Working with high voltage
Hello Dear YaPovtsy.
For the power end of the summer - it's time to complete the repairs. In November, the first cold and snow will test their readiness for the next autumn-winter season. In the spring begins work unseen by us - the specialists of KEGOS do everything to ensure that our homes in winter, it was bright and warm. In the hot summer, we went after them to tell you about their difficult work of men.
It will be a lot of photos.
Our photo story began in the capital of substation-500 CCPR national company KEGOC. The system operator has three main functions: the transfer (inter-regional and inter-state transit), scheduling and balancing of the power grid.
Akmola branch of the inter-regional electric grids KEGOC - one of the largest (territory divided between Kazakhstan 9 branches MES). In the area of responsibility of the territory of two regions - Akmola and North Kazakhstan. This is a 4, 2 thousand kilometers of high-voltage overhead transmission lines, among which there is the record for extra-high voltage (1150 kV), or as it is called energy - "Millionka."
All incoming consumed generated by passing electricity transit and clearly visible on the shield (large block monitor) regional dispatch center. The task controllers - to maintain the energy balance of a node, or in other words, the quality of electricity
Ideal - is the frequency of 50 hertz. If the intake of greater development, the frequency is reduced and if it needs to be aligned. A schedule of advance supply. But it happens that the enterprise or RECs give the application some figures, but in reality out more. In such cases it has to give the command to lift the level of power generation or restrict offenders.
Each line of color in the class tension. Blue - a 500 kW, green - 220 yellow color on the screen are lit de-energized portions derived repair.
Manager working around the clock for four people in two shifts. Alexander Kondrashov in a large power since 1996. He started as an engineer equipment, then gained experience in the "high-voltage electrical networks Akmola." In KEGOC passed in 2008. Last year, he passed the qualifying exams and is now a senior manager FAMES ACC.
Job Manager - is a constant focus. It is necessary to make the right decision in a short period of time, so always felt responsible for the people and equipment that are in the operational management.
Before, everything was in the same hands. Today alone generators, power transmission and dispatching control in the hands of the state, delivery to consumers by regional energy companies - gives explanations Chief ACC (regional dispatch center) Gennady Gavrish.
Electricity is supplied to Astana transit on lines 220 and 500 kV (kilovolts) from Ekibastuz and its own source - urban purposes. The transformer voltage is converted to 220, then 110 to 10 kV and in this way electricity is fed into the municipal network.

Central City step-down substation is considered the most technologically updated. After the first stage of modernization of the RV is equipped with modern equipment - automatic control systems, relay protection. For example, instead of oil and air circuit breakers, now stand electrogas.
...
They do not need a compressor station and dozens of tons of oil, and when they make a click switch - while the air rang like artillery fire. After modernization, the cost of maintaining the equipment have decreased by 4 times. This is our purely metropolitan record - said the deputy chief engineer of the Akmola MES Temirgali Kozhahmetov.
The repair campaign on the power lines start with a fine spring day and lasts until the end of October. First held detours - horse inspection lines reveals reliability of the assembly supports the integrity of insulators and conductors. After a schedule of repair lines.
On repair of 220 kV line №2781 "Erkenshilik-Yereimentau", which is on the site "Ekibastuz-Astana" provides the power supply rail traction substations is given just seven days. During this time you need to replace the three pillars, several hundred isolators. Day here was rain and now counts every hour. For safety work in bad weather prohibited.
...
...
Sometimes it is necessary bearing supports. In winter, when humidity on live wires formed ice, increases the load dozens of times. For fun, once measured the weight of the ice build-up. Fought off the ice with one meter wire - left 10 liters of melt water. Multiply this weight by the distance between supports - from 260 to 400 meters and the number of phases - goes from 8 to 15 tons of excess weight that swings steppe wind.
...
...
Travel linesmen last from 10 to 20 days, there is a short break - to see family. The composition of the team - an average of six people.
- I like it here. Easy, no bustle of the city, fresh air, nature, - said the six-foot hero Alexander Sabchuk welder.

At Alexander Nikolayevich Bulatov one record in the workbook. After high school, he got a job as an electrician in Akmola WPP overhead and out in 1996, moved to the JSC «KEGOC». Elektromonetrom overhead line running 43 years. Who conveys the experience of young people.
The main thing - there is a sense of pride from the fact that the work is not in vain. The fruits of our work - is not only light in the windows of the city is electric, smoking chimneys of factories. Therefore, labor linesmen interesting and equally responsible, as we serve the objects of national importance.
Anchor truck carried away and dig a hole in the drill to a depth of three meters is sent Brugg, Siegfried. He was frail, the cleverest and the youngest here.
The team appreciated for its responsiveness and willingness to work on the most difficult sections. In the evenings, Siegfried pulls out a notebook, and if there is a mobile unit, then, today, he probably sees this photo essay
...
A team under the direction of master linesmen Sergei Vorontsov, for the past ten years spent in the steppe all summer and early autumn - changing poles, wires and insulators - to winter electricity interruption came from point A to point B. And if the frost and snow disaster occurs, the they go on alert at all times.
In winter, they begin to "turn sour" in the city, miss the open spaces. Linesmen - a vocation, not given to everyone to become, - says chief transmission Serik Tashubaev.
While pulling out the drill, a new secure the support yoke - metal structure, on which are mounted insulators and conductors.

Bur on the loose and now the cause of all the others are connected.
Gaziz Olzhas recently received a high school diploma in a specialty "Electrical Engineer" and works here the first month. Upon lifting it pulls the rope, which regulates the level of the transverse yoke.

Oporovoz done his job - and you can read a newspaper. In the photo the driver Serik Atamtaev

Each team has its own chef. Lunch was soup that cook for dinner? Daily throes of creation - in the afternoon sandwiches with cheese and zucchini in batter from Alexander Gorlenko. In the next team by Vitaly Yakovlev survey (pilaf? No, yesterday was the figure) decided to cook pasta nautically.
...
...
Abildinov Mamai Akhmetovich also one of the veterans of the team. To link their fate with the lines 30 years ago. In KEGOC JSC was transferred in 2006 from Stepnogorsk JSC REC.
Electricians linesmen - a special kind of power engineers. Work in spartan conditions, away from civilization and amenities can not everyone. Therefore. electrician profession HVL choose only consciously. Working in the wilderness, where space, and even at the height of the support, feel free and nezavismosti. Of course, there is also a sense of responsibility - the work to be done accurately, professionally and quickly.
That's all.
Thank you.
