Power Utility UPS for Substations and Power Plants

Relays, SCADA, RTUs and communication equipment in a substation need clean AC power when station supply is disturbed. Our P-series power utility UPS is built for that control-room duty.

What goes wrong

Typical power problems on these sites.

Switching transients

Breaker operations and faults inject surges and spikes into the station AC supply.

Loss of station supply

When the auxiliary transformer drops out, SCADA and communications must keep reporting.

Electrical noise

High-voltage yards create interference that unprotected control electronics pick up.

What we would propose

  1. Protected loads (relays, SCADA, RTU, telecom)
  2. Total load in kVA
  3. Input supply (AC voltage, or DC battery bus if used)
  4. Required backup time
  5. Cabinet size or panel layout limits
  6. Utility specification, if any

Questions

What is the difference between a power utility UPS and a standard online UPS?

A power utility UPS uses a transformer-based design with an isolated output and is built for the switching noise and continuous duty of substations. A standard online UPS is aimed at IT rooms with cleaner supplies.

Can the UPS report to the substation SCADA?

Yes. Status and alarms are available over Modbus via RS485, dry contacts and SNMP.

What capacities does the P-series cover?

The P-series covers 1 to 120 kVA. For larger power plant loads we use our transformer-based industrial range up to 800 kVA.
