Photovoltaic box-type substation (also called new energy pre-installed substation) is an all-in-one high-voltage/low-voltage power distribution unit specifically engineered for renewable energy generation systems. It integrates high-voltage switchgear, transformer core, protective fuses in the oil tank, low-voltage switchgear and all necessary auxiliary equipment into a single compact enclosure. As a dedicated 10kV 35kV step-up transformer substation, it elevates the voltage output from photovoltaic grid-tie inverters or AC generators to 10kV or 35kV, enabling efficient power transmission and grid connection. This prefabricated solution has become the ideal supporting equipment for modern solar power projects worldwide.

Compact footprint & superior heat dissipation: Space-saving structure with external radiators significantly reduces land acquisition costs while ensuring optimal thermal management.
Advanced transformer technology: New-generation transformer design with rational structure guarantees long-term safe and stable operation.
Oil-insulated high-voltage system: Transformer oil serves as the insulation medium for 10kV/35kV components, drastically reducing required safety clearances and overall equipment size.
Fully sealed oil tank: Complete isolation from the atmosphere minimizes oil oxidation and moisture ingress, enhancing system reliability and extending service life. Easy-to-disassemble plate-type radiators simplify maintenance procedures.
Durable enclosure: Special shot-peening and coating process provides excellent corrosion, UV and sand erosion resistance for harsh outdoor environments.
High-performance low-voltage protection: Latest intelligent circuit breakers and molded case air switches offer superior breaking capacity and comprehensive protection features.
Remote monitoring capability: Equipped with communication-enabled pressure gauges and thermometers, plus travel switches on load switches for real-time remote monitoring, operation and maintenance.
Industry-leading protection: Enclosures achieve IP54 for high/low voltage chambers and IP68 for the transformer body, ensuring reliable operation in extreme conditions.
