What are the changes in the application area of transformers?

Past:

• Power direction one way• Redundant transformer systems• Limited transformer sizes (short distances)• Easy logic of transformers are mostly enough• Ideal locations preferred

What are the changes in the application area of transformers?

Now / Future:

• Power direction in both ways Smart regulation devices are necessary

• Varity of different and complicated system applications are gainsinstantly Smart regulation devices are necessary

• Demand of “bigger” transformers are increasing Investment risks are increasing

• Realizing of projects in new roughly climate areas• Amalgamation of different energy grids / countries• specific price pressure

Each transformer will work with a higher maximum load

What will be the conclusion based on this facts?

1. Automatic voltage regulator which combines individual customerrequests with complex hard and software solutions

2. Transformer Monitoring System (TMM)3. New system solutions for Low Voltage grids are necessary

Influence of the distributed generation of the voltage on the MV grid

Depending on the level of load and generation the voltage exceeds certain limits

Solution: dynamic adjustment of the voltage setpoint in the substation

Standard Current Influence (setpoint voltage = f(I))

The active power is measured in theMV substation on the transformer feeder setpoint voltage raise on consumption setpoint voltage drop on generation

Extended Current Influence (setpoint voltage = f(I)+f(x))

In addition to the standard current influence the setpoint voltage ismodified by external signals (e.g. weather data)The following values can be used to modify the setpoint voltage (examples)

• Solar radiation, measured in the substation• Wind speed, measured in the substation• Weather data (real time or forecast) via SCADA

The usage of weather data enables the regulator to determine the generation without having measurementdata from the grid.

Additional possibilities to modifiy the setpoint voltage

Change between different setpoints by an externalsignal (e.g. a powerful generator with known or

predictable power output is switched on)Wide area voltage control, that means an externalinstance calculates the voltage setpoint and adjusts the

setpoint of the voltage regulators e.g. via SCADACurrent influence based on the load of one feeder ora group of feeders (current measurement e.g viaSCADA

(mA signal, IEC 61850, IEC 60870-5-101/103/104, DNP3.0, MODBUS))Setpoint adjustment by using online measurmentdata from important points of the grid (wide areavoltage control without external instance,measurement acquisition via mA Signal, IEC 61850, IEC60870-5-101/103/104, DNP 3.0, MODBUS)

Voltage regulation using REG - D™ (REG-DA)

Bi-Directional Load Flow Application

When the load flow is from left to the right (normal condition)most often it is the 11kV bus at right that is regulated for.However, if the consumption at right becomes weak and the load flows in the reverse direction, then it is preferable to regulate thevoltage at the 33kV bus on the left.The REG-D/-DA can be ordered with 2 voltage and 2 current inputs allowing the above scenario to be catered for in one device. This canprovide significant cost advantages for the user.If a line drop compensation scheme is required, to regulate the voltage at the load point this can also be catered for in either direction.
