4 FAQs about Substation expansion solar container communication station

What is a container substation?

An intelligent solution for obtaining direct current quickly and economically is provided by container substations. By integrating the equipment in a modular housing and undertaking rigorous testing off site, Siemens is able to supply fully built and tested modular traction power substations to a consistent and high level of quality.

What is a digital substation?

A digital substation using fiber-optic cables for communication digitizes data related to the process parameters being measured using conventional or nonconventional instrument transformers (NCITs) and a merging unit. Using less copper makes the digital substation simpler, more compact and more eficient. Figure 2. Digital substation architecture.

How does a substation work?

In a conventional substation, the interface is hard-wired with copper cabling; currents and voltages are routed to protection and control panels at accepted standardized secondary signal levels, and control cables send and receive status information.

Why are utility companies upgrading to digital substations?

With a focus on greener power, improved eficiency and the adoption of smart-grid technologies, utility companies are upgrading from conventional substations to digital substations. Substations interconnect different voltage levels and are the critical link between transmission, distribution and consumption.
