Compact substation
The Compact Substation is a connection-ready cabin, designed for secondary power distribution in industrial applications and in the oil & gas sector. It is a robust, factory-integrated metallic enclosure, engineered to ensure high safety, compact configuration, and fast installation, and designed to operate even in remote or harsh environments.
Key components include:- Gas-insulated (GIS) medium-voltage switchgear (up to 40.5 kV)
- Low-voltage switchboard
- Protection relays and automation system
- Auxiliary systems and internal climate control
- Active fire suppression system, typically based on gas-extinguishing technologies
- Power Distribution Tranformers or auxiliary transformer
STC-BOX
It is a complete, pre-configured and ready to install substation.
OIL TRANSFORMER – SKID SOLUTION
The skid solution is a prefabricated installation-ready compact substation, designed to elevate energy from PV plants to elevating substations. It is equipped with Oil-type transformer - up to 10000kVA
DRY-TYPE TRANSFORMER – KIOSK SOLUTION
The Kiosk solution is a prefabricated plug-in compact substation, equipped with power distribution components, including Dry-type transformer - up to 5000kVA Our Compact Substations come fully pre-wired and installation-ready, minimizing on-site operations and ensuring efficient commissioning. The remote control system optionally integrated ensures higher efficiency and safety.
Technical features
The body structure (base, uprights, supports, roof) is made of steel sheets with a thickness of 25-30/10mm, Sendzimir SZ275 type, galvanized and coated with epoxy resin, suitable for outdoor installations in hostile environments
It can be supplied as a centralized inverter or as a string inverter.
Transportation methods: It can be lifted from lifting brackets and placed by a crane on the concrete foundation.
Alternatively, it can be dragged by a tractor. Dragging is done by attaching the steel holding lines with hooks to the ends of the cabin, where the anchoring points are.
