Product Overview
The 6kV outdoor static reactive power generator (SVG) is a high-performance dynamic reactive power compensation device designed specifically for medium and high voltage distribution networks. It adopts an outdoor specific design (protection level IP44) and is suitable for complex outdoor working conditions. The product uses a multi chip DSP+FPGA as the control core, integrating instantaneous reactive power theory control technology, FFT fast harmonic calculation technology, and high-power IGBT driving technology. It is directly connected to the power grid through a cascaded power unit structure, without the need for additional boosting transformers, and can quickly and continuously provide capacitive or inductive reactive power. At the same time, it achieves dynamic harmonic compensation, effectively improves power quality, enhances grid stability, and has high reliability, ease of operation, and excellent performance. It is the core compensation solution for outdoor industrial scenes and power systems.
System structure and working principle
Core structure
Cascade power unit: adopting a cascade design, integrating multiple sets of high-performance IGBT modules, and withstanding high voltage of 6kV~35kV through series connection to ensure stable operation of the equipment.
Control core: Equipped with a multi chip DSP+FPGA control system, it has fast computing speed and high control accuracy. It communicates with various power units through Ethernet, RS485 and other interfaces to achieve status monitoring and command issuance.
Auxiliary structure: Configure a grid side coupling transformer with functions of filtering, current limiting, and suppressing current change rate; The outdoor cabinet meets the IP44 protection standard and is suitable for harsh outdoor environments.
Working principle
The controller monitors the load current of the power grid in real-time. Based on the theory of instantaneous reactive power and FFT fast harmonic calculation technology, it instantly analyzes the required reactive current and harmonic components. Through PWM pulse width modulation technology, it controls the switching state of the IGBT module, generates reactive compensation current synchronized with the grid voltage and offset by 90 degrees in phase, accurately offsets the reactive power of the load, and dynamically compensates for harmonic components. The ultimate goal is to only transmit active power on the grid side, achieving multiple objectives of power factor optimization, voltage stability, and harmonic suppression, ensuring efficient and stable operation of the power system.

Note:
1. Capacity (Mvar) refers to the rated regulation capacity within the dynamic regulation range from inductive reactive power to capacitive reactive power.
2. The air core reactor is used for the equipment, and there is no cabinet, so the placement space needs to be planned separately.
3. The above dimensions are for reference only. The company reserves the right to upgrade and improve the products. The product dimensions are subject to change without notice.
Application scenarios
Power system: Adapt to various levels of distribution networks, stabilize grid voltage, balance three-phase systems, reduce power losses, and enhance power transmission capacity.
In the field of heavy industry: metallurgy (electric arc furnace, induction furnace), mining (hoist), ports (crane) and other scenarios, compensating for reactive power and harmonics of impact loads, and suppressing voltage flicker.
Petrochemical and manufacturing industry: Provide compensation for asynchronous motors, transformers, thyristor converters, frequency converters and other equipment, improve power quality, and ensure production continuity.
In the field of new energy, wind farms, photovoltaic power stations, etc. are used to alleviate power fluctuations caused by intermittent power generation and ensure stable grid connected voltage.
Transportation and urban construction: electrified railways (traction power supply system), urban rail transit (elevators, cranes), solving negative sequence and reactive power problems; Urban distribution network renovation to enhance power supply reliability.
Other scenarios: outdoor working conditions that require reactive power compensation and harmonic control, such as lighting equipment, welding machines, resistance furnaces, quartz melting furnaces, etc.
SVG capacity selection core: steady-state calculation & dynamic correction. Basic formula: Q ₙ=P × [√ (1/cos ² π₁ -1) - √ (1/cos ² π₂ -1)] (P is active power, power factor before compensation, target value of π₂, often requires ≥ 0.95). Load correction: impact/new energy load x 1.2-1.5, steady-state load x 1.0-1.1; High altitude/high temperature environment x 1.1-1.2. New energy projects must comply with standards such as IEC 61921 and ANSI 1547, with an additional 20% low-voltage ride through capacity reserved. It is recommended to leave 10% -20% expansion space for modular models to avoid compensation failure or compliance risks caused by insufficient capacity.
What are the differences between SVG, SVC, and capacitor cabinets?
The three are the mainstream solutions for reactive power compensation, with significant differences in technology and applicable scenarios:
Capacitor cabinet (passive): The lowest cost, graded switching (response 200-500ms), suitable for steady-state loads, requires additional filtering to prevent harmonics, suitable for budget limited small and medium-sized customers and entry-level scenarios in emerging markets, in compliance with IEC 60871.
SVC (Semi Controlled Hybrid): Medium cost, continuous regulation (response 20-40ms), suitable for moderate fluctuating loads, with a small amount of harmonics, suitable for traditional industrial transformation, in compliance with IEC 61921.
SVG (Fully Controlled Active): High cost but excellent performance, fast response (≤ 5ms), high-precision stepless compensation, strong low-voltage ride through capability, suitable for impact/new energy loads, low harmonic, compact design, in line with CE/UL/KEMA, is the preferred choice for high-end markets and new energy projects.
Selection core: Choose capacitor cabinet for steady-state load, SVC for moderate fluctuation, SVG for dynamic/high-end demand, all of which need to match international standards such as IEC.
