Abstract :
The Glen Canyon power plant has eight 125,000-kva 0.90-power-factor 13.8-kv generators. Power is transformed from generator voltage by three banks of 345-13.7-kv single-phase FOW (oil-immersed forced-oil-cooled with forced-water cooler) transformers and one bank of 230-13.8-kv single-phase FOW transformers. Switching facilities consisting of a 345-kv ring bus using six circuit breakers and a 7-breaker 230-kv installation are provided to connect the power plant circuits to the transmission system.
