3 Product Description

3.1 Transformer Compact Station

The Transformer Compact Station is a transformer unit that steps up low voltage to medium voltage. The Transformer Compact Station contains low-voltage switchgear and, depending on the options ordered, may also contain medium-voltage switchgear.
The Transformer Compact Station is connected to CP inverters in the same power class. Inverters convert direct current to alternating current. The alternating current is then supplied to the transformer. The alternating current is transmitted from the transformer to the switchgear and fed into the power distribution grid.

7.2 Laying cables

7.2.1 Running Cables between the Low-Voltage Switchgear and the Inverter

☐ The AC cables are 3-phase cables. ☐ Between the low-voltage switchgear and the inverter there are three separate cable runs for the
AC cables, e. g. cable channels.
☐ The spacing between the cable runs must be at least twice the diameter of an AC cable.
Figure6: Arrangement of AC cables with three cables per line conductor (example).
Maintain cable clearances
Run an L1, L2 and L3 line conductor in each cable run. The spacing between the cable pairs must be at least twice the diameter of a cable. This prevents current imbalances.
• Run the cables as described.
