A successful search for an optimal solution is also strongly linked to the ability for exchange between the various players involved in designing the various sections of a project: b the architect who defines the organization of the building according to user requirements, b the designers of different technical sections (lighting, heating, air conditioning, fluids, etc.), b the users representatives e.g. defining the process.

Definitive solution
This involves defining the general features of the electrical installation. It is based on taking account of macroscopic characteristics concerning the installation and its usage. These characteristics have an impact on the connection to the upstream network, MV circuits, the number of transformer substations, etc. At the end of this step, we have several distribution schematic diagram solutions, which are used as a starting point for the single-line diagram. The definitive choice is confirmed at the end of the step 2.

Assessment
This assessment step allows the Engineering Office to have figures as a basis for discussions with the customer and other players. According to the result of these discussions, it may be possible to loop back into step 1.

These are the main installation characteristics enabling the defining of the fundamentals and details of the electrical distribution architecture. For each of these characteristics, we supply a definition and the different categories or possible values.
3. Activity
Definition:
Main economic activity carried out on the site.
D7
Different categories:
b Single storey building, b Multi-storey building, b Multi-building site, b High-rise building.
Different categories:
b Low: the position of the electrical equipment is virtually imposed b Medium: the position of the electrical equipment is partially imposed, to the detriment of the criteria to be satisfied b High: no constraints. The position of the electrical equipment can be defined to best satisfy the criteria.
EIG_chap_D-2010.indb 7
Different categories: D8
b Minimum: this level of service reliability implies risk of interruptions related to constraints that are geographical (separate network, area distant from power production centers), technical (overhead line, poorly meshed system), or economic (insufficient maintenance, under-dimensioned generation). b Standard b Enhanced: this level of service reliability can be obtained by special measures taken to reduce the probability of interruption (underground network, strong meshing, etc.)
3.5 Maintainability
Definition:
Features input during design to limit the impact of maintenance actions on the operation of the whole or part of the installation.
Different categories:
b Minimum: the installation must be stopped to carry out maintenance operations. b Standard: maintenance operations can be carried out during installation operations, but with deteriorated performance. These operations must be preferably scheduled during periods of low activity. Example: several transformers with partial redundancy and load shedding. b Enhanced: special measures are taken to allow maintenance operations without disturbing the installation operations. Example: double-ended configuration.
Different categories:
b No flexibility: the position of loads is fixed throughout the lifecycle, due to the high constraints related to the building construction or the high weight of the supplied process. E.g.: smelting works. b Flexibility of design: the number of delivery points, the power of loads or their location are not precisely known. b Implementation flexibility: the loads can be installed after the installation is commissioned. b Operating flexibility: the position of loads will fluctuate, according to process reorganization. Examples: v industrial building: extension, splitting and changing usage v office building: splitting
EIG_chap_D-2010.indb 8
07/12/2009 11:08:19
D9
Different categories:
b Uniform distribution: the loads are generally of an average or low unit power and spread throughout the surface area or over a large area of the building (uniform density). E.g.: lighting, individual workstations b intermediate distribution: the loads are generally of medium power, placed in groups over the whole building surface area E.g.: machines for assembly, conveying, workstations, modular logistics sites b localized loads: the loads are generally high power and localized in several areas of the building (non-uniform density). E.g.: HVAC
Different categories:
b Sheddable circuit: possible to shut down at any time for an indefinite duration b Long interruption acceptable: interruption time > 3 minutes * b Short interruption acceptable: interruption time < 3 minutes * b No interruption acceptable. We can distinguish various levels of severity of an electrical power interruption, according to the possible consequences: b No notable consequence, b Loss of production, b Deterioration of the production facilities or loss of sensitive data, b Causing mortal danger. This is expressed in terms of the criticality of supplying of loads or circuits. b Non-critical: The load or the circuit can be shed at any time. E.g.: sanitary water heating circuit. b Low criticality: A power interruption causes temporary discomfort for the occupants of a building, without any financial consequences. Prolonging of the interruption beyond the critical time can cause a loss of production or lower productivity. E.g.: heating, ventilation and air conditioning circuits (HVAC). b Medium criticality A power interruption causes a short break in process or service. Prolonging of the interruption beyond a critical time can cause a deterioration of the production facilities or a cost of starting for starting back up. E.g.: refrigerated units, lifts. b High criticality Any power interruption causes mortal danger or unacceptable financial losses. E.g.: operating theatre, IT department, security department.

Different categories:
b low sensitivity: disturbances in supply voltages have very little effect on operations. E.g.: heating device. b medium sensitivity: voltage disturbances cause a notable deterioration in operations. E.g.: motors, lighting. b high sensitivity: voltage disturbances can cause operation stoppages or even the deterioration of the supplied equipment. E.g.: IT equipment. The sensitivity of circuits to disturbances determines the design of shared or dedicated power circuits. Indeed it is better to separate sensitive loads from disturbing loads. E.g.: separating lighting circuits from motor supply circuits. This choice also depends on operating features. E.g.: separate power supply of lighting circuits to enable measurement of power consumption.
Different categories
b Non disturbing: no specific precaution to take b moderate or occasional disturbance: separate power supply may be necessary in the presence of medium or high sensitivity circuits. E.g.: lighting circuit generating harmonic currents. b Very disturbing: a dedicated power circuit or ways of attenuating disturbances are essential for the correct functioning of the installation. E.g.: electrical motor with a strong start-up current, welding equipment with fluctuating current.

This is the second stage in designing of the electrical installation. During this stage we carry out the following choices are carried out: b Layout, b Centralized or decentralized distribution, b Presence of back-up generators, b Presence of uninterruptible power supplies, b Configuration of LV circuits, b Architecture combinations.
D9
7. Layout
Position of the main MV and LV equipment on the site or in the building. This layout choice is applied to the results of stage 1. Selection guide: b Place power sources as close as possible to the barycenter of power consumers, b Reduce atmospheric constraints: building dedicated premises if the layout in the workshop is too restrictive (temperature, vibrations, dust, etc.), b Placing heavy equipment (transformers, generators, etc) close to walls or main exists for ease of maintenance, A layout example is given in the following diagram (Fig. D2):

EIG_chap_D-2010.indb 19
D20
In decentralized layout, current consumers are connected to sources via a busway. Busbar trunking systems are well suited to decentralized layout, to supply many loads that are spread out, making it easy to change, move or add connections (Fig D4):
Factors in favour of centralized layout (see summary table in Fig. D5): b Installation flexibility: no, b Load distribution: localized loads (high unit power loads).

Factors in favor of decentralized layout: b Installation flexibility: "Implementation" flexibility (moving of workstations, etc), b Load distribution: uniform distribution of low unit power loads

Power supply by cables gives greater independence of circuits (lighting, power sockets, HVAC, motors, auxiliaries, security, etc), reducing the consequences of a fault from the point of view of power availability. The use of busbar trunking systems allows load power circuits to be combined and saves on conductors by taking advantage of a clustering coefficient. The choice between cable and busbar trunking, according to the clustering coefficient, allows us to find an economic optimum between investment costs, implementation costs and operating costs. These two distribution modes are often combined.
The main characteristics to consider for implementing LV back-up generator: b Sensitivity of loads to power interruption, b Availability of the public distribution network, b Other constraints (e.g.: generators compulsory in hospitals or high-vise buildings) The presence of generators can be decided to reduce the energy bill or due to the opportunity for co-generation. These two aspects are not taken into account in this guide. The presence of a back-up generator is essential if the loads cannot be shed for an indefinite duration (long interruption only acceptable) or if the utility network availability is low.

Determining the number of back-up generator units is in line with the same criteria as determining the number of transformers, as well as taking account of economic and availability considerations (redundancy, start-up reliability, maintenance facility).

ASI
Fig. D18 : Radial single feeder configuration Critical circuit Fig. D17 : Example of connection for a UPS
MLVS NO
Main possible configurations (see figures D8 to D25): b Radial single feeder configuration: This is the reference configuration and the most simple. A load is connected to only one single source. This configuration provides a minimum level of availability, since there is no redundancy in case of power source failure. b Two-pole configuration: The power supply is provided by 2 transformers, connected to the same MV line. When the transformers are close, they are generally connected in parallel to the same MLVS. b Variant: two-pole with two MLVS: In order to increase the availability in case of failure of the busbars or authorize maintenance on one of the transformers, it is possible to split the MLVS into 2 parts, with a normally open link (NO). This configuration generally requires an Automatic Transfer Switch, (ATS). b Shedable switchboard (simple disconnectable attachment): A series of shedable circuits can be connected to a dedicated switchboard. The connection to the MLVS is interrupted when needed (overload, generator operation, etc) b Interconnected switchboards: If transformers are physically distant from one another, they may be connected by a busbar trunking. A critical load can be supplied by one or other of the transformers. The availability of power is therefore improved, since the load can always be supplied in the case of failure of one of the sources. The redundancy can be: v Total: each transformer being capable of supplying all of the installation, v Partial: each transformer only being able to supply part of the installation. In this case, part of the loads must be disconnected (load-shedding) in the case of one of the transformers failing.

MLVS LV swichboard
b Ring configuration: This configuration can be considered as an extension of the configuration with interconnection between switchboards. Typically, 4 transformers connected to the same MV line, supply a ring using busbar trunking. A given load is then supplied power by several clustered transformers. This configuration is well suited to extended installations, with a high load density (in kVA/m). If all of the loads can be supplied by 3 transformers, there is total redundancy in the case of failure of one of the transformers. In fact, each busbar can be fed power by one or other of its ends. Otherwise, downgraded operation must be considered (with partial load shedding). This configuration requires special design of the protection plan in order to ensure discrimination in all of the fault circumstances. b Double-ended power supply: This configuration is implemented in cases where maximum availability is required. The principle involves having 2 independent power sources, e.g.: v 2 transformers supplied by different MV lines, v 1 transformer and 1 generator, v 1 transformer and 1 UPS. An automatic transfer switch (ATS) is used to avoid the sources being parallel connected. This configuration allows preventive and curative maintenance to be carried out on all of the electrical distribution system upstream without interrupting the power supply. b Configuration combinations: An installation can be made up of several subasssemblies with different configurations, according to requirements for the availability of the different types of load. E.g.: generator unit and UPS, choice by sectors (some sectors supplied by cables and others by busbar trunking).

8 Choice of equipment
The choice of equipment is step 3 in the design of an electrical installation. The aim of this step is to select equipment from the manufacturers catalogues. The choice of technological solutions results from the choice of architecture.
D25
Criteria to consider:
b Atmosphere, environment, b Service index, b Offer availability per country, b Utilities requirements, b Previous architecture choices. The choice of equipment is basically linked to the offer availability in the country. This criterion takes into account the availability of certain ranges of equipment or local technical support. The detailed selection of equipment is out of the scope of this document.
EIG_chap_D-2010.indb 25
07/12/2009 11:08:23
These recommendations are intended to guide the designer towards architecture upgrades which allow him to improve assessment criteria.

These data helps to understand and prioritize energy consumption and costs factors. b Very first factor of power consumption is... energy usage. This can be optimized with appropriate metering and analysis of loads actual consumption.
EIG_chap_D-2010.indb 26
07/12/2009 11:08:23
Second is reactive energy. This lead to additional load on electrical network. and additional energy invoicing. This can be optimized with power factor correction solutions. b Third is cables. Cable losses can be reduced by appropriate organisation and design of site and use of busbar truncking instead of cables wherever accurate. b MV to LV transformers are fourth with approx. 1% of losses. b MV and LV switchboards come last with approximately 0,25% of losses. Generally speaking, LV cables and trunking as well as the MV/LV transformers are the main contributors to operating losses and the weight of equipment used. Environmental optimization of the installation by the architecture will therefore involve: b reducing the length of LV circuits in the installation, b clustering LV circuits wherever possible to take advantage of the factor of simultaneity ks (see chapter A: General rules of electrical installation design, Chapter Power loading of an installation, 4.3 Estimation of actual maximum kVA demand) Objectives
Reducing the length of LV circuits Clustering LV circuits
D27
Resources
Placing MV/LV substations as close as possible to the barycenter of all of the LV loads to be supplied When the simultaneity factor of a group of loads to be supplied is less than 0.7, the clustering of circuits allows us to limit the volume of conductors supplying power to these loads. In real terms this involves: b setting up sub-distribution switchboards as close as possible to the barycenter of the groups of loads if they are localized, b setting up busbar trunking systems as close as possible to the barycenter of the groups of loads if they are distributed. The search for an optimal solution may lead to consider several clustering scenarios. In all cases, reducing the distance between the barycenter of a group of loads and the equipment that supplies them power allows to reduce environmental impact.
As an example figure D28 shows the impact of clustering circuits on reducing the distance between the barycenter of the loads of an installation and that of the sources considered (MLVS whose position is imposed). This example concerns a mineral water bottling plant for which: b the position of electrical equipment (MLVS) is imposed in the premises outside of the process area for reasons of accessibility and atmosphere constraints, b the installed power is around 4 MVA. In solution No.1, the circuits are distributed for each workshop. In solution No. 2, the circuits are distributed by process functions (production lines).

Without changing the layout of electrical equipment, the second solution allows us to achieve gains of around 15% on the weight of LV cables to be installed (gain on lengths) and a better uniformity of transformer power. To supplement the optimizations carried out in terms of architecture, the following points also contribute to the optimization: b the setting up of LV power factor correction to limit losses in the transformers and LV circuits if this compensation is distributed, b the use of low loss transformers, b the use of aluminum LV busbar trunking when possible, since natural resources of this metal are greater.
