Application Case Studies
Application Scenario 1: Maintenance-Free Outdoor Substation Voltage Measurement
Utilities deploy JDZW-35R/280 epoxy cast-resin voltage transformers in 35kV outdoor substations where maintenance-free operation is critical. The epoxy cast-resin insulation system eliminates the need for periodic oil testing and maintenance, reducing operational costs and improving reliability. The 1000VA thermal limit output ensures reliable performance even under heavy burden conditions. The built-in fuse protection provides integrated overcurrent protection, eliminating the need for external fuses and simplifying the protection scheme. The compact design allows installation in space-constrained substations where oil-immersed transformers would be impractical.
Application Scenario 2: Ground Fault Detection with Integrated Protection
Industrial facilities with 35kV distribution networks require reliable ground fault detection with integrated protection. The JDZX(F)W-35R model with residual voltage winding (35/√3 : 0.1/√3 : 0.1/√3 : 0.1/3kV ratio) provides dedicated ground fault detection capability through the open-delta secondary winding configuration. The residual voltage winding detects zero-sequence voltage during ground faults, enabling protective relays to quickly isolate faulty sections and prevent cascading failures. The epoxy cast-resin insulation system provides maintenance-free operation, while the built-in fuse protection ensures reliable overcurrent protection without external components.
