6 FAQs about [Solar power generation large industrial transformer]
How has the transformer industry evolved with the solar industry?
The transformer industry has evolved together with the solar industry during the past decade. From a voltage transformation perspective, the first solar farms required a standard three phase padmount transformer, with minor diferences to commercial application requirements: step-up design, electrostatic shield, LV values according to the inverter.
What types of transformers are suitable for solar power plants?
There are two main types of transformers that are suitable for solar power plants: distribution transformers and grid transformers. Distribution transformers help increase the output voltage for the plant collection system, and if the plant is connected to a distribution network, power can be exported directly to the grid.
Why is sizing a transformer important for a PV power plant?
mers need to with-stand high temperatures as harsh weather conditions. Sizing of these transformers is a crucial factor when planning a PV power plant, as too large rated power can lead to instabilities and economic disadvantages as well as too small trans-fo
Are inverter duty transformers suitable for grid connected photovoltaic systems?
We offer Inverters duty transformers having three-windings and five-windings construction specially designed for grid connected photovoltaic systems. Extra care is taken in design and manufacturing of inverter duty transformers to address the harmonics that are usually to appear in the transformer windings.
Should a transformer be rated near a PV plant peak power?
In fact, while selecting a transformer rated power close to the PV plant peak power makes theoretically possible to fully transfer the captured solar energy to the utility network, such a design criterion will in practice lead to oversize both the transformer, the inverter and the power line.
What is a step-up transformer in a PV system?
Conventional distribution transformers are widely used, either singly or paralleled, to connect the inverter to the main power line. The step-up transformer is a key element of a PV system, as it processes the whole generated energy.
