Target Audience: Energy Queensland
1. Amendment Record
2. Objective
This standards alert covers the introduction of the NOJA 11kV, 22kV & 33kV RC20 Synchrophasor.
3. Introduction
Energy Queensland will be introducing the NOJA 11kV, 22kV & 33kV RC20 Synchrophasor as a part of
the ARENA/NOJA Power Synchrophasor Project. The recloser controllers will have time-synchronised
phasor (synchrophasor) measurement capability. This synchrophasor data will be used for further research
and development into the impact of renewables on the medium voltage distribution network. EQL has
committed to install 50 reclosers, to collect and store data generated by the synchrophasor units and to
provide input and assistance on a range of other project activities.
The NOJA RC20 Synchrophasor recloser is a part of the trial which will run for 18 months from the date of
installation of the reclosers. There will be no other RC20’s available to be ordered other than the 50 units.
The North South will be trialling 11kV, 22kV and 33kV RC20’s while the Southeast will only have the 11kV
option.
Page 1 of 5 This Standards Alert will remain in force until either the expiry date is exceeded, or update of Dept Head
the relevant sections of the specified manuals has occurred.

The NOJA RC20 Synchrophasor is virtually identical to the current NOJA RC10 Recloser unit, except for
an additional modem/antenna and some control box/software changes.
Single Utilitinet Radio Used Two modems used, Cybertec and Utilitinet Radio
4. Supplier
The new RC20 Synchrophasor is supplied by NOJA. There has been an initial order of 50 units. These 50
units have all been allocated specific sites and will be rolled out accordingly.
5. Planning Guidelines
The pole construction includes manually operated isolation switches thereby allowing the site to be
considered as an approved isolation point.
The recloser is supplied with an external 11kV, 22kV or 33kV /220V voltage transformer to provide auxiliary
supply to the control box.

a) All Areas
b) Southeast
• Hence there will be two antennas, one antenna mounted on the control box and
the traditional antenna mounted on the pole
• The commissioning instructions are provided to Pole Mounted Plant crews and
Work practise documents have been updated to reflect these changes.
c) North/South
• Use of an additional CISCO modem along with the traditional Cybertec modem.
The CISCO modem is used to receive the synchrophasor data.
i. NOTE: during the testing of the CISCO modem it has been noted that the
modem gets very hot. Caution must be taken when working with the
CISCO modem. Appropriate protective gear (gloves) to be used.
ii. A risk assessment has been completed by Comms Design team to identify
the risk of overheating of the Cisco modem. The outcome of the risk
assessment is that only risk is a burn risk while handling the Cisco modem,
gloves are to be used for operation of the modem.
• There will be an Input/ Output (I/O) module fitted inside the control box. This I/O
module is used to turn off the CISCO modem in case of mains power loss.
• There will be two antennas used, these will be available in the Overhead
Construction Manual for reference.
There are 37 RC20 units delivered to Eagle Farm Distribution Centre and 13 RC20 units delivered to
Banyo stores. These units are ready to be picked for projects.
The lead times for delivery of the units will be as per the standard delivery times of RC10.
8. Replacement / spares
The RC20 reclosers are covered under the standard NOJA warranty. It has a 24-month warranty, any
failure would need to be reported, effected component returned to NOJA for evaluation. If the fault is
covered under warranty, NOJA will repair or replace the controller.

the relevant sections of the specified manuals has occurred.

Uncontrolled Document When Printed
In case of a failure of an RC20, the crew should install an RC10 controller and notify Deepthi Yogiswara
about the fault and location and proceed with the standard procedure.
The SCADA point mapping for the RC20 controller units is the same as the RC10 controller units to
simplify replacement.
9. Design Guidelines
The Compatible Code for the RC20 Synchrophasor (which includes the recloser, VT, and sundry
materials) are S113ACR20SP3, S223ACR20SP3, S333ACR20SP3, S113RLB20SP3, and the
Construction Codes are SW11/3/ACR20S/PG3, SW22/3/ACR20S/PG3 AND
SW33/3/ACR20S/PG3.
The Compatible Unit (CU) for the RC20 Synchrophasor (which includes the recloser, VT, and
sundry materials) is 11SYN/NOJAFF.
Ergon OHCM “Assembly” Page 305 have been created for the RC20 Synchrophasor.
Ergon OHCM “Switches” Drawings 1175 Sh4, 1952 Sh1, 1952 Sh2,1952 Sh3 and 1952 Sh5 have
been updated to include the RC20 Synchrophasor.
Energex OHCM Pages 7-205 and 7-206 have been updated to include the RC20 Synchrophasor.
The latest versions of Overhead Construction Manuals available via the Asset Standards intranet site or
via the RED/Process Zone document system for internal staff.
The current manuals are available to external service providers via the internet. The Manuals are
uncontrolled documents when printed.
