Abstract:At present, the type of transformers which are in operation used in an early 220 kV smart substation is electronic transformer. This type of electronic transformer and its supporting secondary equipment are intelligent equipment produced in the early stage of technological immaturity. The device itself has defects. In addition, it has been in operation for many years, and its working conditions can not meet the requirements of stable operation, which lays hidden dangers for the safe operation of regional power grid. It is urgent to carry out the commissioning, rectification and transformation of electronic transformer and its supporting equipment of the whole station. Aiming at the preliminary preparation of transformation and the key technical problems in the transformation process, solutions and thinking summary are put forward in order to improve the safety, feasibility and technology in the transformation process of smart substation.
