Abstract:In the field of low and medium voltage reactive power compensation, the switching of capacitor groups based on phase-controlled switching technology is a better way than others. However, the accuracy and reliability of contacts switching point are the key factors affecting the work efficiency. It is technically difficult to meet all the requirements. In recent years, ABB has proposed a phase-choosing model based on the hybrid device composed of semiconductor and mechanical switches, which has a certain effect on suppressing the transient effect of reactive power compensation. Based on the ABB model, this paper presents an optimization model of Y-connection hybrid switching system of vacuum switch and power electronic device, and studies the switching strategy of the model. The simulation and the tests show its effectiveness in suppressing transient problems. Compared with the traditional phase-controlled switch technology, the new scheme will help the switch work in a wide phase range for avoiding transient effect. It is demanded that the new method has more tolerance to the dispersion of the operating mechanism, and more benefit to the realization of the flexible phase -choosing technology.
