The relevance of the study lies in the search for energy-saving technologies. So, at present, the most common type of electric drive in industry is asynchronous, most of which are unregulated. Replacing an unregulated electric drive with an adjustable one in various units can significantly reduce energy consumption, increase the life of the mechanical part of the drive and improve the quality of the adjustable process parameter. The replacement consists in installing an electronic frequency converter between the network and the motor of the device. This device changes the rotational speed of the motor rotor by changing the frequency and amplitude of the supply voltage. The most common are frequency converters with an intermediate DC link. Such devices are built on electronic keys, which are made on IGBT (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor) transistors. Using the NI Multisim14 software, a model was created to determine power savings during the implementation of VFD.The paper gives the rationale for the introduction of a frequency-controlled electric drive (VFD) to optimize technological processes in electrical complexes and systems, in particular, a complete analysis of the energy efficiency of VFD application in pumped water supply systems is presented as an example. The calculation of its economic efficiency for a particular installation is also given.
Detection of defects at an early stage of their occurrence, especially for power transformers that have worked out the standard term, is an acute problem. This article discusses the possibility of using the system of monitoring, control and diagnosis of transformer equipment (SMUID) electrical systems in conjunction with the automated control system of electrical equipment (ASU ETO) and automated information-measuring system of commercial electricity metering (AIIS KUE) with the use of QR-code, as well as using TeamViewer for the operational elimination of accidents and identify abnormal operation of transformer equipment. Transformer monitoring system is designed for monitoring isolation, recording and analysis of partial discharges, monitoring of technical condition ensuring maximum fault-free service life of transformers. In addition, the introduction of automated diagnostics and electrical equipment is a necessary condition for the introduction of SmartGrid technology in industrial electric networks, contributes to the reduction of capital investments in the renewal of the equipment fleet. The methods currently used do not detect dangerous insulation degradation, are not sensitive to its aging, and in some cases mistakenly assess the isolation condition. The work analyses the operability and quality of the systems under consideration, shows the hierarchical structure of SMUID. By applying the proposed idea with the QR-code, it is possible to speed up the process of searching for information about the current technical state of electrical equipment.
This work is devoted to the development of an automated transfer switch (ATS) for the 6/0.4 kV substation. The work is relevant due to the introduction of automation and the replacement of electromechanical equipment with microprocessor devices in the power systems. At the lower (field) level, automation is driven by the use of programmable logic controllers (PLCs) and various smart sensors. The possibility of using modular PLC in automation systems is considered. Developed are an algorithm and a program for the implementation of automated regulation of the application of automatic transfer switches at a substation using the recommendations of the IEC 61131.3 “Programming languages of programmable logic controllers” standard.
