Keinsafan, Kegilaan, Kelegaan

#1: KEINSAFAN

I clocked-out for yesterday at 1815hrs. Gearing myself up with jacket, gloves, face mask (it's smoggy day as usual) and helmet, I rode my bike home. The traffic volume can be considered low as it was not school holidays and I was riding at around 80 km/h - 100 km/h and constant all the time. Working at the yard yesterday really made me tired and I don't have any intention to ride fast on my way home yesterday.

Then, I turned into Jalan Sukepi at Jenjarom and I rode even slower as I don't want to do a horseback ride there, the bumps are just too much for the motorcycle to absorb. If unfortunate enough, I might suffer from backpain afterwards. Then I turned right, passed by SMK Jenjarom and thankful enough, the students had already went back home. If not, it will be a major traffic hiccup there, you might take 30 minutes to get out from the 1 km traffic jam to the Klang - Banting trunk road.

I finally reached the junction into the main road. Weirdly, the traffic jam was so terrible. It is unusual to have traffic jam here although the traffic volume is high, the vehicles can still moving. I carefully rode between the vehicles to get out from the traffic jam. Now I know the massive traffic jam was caused by an accident involving two lorries and a motorcycle. The motorcyclist died with his innards splattered on the road, probably he was ran over by the lorry. Some of the innards sticked on the lorry's registration plate too. The situation quickly snapped my emotion, I continued riding at constant speed without much overtaking and 'cilok'ing. The awareness suddenly came into me and reminded myself to be more careful when riding motorcycle.

This morning, I passed by the accident spot and everything was cleared like nothing happened yesterday. Instinctively I was slowing down when passing the place and then I sped up again averaging at 110 km/h and safely arrived at my office. What a brief awareness... Ride safely!

#2: KEGILAAN

Somebody asked me for a reset. Human feeling reset. I just agreed with that person and we rebooted ourself like nothing happened before. I don't know where the crazyness came from, and shockingly, I am the one who initiate the reboot although that person is the one who suggested the reset. Anyway, I think I will just go with the flow as I am a crazy person! Hahahahha~

#3: KELEGAAN

Finally, the tagging works for KAKG-A genset are finally complete! The only hard-to-reach area for today is to install coolant level switch at the huge radiator. The obstacle is tagging the incoming cables at the ECP (Engine Control Panel) where the glands are closely installed to each other. I faced difficulty identifying the cables that run to the both rig savers so I have to trace the connection from the rig savers to the ECP. When I identified them, I saw the cable markings on the bottom side. Hampeh. There are also 'hidden cables' that happen to be W004 and W003 cables connected to the MDEC. Then, there is also new cables that are currently not exist in the electrical interface drawing. With the help from project engineer, Mr. Hafidz, I finally tagged the cable as power cable for alternator's space heater and alternator's RTD. With that, every cables inside the genset have been successfully tagged. What a relief! I went back to the office before lunch time. Phew~

Nimble hands...

Panjat Memanjat

Aktiviti tagging diteruskan lagi hari ini dengan membuat tagging di sudut-sudut sukar. Jika dahulu sudut sukar untuk genset-genset berkuasa kecil seperti KUJT-A dan F9JT-A (108 kW) serta MLDP-A dan LHDP-A (88 kW) yang semuanya dipacu oleh enjin turbodiesel cap Cummins (buatan UK) adalah di bahagian-bahagian yang sempit serta berupaya mematahkan pinggang, sudut-sudut sukar di genset besar yang dipacu oleh enjin twin-turbodiesel cap MTU (buatan Jerman) adalah ketinggian. Sesungguhnya saya bukannya fobia kepada ketinggian tetapi kedudukan perkakasan yang terlalu dekat dengan bumbung dan kesukaran mendapatkan kedudukan yang baik untuk meletakkan tangga telah membuatkan proses tagging menjadi berisiko tinggi.

Ni le ghopenye genset KAKG-A 1200 kW yang masih dalam pembinaan. FAT minggu dpan, agaknya...

Hari ini, perjuangan tagging maju setapak lagi apabila saya telah berjaya memasang tagging untuk kabel-kabel yang disambungkan ke IR flame detector (4 buah), lampu skid (4 buah), tagging untuk kabel-kabel yang disambungkan ke panel pengecas bateri dan juga ke suis-suis IR flame detector di luar. Mujurlah rakan seperjuangan, Zopak turut membantu dalam proses ini. Kami berhenti setakat disitu dan meneruskan kerja-kerja memasang stopper pada lubang-lubang di panel kawalan yang tidak digunakan. Selepas itu, kakitangan dari MTU telah datang untuk menghidupkan enjin MTU 16V2000 yang memacu alternator cap Leroy Somer (buatan Perancis) untuk pertama kalinya. Saya sempat melihat mereka memuat turut starting sequence ke dalam MDEC (komputer yang mengawal operasi enjin) dan berdepan dengan error. Saya dan Zopak terus pulang ke pejabat selepas itu. Hari esok saya akan menghabiskan kesemua tagging yang tinggal, di panel kawalan enjin dan level switch di radiator.

IR flame detector, mule2 aku ingatkan CCTV

Ni la rupe cable tag, yang ni kat battery charger panel

6th Gear!

Some of you might not know that my current project now is on KAKG-A 1200 kW genset for PETRONAS. Thankful enough, this is the genset with large skid, meaning the canopy height is as high as our house. Therefore, I can save myself from backpains due to working in hard-to-reach area and limited space.

As usual, I have been entrusted to facilitate the E&I (Electrical & Instrument) work for the genset. That means, I have been working with numerous P&ID and electrical interface drawings prior to do the work on-site (I mean inside the genset).

Today, I went to the yard (after countless visits just to find the switches and transmitters were not fitted yet) to do the tagging works. There are several additions and amendments in the genset installation that need drawing update. Then, I proceed with the tagging work and I managed to get the job 80% done. Another 20% will be completed hopefully tomorrow. I need to tag all the lights and IR (Infra Red) flame detectors that are mounted at the ceiling of the genset. So, I will need more climbing tomorrow. Today I just climbed the big MTU engine to tag both of the rig savers and the alternator to tag the vibration switch.

The MDEC (MTU engine control unit) is not hooked up yet, so the engine can't be started. The F.A.T (factory acceptance test) is scheduled on the 28th this month. Quickly evaluating the current progress, I believe this is achievable. If there is delay, it will be for just 2 or 3 days lag usually caused by late delivery of essential items. To all fabrication yard staffs, project engineer and contractors, keep up the good work!
