Currently, most secondary equipment in newly - built intelligent substations is placed inside prefabricated cabins located in the switchgear area. After the cabin bodies are manufactured, secondary equipment manufacturers enter the cabins for installation and debugging, resulting in a rather complex and cumbersome construction process. A typical 220 kV intelligent substation usually requires the setup of two prefabricated cabins: one for 220 kV and one for 110 kV. Both cabins are of Type II, wit

IntroductionWith the rapid development of technologies such as cloud computing and big data, and the accelerating penetration of "Internet +" into various industries, the digital economy industry is booming in major countries and regions around the world. It occupies an increasingly important position in daily life and the national economy. Especially under the current impact of the COVID - 19 pandemic globally, the downward trend of the world economy is intensifying. Only the digital economy ha

With the accelerated construction of smart cities, the urban distribution network is constantly being upgraded and renovated, and the construction of overhead line undergrounding projects is also progressing steadily. A large number of 10 kV overhead lines are being replaced by underground cables. Considering the current situation such as limited space on some urban roads and a shortage of equipment installation locations, higher requirements are placed on the volume, structure, and performance

IntroductionThe vacuum interrupter is the most crucial component in a vacuum circuit breaker. It boasts numerous advantages, such as large breaking capacity, frequent operability, excellent arc - extinguishing performance, no pollution, and a compact size. As vacuum circuit breakers are evolving towards higher voltage levels, in - depth research on the internal and external insulation performance of outdoor vacuum interrupters is of greater necessity.The electric field distribution within the in

The power grid is a crucial foundation and safeguard for modern economic development and social progress. The goal of building a strong and intelligent power grid is to construct a modern power grid system that is safe, environmentally - friendly, efficient, and interactive, to achieve the scientific development of the power grid, and to make the power grid a green platform for optimizing the allocation of energy resources, a service platform for meeting diverse user demands, and a fundamental p

From 2009 to 2010, the State Grid was in the pilot phase of the smart grid planning, focusing on developing the strong smart grid development plan, conducting research and development of key technologies, manufacturing equipment, and carrying out pilot projects in various sectors. The period from 2011 to 2015 marked the full - scale construction phase, during which an operational control and interactive service system for the smart grid was initially formed, and significant breakthroughs were ac

Outdoor vacuum circuit breakers are predominantly utilized in the Medium High Voltage (MHV) segment. They serve as a crucial component in the distribution sector, especially within 11kV and 33kV grids. A variety of composite materials are employed in the construction of these breakers. Among them, the vacuum interrupter stands out as the most vital component. For outdoor circuit breakers, the vacuum interrupter is typically encased in a porcelain housing.These breakers are connected to the opera

In-depth Analysis and Key Considerations for Load Characteristic EvaluationLoad characteristic evaluation is a cornerstone of distribution transformer design, directly influencing capacity selection, loss distribution, temperature rise control, and operational economy. The evaluation must be conducted across three dimensions:load type,temporal dynamics, andenvironmental coupling, with a refined model established based on actual operating conditions.1. Refined Analysis of Load TypesClassification

Allocation and Sizing of Distribution Transformers and FeedersDistribution network planning is largely characterized by the allocation and sizing of distribution transformers. The location of these transformers directly dictates the length and route of medium - voltage (MV) and low - voltage (LV) feeders. Therefore, the location and rating of transformers, along with the length and size of MV and LV feeders, need to be determined in a coordinated manner.To achieve this, an optimization process i

Why Mineral Oil?As you may already know, mineral - oil - filled distribution transformers are the most common type of distribution transformers. They are among the most crucial components and can be found in electrical supply systems across the globe.Although the insulating oil is a flammable liquid, the reliability of oil - immersed transformers has been well - proven over numerous years in power supply systems where ensuring a secure power supply is of utmost importance.However, mineral oil is
