Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of power system technology, and in particular to a communication system for power acquisition and control of multi-source systems. Background Technology

[0002] In recent years, with the rapid development of my country's economy, the demand for electricity has been increasing, the scale of the power grid is constantly expanding, and the construction and maintenance of power grids in complex terrain conditions are also increasing. There are a large number of transmission lines, which are widely distributed and usually cross various complex environments and important facilities such as mountains, rivers, railways, and highways. They are susceptible to damage from various natural and man-made environments, which affects the safety of power supply.

[0003] With the continuous advancement of energy technology and the widespread application of renewable energy, power acquisition and control technology for multi-source systems has gradually become a core issue in the field of energy management. Multi-source systems typically include various types of power sources, such as photovoltaic modules, energy storage batteries, and inverters, which provide power to the system under their respective applicable conditions. To ensure stable system operation and efficient energy utilization, it is necessary to accurately acquire and effectively control the output power of these power sources.

[0004] Traditional power acquisition and control systems often employ a single communication method and simple control strategies, making them ill-suited to the complexity and diversity of multi-source systems. Furthermore, traditional sensors and signal conditioning circuits may not provide sufficiently high accuracy and stability, leading to errors in the acquired power data. Simultaneously, traditional analog-to-digital converters may not meet the demands of high-speed data acquisition, limiting the system's real-time performance.

[0005] In terms of power control, traditional systems often employ a single adjustment method, such as changing voltage or current to regulate output power. This approach may not achieve precise control of the power source. Furthermore, traditional systems also have safety vulnerabilities, such as a lack of effective fault detection and disconnection mechanisms, which could lead to the system continuing to operate under abnormal conditions, causing equipment damage or even safety accidents.
