Uninterruptible power supply for substation

Why should you install a UPS system in a substation?

With UPS installations in plants and substations, you can guard against downtime throughout your entire infrastructure. Avoid the irony of a power plant without power with uninterruptible power supplies to ensure the continuity of the utility’s supply and minimize disruptions.

What is an uninterruptible power supply (UPS)?

The uninterruptible power supply (UPS) provides a dependable backup power to the protective relay (s) in the event the primary power source is lost. The UPS was specifically designed for use with the ABB Distribution Unit (DPU) and the ABB Integrated Microprocessor Protective Relay System (IMPRS) relays.

What is a three-phase uninterruptable power supply (UPS)?

Our integrated circuits and reference designs for three-phase uninterruptable power supplies (UPS) help you design reliable and robust hardware with very low input and output total harmonic distortion (THD) and increased efficiency. Modern three-phase UPS designs often require: Higher performance and reliable IGBT and MOSFET gate drivers.

Do distribution substations need a DG backup?

It is recommended that each distribution substation should have its own DG Backup so that in case of mains power failure local DG sets are available as backup as per the normal practice. It is not recommended to have a centralized DG Backup to supply 11 KV DG Power to the distribution substations.
