KTPS, KTPS2

Pole-mounted packaged transformer substations (KTPS and KTPS2) are a crucial element of modern power supply systems, designed for efficient and reliable electricity distribution. They perform the key function of converting high voltage from power lines to a safe voltage for end-consumers. These substations are ideally suited for use in various conditions, ensuring stable power supply for both domestic needs and small industrial facilities. KTPS and KTPS2 are designed to receive electrical energy from a three-phase alternating current at an industrial frequency of 10(6) kV, convert it to 380/220 V, and then supply power to consumers of various categories. KTPS are designed for single-pole installation, while KTPS2 are for double-pole installation. Normal operation of the substations is ensured in areas with a temperate climate.

Structural Features

KTPS and KTPS2 are designed to meet requirements for reliability and ease of installation on standard power line poles. Their construction ensures safe operation and easy access for maintenance, while occupying minimal space. The well-thought-out arrangement of substation elements on the pole or poles promotes efficient use of space and simplifies connection to existing networks.

• Structurally, the substations are designed for installation on reinforced concrete poles for overhead power lines of types SV 105, SK 105, and other types.
• KTPS is installed on a single pole, while KTPS2 is installed on two poles. Substations with capacities from 160 to 400 kV·A inclusive must be installed on two poles.
• The main equipment: high-voltage device (UHV), power transformer, and low-voltage switchgear (LVSG), are mounted on metal structures reinforced on the pole(s).
• The UHV consists of two frames, on which high-voltage equipment such as pin insulators, surge arresters, and high-voltage fuses for protecting the power transformer are placed.
• The transformer is installed on a metal bracket (for KTPS) or on a frame (for KTPS2). The installation height of the transformer complies with the requirements of the Electrical Installation Code (PUЕ) to ensure a safe distance to live parts.
• The LVSG cabinet is made of galvanized iron and is installed on a metal bracket at a height convenient for servicing from the ground or using scaffolding.
• KTPS2 includes a ladder interlock for climbing to the service platform, which prevents access when the high-voltage line disconnector is energized, providing additional safety.
• The 10(6) kV voltage connection is made from the power line pole, and the 0.4 kV voltage from the power transformer to the LVSG is routed by insulated wire in a protective casing. 0.4 kV cables enter the LVSG through sealed entries.

Advantages of Using KTPS, KTPS2 Substations

Choosing pole-mounted packaged transformer substations like KTPS and KTPS2 offers a number of significant advantages, especially for specific application scenarios. Their design and characteristics make them an effective and convenient solution for providing electricity to various facilities.

• Ease of Installation: These substations are designed for quick and convenient installation directly on existing or specially installed power line poles.
• Space Saving: Placing equipment on a pole significantly saves ground space, which is an important factor in areas with limited territory.
• Cost Reduction: Compared to capital substations, pole-mounted substations generally have lower equipment and installation costs, making them an economically viable solution for facilities with moderate power consumption.
• Operational Readiness for Connection: Thanks to their modular design and ease of installation, connecting consumers to the electrical grid using KTPS/KTPS2 can be done relatively quickly.
• Operational Safety: Design solutions, including the built-in interlocks (as in KTPS2), enhance the safety of maintenance personnel during work.
• Reliability in Various Conditions: The substations are designed to operate in temperate climates and withstand significant wind and ice loads, demonstrating their reliability in challenging weather conditions.
• Configuration Flexibility: The possibility of manufacturing both in a basic version and according to individual orders allows for optimal selection of the substation for specific consumer needs.

Areas of Application

Pole-mounted packaged transformer substations KTPS and KTPS2, thanks to their technical characteristics and ease of installation, find widespread application in various industries. They are an optimal solution for ensuring reliable power supply where rapid network deployment is required or where space for traditional substations is limited.

• Power supply for agricultural consumers, such as farms and garden plots.
• Providing electricity to individual settlements and small industrial facilities.
• Powering infrastructure facilities, including road lighting and railway objects.
• Use for power supply to temporary facilities and mobile power consumers, for example, at construction sites or for seasonal pumping stations.
• Application in urban electrical networks for supplying small consumers.

Compliance with Standards

Pole-mounted packaged transformer substations KTPS and KTPS2 are developed and manufactured in compliance with current state standards and technical specifications, which guarantees their quality, reliability, and operational safety. Compliance with regulatory documents confirms their suitability for use in domestic electrical networks.

• Climatic execution “U” of placement category “1” complies with the requirements of GOST 15150-69, which defines operating conditions in a temperate climate outdoors.
• The transformer installation height complies with the requirements of the Electrical Installation Code (PUЕ) regarding safe distances to live parts.
• Production can be carried out in accordance with Technical Specifications (TU), for example, TU U 3.49-0575.8084-023-96.
• The design and manufacturing may take into account the requirements of other standards related to packaged switchgear and general electrical safety requirements, such as GOST 14695-90, GOST 14693-90, GOST 12.2.007.0-75, and GOST 12.2.007.4-75.
