DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS
[0017] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0018] The present utility model provides a photovoltaic grid-connected box as Figures 1 - 3 shown, including:
[0019] Cabinet 1, on the surface of the cabinet 1, a cabinet door 2 is hinged through a hinge, and a waterproof sealing ring is provided at the closing part of the cabinet door 2 and the cabinet 1. Inside the top of the cabinet 1, an installation chamber 4 and a meter chamber 5 are separated by a first partition 3. Inside the installation chamber 4, several installation brackets 6 for installing current transformers are provided. Inside the meter chamber 5, a metering connection box 7 is installed. Inside the bottom of the cabinet 1, a switch chamber 9 and a power connection chamber 10 are separated by a second partition 8. Inside the switch chamber 9, a knife switch 11 for disconnecting the circuit is installed. Inside the power connection chamber 10, a first circuit breaker 12 is installed.
[0020] Inside the meter chamber 5, an electric energy meter 13 is installed. The electric energy meter 13 can accurately measure the electric energy generated by the photovoltaic system. By accurately measuring the power generation, users can clearly understand the power generation efficiency and performance of the photovoltaic system. Inside the power connection chamber 10, a surge protector 14 and a second circuit breaker 15 are also installed. Since the photovoltaic grid-connected box is usually installed outdoors and is easily affected by lightning strikes, the surge protector 14 can quickly introduce the powerful lightning current into the ground when a lightning strike occurs, protecting the electrical equipment inside the photovoltaic grid-connected box from being damaged by lightning strikes;
[0021] The first circuit breaker 12 and the second circuit breaker 15 adopt professional DC high-voltage circuit breakers, and the DC withstand voltage value is not less than DC1000V, which is safe and reliable.
[0022] On the surface of the cabinet 1 and at the bottoms of the switch chamber 9 and the power connection chamber 10, inlet holes 16 are provided. Through the setting of the inlet holes 16, specific channels can be provided for external power lines and signal lines to enter the cabinet 1. By setting the inlet holes 16 at the bottoms of the switch chamber 9 and the power connection chamber 10, the lines can enter from below and be connected to the equipment inside the cabinet 1, avoiding the lines being distributed around the cabinet 1 in a messy manner.
[0023] On the top of the cabinet 1, a top cover 17 is provided, and a ventilation mesh plate 18 is provided on the surface of the top cover 17. Ventilation holes are provided inside the top cover 17. The wind entering through the ventilation mesh plate 18 blows into the ventilation holes and then blows into the cabinet 1 through the ventilation holes, which can dissipate heat from the equipment inside the cabinet 1.
[0024] On both side surfaces of the cabinet 1, several fixing ears 19 are connected. The cabinet 1 can be installed by passing bolts through the fixing ears 19.
[0025] On the surface of the cabinet door 2, a transparent window 20 is provided. Through the transparent window 20, operators can directly observe the operating state of the equipment inside the photovoltaic grid-connected box without opening the cabinet door 2, so as to detect abnormal situations in time.
[0026] This photovoltaic grid-connected box has a compact structure inside the box body 1. It can access multiple solar photovoltaic arrays simultaneously. The maximum current of each path can reach 11A, which can meet the needs of different users. Moreover, sensors and monitoring and display modules can be configured according to needs to measure and monitor the current of each path. It can remotely record and display the operating status without going to the site, facilitating remote control, professional data monitoring, and fault diagnosis of the power station, and can greatly improve the operating efficiency and management effect of the power station;
[0027] It is equipped with standardized protection components such as the first circuit breaker 12, the second circuit breaker 15, the knife switch 11, the surge protector 14, etc. It can safely monitor and protect the direct current generated by the photovoltaic components, and can ensure that the photovoltaic system is easy to cut off the circuit during maintenance, faults, and inspections. Moreover, the equipment in the box body 1 is connected in a plug-and-play manner, making on-site installation and debugging very convenient. At the same time, the internal components are reasonably distributed, facilitating later maintenance and upgrading;
[0028] The power input of the photovoltaic system is controlled by the first circuit breaker 12 and the second circuit breaker 15 to control the on-off of the direct current generated by the photovoltaic components. When faults such as overcurrent and short circuit occur in the photovoltaic system, it can automatically trip and cut off the circuit, thereby protecting the system equipment and lines. Then, the operator can operate the knife switch 11 to completely isolate the photovoltaic system from the power supply, providing an obvious disconnection point to ensure safety, thus protecting the safety of the equipment. The surge protector 14 will automatically act when there is an overvoltage impact (such as transient overvoltage like lightning), introducing the overvoltage to the ground to protect the system equipment. And if the overvoltage persists or the surge protector 14 is damaged, the circuit can also be automatically disconnected through the first circuit breaker 12 and the second circuit breaker 15 to prevent further damage to the system caused by the overvoltage. The first circuit breaker 12 and the second circuit breaker 15 automatically trip and disconnect to cut off the circuit and protect the system equipment.
[0029] Finally, it should be noted that the above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, for those skilled in the art, they can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
