Description

  • The System Separation Protection (78) Device is a new-generation product independently developed and manufactured by our company. It is suitable for substations or interconnections operating with small power sources connected to medium- and low-voltage grids.
  • In the event of a grid fault, the device can quickly and reliably disconnect the small power sources from the grid to ensure the restoration of power supply from the main source and guarantee the safe and stable operation of the grid system.
  • It features functions such as low-frequency disconnection, low-voltage disconnection, over-frequency disconnection, busbar overvoltage disconnection, zero-sequence overvoltage disconnection, and loss-of-synchronism disconnection.

FAQ

Q:In what types of projects are system separation protection devices primarily used?

A:System separation protection devices are primarily used in power generation projects, such as hydroelectric, thermal, and photovoltaic power plants. In the event of a fault on the generation side, these devices immediately isolate the faulty section to ensure the safety of the power grid.

Q:Where are system separation protection devices typically installed?

A:System separation protection devices are typically installed in parallel and are mainly located in the secondary distribution rooms of substations; however, they may sometimes be installed on high-voltage switchgear for grid connection depending on specific requirements.
