1. Functional Area Division

• The cabinet interior includes the busbar compartment, relay and instrument compartment, switch compartment, cable compartment, control compartment, and air chamber. Each area is separated by partition plates, with clear functions and no interference.

• The busbar compartment is located in the upper part, with the relay and instrument compartment on one side and the switch compartment at the bottom. One side of the switch compartment sequentially has the control compartment and the air chamber, while the other side is the cable compartment.

2. Core Components of Each Area

• Busbar Compartment: Contains busbars, the first temperature sensor, and the fan set electrically connected to the PLC controller.

• Relay and Instrument Compartment: Houses relays for collecting equipment operating status (e.g., current, voltage, power).

• Switch Compartment: Equipped with the load switch set, the second temperature sensor, and the humidity sensor. The load switch set is connected to the busbar compartment via the insulator set (with three interval insulators) and is connected to fuses, the operating mechanism, and the current transformer. A frame is provided between the current transformer and the cabinet body.

• Control Compartment: Contains the circuit board and the PLC controller. The circuit board integrates the data storage module, wireless transmission module, and wireless reception module. The data storage module is connected to the relays, the first temperature sensor, the second temperature sensor, and the humidity sensor. The wireless reception module is connected to the PLC controller.

• Air Chamber: One side is connected to the switch compartment via the first partition plate, and the other side has the air inlet mesh. The first partition plate has a return air outlet and a supply air outlet, equipped with the first fan and second fan respectively (both electrically connected to the PLC controller). The first fan is connected to the moisture absorption plate, located between the second fan and the air inlet mesh.

• Cable Compartment: Houses the interconnected earthing switch, lightning arrester, and cable.

3. Cabinet Body ug Profile Structure

• The cabinet body is formed by riveting several frame plates. Both the frame plates and the frame use the profile body.

• The four corners of the profile body have plug-in blocks. The outer wall of the plug-in block is inclined relative to the profile body, with a first through hole inside and limit plates on both sides. The center has a second through hole; its top and bottom cross-section is an isosceles trapezoid, and both sides are concave arcs. Both sides of the profile body also have concave arc plates with several waist-shaped mounting holes.

II. Working Principle ug Advantages

1. Assembly Method

   The profile bodies achieve quick connection via the plug-in blocks with limit plates, and are then riveted and fixed using corner connecting pieces through the waist-shaped mounting holes on the concave arc plates. The assembly process is convenient and stable, also providing shock resistance, lower cost and weight, and ease of transportation.

2. Operation and Intelligent Control Process

• The busbar compartment connects multiple ring main units. The load switch set connects to the busbar compartment via the insulator set. The fuse disconnects the circuit by melting its element when current exceeds the limit. The operating mechanism performs closing and opening operations. The current transformer proportionally converts a large primary current to a small secondary current, protecting the measurement circuit, and transmits signals to the earthing switch, lightning arrester, and cable in the cable compartment.

• The relays collect equipment operating status and transmit it to the data storage module on the circuit board. This module also stores temperature signals from the first and second temperature sensors and the humidity signal from the humidity sensor. These are then sent in real-time via the wireless transmission module to a base station or control terminal for remote monitoring.

• The control terminal can send commands to the PLC controller via the wireless reception module, or the PLC controller can make automatic judgments: When heat dissipation is needed, it activates the fan set for internal circulation heat dissipation, or starts the second fan to draw air through the inlet mesh, dehumidify it via the moisture absorption plate, and supply it into the cabinet for external circulation heat dissipation. When the temperature does not meet the condition for starting the second fan, only the first fan can be activated to dehumidify the moisture absorption plate, reducing energy consumption while avoiding moisture introduction.

3. Core Advantages

   Real-time monitoring and intelligent control of the cabinet's temperature, humidity, and equipment operating status are achieved. This ensures electrical safety while reducing energy consumption by activating equipment on demand, balancing practicality and energy efficiency.
