In many cases, especially when conducting tests outdoors without a power source, the lack of a corresponding power supply often limits test results and significantly impacts the effectiveness and progress of the tests. When testing high and low voltage switchgear outdoors or in the early stages of a project, different switchgear operating power supplies vary, with power requirements ranging from AC220V, DC48V, DC110V, and DC220V. These various power supplies must be brought to the site, and sometimes no matching power supply is available nearby, causing significant inconvenience to the high and low voltage switchgear testing.

[0008] This solution's AC input design allows for connecting an external AC input to the switchgear, converting it into a DC output of varying voltage requirements. This design enhances the portable test power supply's scalability and improves its efficiency. The contactor design effectively avoids conflicts between battery module power supply and AC power supply.

[0009] Preferably, the portable test power supply further includes a monitoring module, which is connected to both the battery module and the power module. The monitoring module is used to monitor the battery current and battery operating condition, as well as the operating condition and load current of the power module.

[0010] Preferably, the power supply module includes a DC48V power supply module, a DC110V power supply module and a DC220V power supply module.

Figure 1 As shown, the portable test power supply includes a battery module, an inverter module MK1, and three power modules with different voltage levels: a DC48V power module MK2, a DC110V power module MK3, and a DC220V power module MK4. The battery module is connected to the inverter module, which is simultaneously connected to several power modules with different voltage levels, or to an AC output terminal. The power modules have DC output terminals. The battery module provides a DC48V DC power supply, while the inverter module converts the DC power from the power modules into AC power. The power modules then convert the AC power into a DC output of the corresponding voltage level. The AC power output from the inverter module is also directly used for the AC output. A battery switch ZK is provided between the battery module and the inverter module, and an AC switch KK is provided between the inverter module and the power module, or between the inverter module and the AC output terminal. The portable test power supply also includes an output switch QK, one end of which is connected to the power module or the AC output terminal, and the other end of which is connected to the power module or the AC input.

[0019] The battery module has a DC output. The portable test power supply primarily requires DC power of varying voltage levels. Therefore, the DC output is converted to AC power via an inverter module. The AC power is then converted to DC output of varying voltage levels via the power supply module. When AC output is required, the AC power converted by the inverter module can also be directly output. Therefore, regardless of the type and specification of operating power required on-site, the portable test power supply in this solution can meet the requirements.

[0021] This solution's AC input design allows for connecting an external AC input to the switchgear, converting it into a DC output of varying voltage requirements. This design enhances the portable test power supply's scalability and improves its efficiency. The contactor design effectively avoids conflicts between battery module power supply and AC power supply.

[0025] In this implementation, the portable test power supply has two working modes. In mode one, there is no AC power on site. The battery switch ZK, AC switch KK and output switch QK are closed. The DC48V battery module is converted into AC power through the inverter, and then the corresponding DC48V, DC110V and DC220V are obtained through the power module, or AC power is obtained directly. In mode two, there is AC power on site. The AC power is connected, the battery switch ZK and AC switch KK are disconnected, and the output switch QK is closed.
