Turbine Synchronization Guide

This checklist provides steps for rolling and synchronizing a turbine unit. It includes steps to check equipment like pumps, pressures, temperatures and ensure proper startup steam parameters. Key steps are engaging the barring gear, transferring control of valves, matching generator voltage and frequency, and closing the breaker to synchronize to the grid. Load is then picked up gradually according to metal temperatures. Shift operators and charge engineer sign off after verifying critical steps.

Bypass valve & its spray valve
22
Remove MSV trip link at GRP ch-1 & ch-2.
23
Select BP off mode
24
Reset the turbine near front pedestal with latching lever. Record AST pressure
Reset turbine from DEH screen LATCH button and observe RSV, GV and IV will go for full open. If valve is
25
not going for open, in DEH overview page press TM PANEL icon, open GV valve and IV valve manually to
120%.
