Release Time : 2025-01-29
Measuring transformer plays a vital role in power system, mainly used for voltage and current measurement, protection and control. The advantages of measuring transformer are not only reflected in the measurement accuracy, but also can effectively ensure the safe and stable operation of power system.
1. Electrical isolation and safety
High voltage isolation: measuring transformer can isolate high voltage or large current into safe low voltage or small current for use by measuring instruments, protection devices or control systems. This avoids direct contact with high voltage circuits by operators and reduces the risk of electric shock.
Protect personal safety: Through measuring transformer, the monitoring and control equipment of power system can be kept away from high voltage environment to ensure the safety of operators.
Prevent equipment damage: measuring transformer can isolate high voltage to prevent measuring instruments or protection equipment from being damaged by direct access to high voltage.
2. Measurement accuracy and reliability
High-precision measurement: The output voltage or current of measuring transformer has a fixed proportional relationship with the measured signal, which can accurately reflect the changes of voltage and current in the power system and ensure the accuracy of measurement data.
Stable output: The measuring transformer is designed with linearity and phase error in mind, providing a stable output signal over a wide range and reducing measurement errors.
Long-term reliability: Modern measuring transformers are usually made of high-quality cores and insulation materials, have a long service life and high reliability, and can operate stably for a long time.
3. Matching voltage and current
Matching measuring equipment: The voltage and current of the power system usually far exceed the working range of ordinary measuring instruments. The measuring transformer can convert high voltage (such as 110kV, 220kV) or high current (such as several thousand amperes) into low voltage (such as 100V) or low current (such as 5A) to match standard measuring instruments.
Protecting measuring equipment: By adjusting the output range of voltage and current, the measuring transformer can protect the measuring instrument from high voltage and high current and extend the service life of the equipment.
4. Simplifying power system design
Standardized design: The output signal of the measuring transformer is usually a standardized voltage (100V) or current (5A), which makes the design of measuring instruments and protection devices simpler and standardized, and convenient for mass production and maintenance.
Reduce wiring complexity: Through measuring transformers, a large number of measuring and protection devices in the power system can be centrally connected, reducing complex line layout and improving the maintainability and reliability of the system.
5. Protection function and fault isolation
Protection function: measuring transformers are often used in relay protection systems, which can monitor the voltage, current, phase and other information of the power system in real time. When a system fault occurs (such as short circuit, overload or ground fault), the protection device can quickly cut off the faulty part according to the data provided by the measuring transformer to prevent the accident from expanding.
Fault isolation: When a fault occurs in the power system, the measuring transformer can quickly and accurately locate the fault point, help the operator to isolate the fault area in time and restore the stable operation of the system.
6. Improve the stability of the power system
Real-time monitoring: Through measuring transformers, the power system can monitor parameters such as voltage, current, and power in real time, detect abnormal conditions in time, and avoid unstable operation of the system due to voltage fluctuations or current overlimits.
Dynamic adjustment: The power system can dynamically adjust the parameters of power generation, transmission and distribution according to the data fed back by the measuring transformer to maintain the balance and stability of the system.
Reduce the impact of accidents: Through the rapid response of measuring transformers,
the power system can take immediate measures at the early stage of the fault to reduce the impact of the accident on the overall operation of the system.
7. Energy saving and loss reduction
Low-loss design: Modern measuring transformers usually adopt low-power design, with small iron loss and copper loss, which can reduce the energy loss of the power system and improve energy utilization efficiency.
Efficient operation: The precise measurement and rapid response of measuring transformers enable the power system to operate more efficiently and avoid energy waste caused by measurement errors or response delays.
8. Adapt to harsh environments
Weather resistance: measuring transformers usually have good high temperature resistance, moisture resistance, corrosion resistance and other characteristics, and can adapt to harsh environments such as outdoor and high pollution, ensuring stable operation under various working conditions.
Anti-interference ability: measuring transformers use electromagnetic isolation technology, which can effectively resist external electromagnetic interference and ensure the accuracy and stability of measurement data.
9. Intelligent monitoring and remote management
Digital technology: Modern measuring transformers integrate digital technology, which can directly transmit measurement data to the monitoring system to achieve real-time data collection and analysis.
Remote monitoring: Through the communication interface, the data of the measuring transformer can be remotely transmitted to the control center, which is convenient for operators to conduct remote monitoring and management.
Fault diagnosis: The intelligent measuring transformer can perform self-test and fault diagnosis, warn of potential problems in advance, and reduce downtime and maintenance costs.
Measuring transformers have many advantages in the safe and stable operation of power systems, including electrical isolation and safety, high-precision measurement and reliability, matching of voltage and current, simplified system design, fault protection and isolation, improved system stability, energy saving and consumption reduction, adaptation to harsh environments, and intelligent monitoring and remote management. These advantages not only improve the operating efficiency and safety of the power system, but also reduce operating costs, which meets the requirements of modern power systems for high efficiency, intelligence and environmental protection. Through the reasonable design and use of measuring transformers, the operation level of the power system can be further improved to ensure its long-term stable and reliable operation.
