Welding equipment including welding gas
Cutting-off machines, grinding machines
Crane
Torque wrench

Galvanized spray

6.3.

Transport

Transportation of bus ducts is made proper places to work in site. Crane will be used and all
necessary precaution matures will be taken. Provide crane and truck to transportation of busducts
and accessories from lay down area to the field. Use crane for lifting and carrying bus ducts.
When crane will be used according to 7.3. lifting operation. It will be stayed suitable places, so it
prevents to work and workers work safely.

6.4. Preparing Element Prior to Installation

6.3.1. Elements Welding
Bus ducts comply with the project requirements. Where welding of the bus ducts is needed, it
will be performed by competent personnel. When welding will be made, welding area will be
protected with tent. Flammable things will be got rid of area. The working area has to be tidy up
and floor or platform has to be protected via fire prove blanket against sparks falling. Bus ducts
weld will be sprayed with spray immediately after welding. Spray will be given by supervisor.
Spay MSDS will be ready available at the working place. The weld surface has to be brushed and
welding slag has to be removed. After cool down of weld the area must be painted. Protective
measures will be taken in accordance with the MSDS. Argon gas will be used with welder
device, so it will be taken some precautions when it will be used. Open cylinder valves slowly
with valve outlet directed away from all personnel. Do not empty a cylinder completely. This
will prevent a flash-back and a possible explosive mixture. Purge oxygen and acetylene lines
before lighting. Close the main cylinder valve as soon as it is no longer necessary to have it open.
Before you remove the regulator make sure that the cylinder valve is closed.

6.5.

Installation

Check last revision of approved project then start installation. Controlling the montage
equipments of bus duct with the supervisor and performed an examination on the project then
gives the tasks to the team. Scaffold will be set by trained people. It will be color-coded.
Installation will be carried out in accordance with the last approved revision of the installation
projects. Request form for materials will be prepared. Site will be controlled by busduct
supervisor then according to supervisor, it will be transported. Bus ducts will be transported from
lay down area to site with crane and pickup. While it will be carried, it will be fixed safely in the

truck board. The assembly drawings will be checked on the place of installation. At the working
area, the bus ducts will be placed in a way that will not prevent safe access and egress. Checking
will be done for the accessories of bus ducts and preparation of bus ducts accessories for
montage, after boxes will be opened. Erection of bus ducts will be started by crane. Signaler will
help operator when it will be lifted. All personnel, who work high places, will have PPE.
Installation of bus ducts will be executed according to the requirements. According to supervisor,
it will be erected. Erection will be tracked from transformers to circuit breaker then from circuit
breaker to turbine. Precondition Generator including the terminals to IPB has been installed.
Installation will follow the erection drawing. The silicone bushings at phase side must be
installed during alignment of shipping units. Preconditions the unit auxiliary transformer must be
installed before erection of the connecting shipping units. Installation will follow the erection
drawing. Bus ducts comply with the projects requirements. Where cutting of bus ducts is needed,
it will be sprayed with spray immediately. When all erection and testing will be done, scaffold
will be dismantled by competent personnel. PPE will be used all level of action. When all of
works will be done, it will be controlled all equipment. After the works is done daily, working
areas will be cleaned.

7. HSE
7.1.

Personal protective equipment

PPE will be provided and used in accordance with requirements. Helmet, safety glasses, high
visibility vest, and safety shoes will be used at all the times.
When work in dusty environment personnel will use dust protective half masks.
Hearing protection will be used where exposure levels exceed 85 dB.
When work at height fall arrest system will be used if other protective measures are not feasible.
When work with welding, welders will use welders clothes, gloves, protective face masks.

7.2.

Machinery

All machinery, equipment and tools will be maintained in good working order; will be inspected
regularly; and will be operated by competent persons. All necessary measures will be in place in

workers from moving parts. Electrical tools will be double insulated and grounded connected to
ground fault circuit interrupters (GFCI).
All vehicles will have backing warning device. Banks man will guide vehicles
in narrow work places and when reversing. Vehicles will not pass, will not be
positioned or parked close to excavation edges.

Lifting operations

Execution of the lifting operations will comply with the provisions of the
Project HSE Manual.
Cranes will be set on even flat ground. Pads will be used under the outriggers
feet where necessary.
When work is close to excavation the lifting equipment will be positioned that
should change between 1m and 4m from the excavation edge in order to
prevent earth collapse in accordance to ground type. Working limits of the
lifting equipment stipulated by the manufacturer will not be exceeded. All
lifting equipment will be stored in closed area away from wet and direct
sunlight.
