City of Corpus Christi Engineering Department POBox 9277 Cnrpus Christl. TX 78469-9277 Reference: O.N. Stevens Water Treatment Plant Alternate Power Supply System Failure Analysis (Project No. 855i) - AMENDMENT NO.1 Dear Mr. Escohar In the process of performing the Forensic Study and reviewing the historical data retrieved from the GE Multilin 489 DifferentIal Relay, it has been determined that the Current Transformers in the generators are saturating. This saturatIon caused the relays to trip when the initial transformer inrush current was applied. To COTTect this problem the consulting engineer Mr. Jim Warwick, P.E., prescribed changing the ('r s from Class-l 00. to Clas~-200. He also suggested the ratio be changed from 400:5 to 600:5. These l'hanges were not antiCIpated \vhen the project was star1ed. Also. Tidal Power ServIces, LLC recommends additional testing and changes to ensure the Emergency Power System IS ready and capable of transItioning from the utility (AEP) to the three (3) emergency generators when necessary This additional step would be in the form of a full dynamic transfer test. It IS recommended this tesl be performed each month during monthly maintenance. Additional funds are needed to cover the cost of the Current Transformers ($9,000.00), and to initiate the monthly Dynamic-Power transfer testing of the Generators ($13,500.00), for a total of $22,500.00 If vou have any questions after your rn ie\\> please do not hesitate to gl ve me a call at 361-772-3118 Regards.
