Common faults and solutions of inverters

By |2024-08-03T14:03:37+08:00August 3rd, 2024|Guideline|0 Comments

As an important component of the entire power station, the inverter can detect almost all parameters of the power station, from the DC components on top to the grid connected equipment on the bottom. If there is an abnormality, the health status of the supporting equipment in the power station can be checked through the feedback information from the inverter. No mains connection Reason for malfunction: Indicates that there is no connection to the mains or the AC circuit breaker is disconnected, causing the inverter to not detect the voltage of the mains. Solution: Determine whether the power grid has been cut off. If the power grid has been cut off, wait for the power grid to resume supply. If the power supply of the grid is normal, use a multimeter to measure the AC output voltage in the AC voltage range to see if it is normal. First, measure the output port of the inverter and check if there [...]

Types and specifications of photovoltaic grounding

By |2024-07-27T13:37:51+08:00July 27th, 2024|Guideline|0 Comments

In the photovoltaic power station system, grounding design is a crucial part of electrical design, which is related to the safety of equipment and personnel in the power station. Good grounding design can ensure that the power station operates in a safe environment for a long time, reduce the frequency of faults, and improve the overall operational efficiency of the power station.   What is grounding? Grounding refers to the connection of the neutral point of the power system and electrical equipment, the exposed conductive parts of electrical equipment, and the conductive parts outside the equipment to the ground through conductors. It can be divided into several types: working grounding, lightning protection grounding, and protective grounding.   The function of grounding? Prevent electric shock The impedance of the human body is closely related to the environmental conditions it is in. The more humid the environment, the lower the impedance of the human body, and the more susceptible it is to [...]

Eight major differences between air cooling and liquid cooling in energy storage systems

By |2024-07-20T09:37:01+08:00July 20th, 2024|Guideline|0 Comments

Energy storage system is the key support for building a new power system. It can convert electrical energy into chemical energy for storage so that it can be released when needed. At present, air cooling and liquid cooling are the two commonly used heat dissipation methods in energy storage systems.   Different heat dissipation principles Air cooling is to remove heat through air flow to reduce the surface temperature of the device. The advantages of air cooling are simple structure and low cost, but its heat dissipation effect is greatly affected by factors such as ambient temperature and air circulation, and is not suitable for high-power and high-density equipment. Liquid cooling is to remove heat through liquid circulation to reduce the internal temperature of the device. The advantages of liquid cooling are good heat dissipation effect and high stability, but its cost is high and it requires maintenance of the liquid circulation system. Different applicable scenarios The air cooling system [...]

What is the difference between photovoltaic inverters and energy storage inverters?

By |2024-07-17T11:07:34+08:00July 13th, 2024|Guideline|0 Comments

In the field of new energy, photovoltaic inverters and energy storage inverters are important devices that play an indispensable role in our lives. But what is the difference between these two? We will conduct in-depth analysis of these two inverters from the aspects of structure, function, and application scenarios.   Structural differences Firstly, in principle, an inverter is mainly a device that converts DC power into AC power. It utilizes the switching characteristics of semiconductor devices such as field-effect transistors or thyristors to control the power supply voltage and current through rapid switching, thereby achieving the conversion of DC to AC power. Energy storage inverters (PCS) are a broader concept that involves converting and regulating electrical energy through power electronic devices to achieve power transmission, conversion, and control. PCS mainly includes modules such as rectification, inverter, DC/DC conversion, among which the inverter module is just one of its components.

How can industrial and commercial energy storage reduce capacity (demand) electricity charges?

By |2024-06-29T14:33:59+08:00June 22nd, 2024|Guideline|0 Comments

How can industrial and commercial energy storage reduce demand/capacity electricity charges? This is a focus of many companies. Before answering this question, we first need to understand what demand/capacity electricity charges are. The basic electricity price reflects the capacity cost in the enterprise cost, that is, the fixed cost part. The basic electricity fee can be calculated in one of three ways: transformer capacity, contract maximum demand, and actual maximum demand. The basic electricity fee paid by the user each month is only related to its capacity or maximum demand, and has nothing to do with its actual electricity consumption. The electricity price refers to the electricity fee that users need to pay for their actual electricity consumption, usually calculated per kilowatt-hour (kWh). It is a major component of the electricity bill and is directly related to the user's electricity consumption. The electricity price reflects the electricity cost in the enterprise's electricity cost. When calculating the electricity price, the actual [...]
