2. Lessons Learned

Division : Transmission Projects

Date of Incident : 04th January 2015

Type of incident : Occurrence

Incident Time :15:45 Hours

Description of Incident:

The Top disc insulator of B phase of the hoisted insulator string came out from ball of “Ball and

clevis” and the complete string of B Phase bumped to C Phase insulator string, four insulators

were broken because of the impact and broken pieces of ceramics fell on internal road of L&T.

Root Cause Analysis

Human Factors

Violation by supervisor : The supervisor did not ensured the correct locking of “M”

pin prior installation

Improper decision making or lack of judgment: The supervisor & workmen

assumed that desired locking property will be achieved

Physical Factors

Defective tools / equipment: The distorted “M” pin was used for the joint

Recommendations:

1. Check point for checking (by contractor supervisor & random checking by Tata Power

representative) all the locking pins of disc insulator and other hardware accessories

should be added to conductor stringing checklist.

2. All Contractor workmen and supervisors should be trained on how to check locking pin

of disc insulator and how to install it properly. A technically acceptable Good pin should

be available at site as a sample pin for comparison purpose.

3. Project engineering should be asked to check whether changing specification (for

increasing spring tension of M pin, increase of the thickness of the Cu flat of the pin) of

M pin could avoid such incidents.
