at the lowest possible costs. Some customer installations are simply unsuited to connection to a network in some locations because reliability and power quality can be predicted by your Network Service Provider to be unsuitable for some customer applications. For example, it simply may not be feasible to construct an industrial plant incorporating sensitive continuous processes in some rural or remote areas and achieve long term satisfactory operation. Some proposed new or upgraded customer connections are unsuitable because the customer s load may interfere with the network and cause disruption to other customers. In fact, every customer connected to a network has an impact on the supply to all other customers. The role of the Network Service Provider is to manage these impacts to ensure that standards of supply are maintained for the benefit of all customers. This is why a Network Service Provider may place strict supply conditions on your electrical load and installation. Electricity customers need to balance the network connection costs for an extra high reliability/power quality supply against the costs of installing more power quality disturbance immune equipment and systems. It is the aim of each Network Service Provider to assist customers in achieving a suitable balance that will satisfy the customer s long term needs. When negotiating your new or upgraded connection to the network with your Network Service Provider, as a minimum you need to have a thorough understanding of your installation s load and operating requirements including the following: 1. Maximum demand 2. Motor starting 3. Nominal supply voltage 4. Designing and preparing for power interruptions 5. Immunity to power quality disturbances 6. Load fluctuations and flicker 7. Harmonic emissions into the network 8. Power factor correction 9. In plant generation ENA Customer Guide to Electricity Supply 1218 You may need to seek expert advice and assistance on these issues from consulting engineers, electrical contractors and/or equipment suppliers. Maximum Demand The load current drawn from the network by a customer s installation varies continuously throughout the day. The predicted maximum current drawn from your new or additional load is a major consideration in determining the capacity required of both your own installation and your connection to the supply network. The maximum demand of your installation is usually calculated by your electrical contractor or consulting engineer. Basically it involves adding up the contributions of individual pieces of plant and equipment. This process takes into account the diversity of operation between individual pieces of equipment. A key consideration is whether or not the network has the capacity to supply your expected load. Just because you re already connected to the supply system or you can see there s a distribution network near your premises or property, you should not assume that connecting is a simple and straightforward matter. Just as you had to consider the electrical loads and current-carrying capacity of your own installation, your electricity Network Service Provider has to take similar factors into account when connecting your installation to the network. Your electricity Network Service Provider will need details of the loads you propose to connect to the system. You should be aware that alterations to the network will require lead times which will vary depending on the nature of the load and the capacity of the system. The capacity of the existing network may already be close to its maximum. To connect your installation, your Network Service Provider may have to increase the capacity of the network. The work involved could range from replacing the distribution transformer with a larger one to rebuilding the distribution system with larger conductors, transformers and switchgear. In most cases, connection will be straightforward and it will just be a matter of making application, providing the necessary details about what you require, and allowing sufficient time for the connection to take place. In some cases, depending on the extent of changes to the network needed to supply your installation, you may be required to contribute towards the capital cost. Discussion Points with your Consultant or Network Service Provider What is your maximum demand and load pattern? What are your future capacity needs and expansion plans? What are the applicable network service charges? Does the existing supply network have the capacity to supply your load? Is a network augmentation required? Are there any demand management opportunities to reduce the maximum demand? ENA Customer Guide to Electricity Supply 1319 Demand management is the management of the loads within your installation to meet objectives for maximum and average demand. Peak Load Reduction by Load Management The difference between maximum and average loads can have a significant impact on the currentcarrying capacity required. In the example above, both installations take the same amount of electrical energy from the supply but the one on the left has to have twice the current-carrying capacity. By using demand management techniques to even out the demand for electricity and, in particular, to reduce peak loads, the required capacity has been halved. This means either a saving in cost by installing a smaller cable in the first place or having spare capacity for expansion or load growth without the expense or disruption of replacing existing cables. Electricity tariffs for large customers commonly include a charge based on maximum demand. This may be measured in kilowatts (kw) or kilovolt amps (kva) and is typically based on the highest demand over a 15 or 30 minute average during the month. Demand charges may also vary on a seasonal basis. Demand management can lead to significant savings on these forms of tariff. Nominal Supply Voltage The supply voltage is the voltage existing at any time, from phase to neutral or phase to phase, at your installation terminals. The Nominal Supply voltage is the voltage by which a system is designated or identified and to which certain operating characteristics are referenced. Most Australian electricity customers take supply from their Network Service Provider at low voltage. The nominal voltage for the low voltage system is 230 volts phase-to-neutral and 400 volts phase-to-phase. Depending on your load and availability in your area you may have an option to take one of supply options below. 230V 1-phase 2 wire 230V/400V 2-phase 3 wire 230V/400V 3-phase 4 wire 230V/460V 2 x 1-phase 3 wire If your load is too large for a low voltage supply or you wish to take advantage of the reliability and power quality benefits of supply at higher voltages then supply options need to be discussed with your Network Service Provider. Common medium and high voltage nominal voltage levels used in Australia are 11kV, 12.7kV, 19.1kV, 22kV, 33kV, 66kV, 132kV, 220kV, 330kV and 500kV. ENA Customer Guide to Electricity Supply 1420 Most industrial/commercial customers take supply at low voltage. Some large customers take supply at medium voltage from the distribution network. A few very large customers take supply at subtransmission or transmission voltages. Supply can be single or three phase. Single phase is restricted to very small loads. The supply consists of two wires an active and a neutral. Larger industrial and commercial installations have a three phase supply consisting of three active wires and a neutral. The big advantage with three phase systems is that large motors are significantly smaller, more efficient, and run more efficiently compared to single phase motors with the same power. 1-phase and 3-phase motor connections 230 V 400 V Single phase equipment can be connected between any one of the three active phases and the common neutral. However, it is important to have loads connected equally to the three phases otherwise the supply voltages become unbalanced and voltage drops and power losses in the distribution system increase. The Steady State Voltage section in Part 4 (Network Power Quality) provides important information on low voltage system characteristics in Australian networks. Discussion Points with your Consultant or Network Service Provider Do you have any special loads like three phase motors, welders, etc. within your installation that requires a 3-phase or 2-phase supply? Is my load sufficiently large or does it have special power quality needs? I Should I consider a medium voltage or high voltage supply? If a medium voltage or high voltage supply is to be considered what network service charges will apply? What special operating and maintenance requirements will apply? What additional network connection costs will apply? ENA Customer Guide to Electricity Supply 15 View more
