Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of power systems, and particularly to a horizontal busbar cabinet and an energy storage system. Background Art
[0002] The busbar cabinet is an important part of the energy storage system. The DC part of the battery is connected to the PCS (English name: Power Conversion System, Chinese name: Energy Storage Inverter, abbreviated as PCS) through the busbar cabinet for DC busbar connection. The PCS can control the charging and discharging processes of the storage battery and perform AC-DC conversion. In the absence of a power grid, it can directly supply power to AC loads.
[0003] The existing busbar cabinets are usually of an upright structure and occupy a large area during installation. They are usually not suitable for use environments with small size spaces. Moreover, the wiring methods of the PCS cables and the battery-side cables of the upright busbar cabinet are bottom-in and bottom-out, that is, the cables enter and exit from the bottom of the upright busbar cabinet. This wiring method easily makes the system wiring chaotic, thus posing certain potential safety hazards and being inconvenient for maintenance.
[0004] Therefore, how to provide a busbar cabinet with small space occupancy and capable of avoiding wiring interference is a technical problem that those skilled in the art urgently need to solve. Summary of the Invention

[0028] In the following description, specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present application. However, the present application can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar generalizations without departing from the connotation of the present application. Therefore, the present application is not limited by the specific implementation manners disclosed below.
[0029] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 .
[0030] A specific implementation manner of the present application provides a horizontal busbar cabinet, including a cabinet body 1. The cabinet body 1 is preferably in a cuboid structure and can be made of sheet metal parts. In order to facilitate the installation of electrical components, a cabinet door is provided at the top of the cabinet body 1. One side of the cabinet door can be hinged to the cabinet body 1. The cabinet door can be a double - door or a single - door, which can be specifically selected according to actual needs. As Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, a battery-side positive-wire hole 2 and a battery-side negative-wire hole 3 are provided on the first side of the cabinet body 1, and a PCS positive-wire hole 6 and a PCS negative-wire hole 7 are provided on the second side of the cabinet body 1. The first side and the second side are different sides of the cabinet body 1. For example, the first side of the cabinet body 1 is the front panel 4 of the cabinet body 1, and the second side is the rear panel of the cabinet body 1. Therefore, the battery-side positive-wire hole 2 and the battery-side negative-wire hole 3 can be provided on the front panel 4 of the cabinet body 1, and the PCS positive-wire hole 6 and the PCS negative-wire hole 7 can be provided on the rear panel of the cabinet body 1. It can avoid the mutual interference between the PCS-side wiring and the battery-side wiring. In addition, since a horizontal busbar cabinet is adopted, it can be fixed on the ground of the energy storage system container during installation, or installed on the top or bottom of the battery rack. In addition, it can also be installed on the wall to reduce the space occupied by the busbar cabinet in the height direction.
[0031] In some embodiments, the first side and the second side are opposite sides of the cabinet body 1, or can be adjacent sides of the cabinet body 1. When provided on adjacent sides of the cabinet body 1, the cabinet body 1 can be installed at a corner position. When provided on opposite sides of the cabinet body 1, the cabinet body 1 can be installed on the ground, the indoor top or the wall.
[0032] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 shown, a secondary-wire routing hole 5 is further provided on the first side of the cabinet body 1. As Figure 2 shown, a secondary-wire reserved routing hole 8 is further provided on the second side of the cabinet body 1. The secondary-wire routing hole 5 and the secondary-wire reserved routing hole 8 are used for the secondary wire to pass through. The secondary wire refers to a low-voltage circuit line for control, signal transmission, and protection functions. A plurality of secondary-wire routing holes 5 can be provided on the first side of the cabinet body 1. In order to prevent multiple secondary wires from interfering with each other, a separator can be provided in the secondary-wire routing hole 5 so that there are multiple small holes in the secondary-wire routing hole 5. For example, a cross-shaped separator is provided in the secondary-wire routing hole 5. At this time, there are four small holes in the secondary-wire routing hole 5. In addition, in addition to the cross-shaped separator, a grid-shaped separator or other shaped separators can also be used, as long as the secondary-wire routing hole 5 can be divided into multiple small holes. Further, the separator can be detachably connected in the secondary-wire routing hole 5 to replace the separator with different numbers of small holes as needed, so as to improve the applicability of the secondary-wire routing hole 5 to different numbers of secondary wires. In addition, the design of the secondary-wire reserved routing hole 8 can refer to the above secondary-wire routing hole 5. When in use, the secondary-wire routing hole 5 can be selected for wiring, or the secondary-wire reserved routing hole 8 can be selected for wiring.
