What is a transformer substation?

3.1. Transformer Machines:

Transformer machines are static electrical devices operating based on the principle of electromagnetic induction. They convert alternating current systems at one voltage level to another with a constant frequency. These machines are responsible for voltage transformation without altering the electrical energy.

3.2. Distribution and Control System:

This system includes control cabinets, medium voltage distribution cabinets, low voltage distribution cabinets.

3.3. Isolating Switches:

Isolating switches are used to disconnect electrical circuits, preventing the transmission of electricity in emergency situations or during maintenance. In this article, we will explore what isolating switches are, how they work, and their applications.

3.4. Copper Busbars:

Copper busbars act as intermediaries in the process of electrical transmission. They are manufactured to have high stability while transmitting electrical energy. The size of these bars is typically standardized with a fixed length of 4m and thickness and width determined according to installation requirements.

3.5. Lightning Protection and Grounding System:

Lightning protection devices are a type of electrical device used to limit voltage, protecting electrical systems and high-voltage electrical equipment when struck by direct or indirect lightning.

4. Design Requirements of a Transformer Substation:

• • Ensure the quality of electrical energy, determining the center of auxiliary load and the location of the substation to optimize wiring, minimize voltage drop, and reduce power losses.
  • Ensure cost-effective investments without waste.
  • Ensure safety for both people and equipment, maintaining industrial aesthetics and proximity to the power grid, while ensuring safe electrical corridors.

5. Classification of Transformer Substations:

• • By Voltage:
    • Extra-high voltage.
    • High voltage.
    • Medium voltage.
    • Low voltage.
  • By Power Supply:
    • Intermediate transformer substations.
    • Distribution transformer substations.
  • By Purpose of Use:
    • Outdoor transformer substations.
    • Indoor transformer substations.
