Single-Phase Distribution Transformers: Ang Key sa Flexible ug Efficient Deployment sa EV Charging Infrastructure
Single-Phase Distribution Transformers: The Key to Flexible and Efficient Deployment of EV Charging Infrastructure
Sa pag-install sa EV charging infrastructure, importante na mapalampas ang mga limitasyon sa grid ug makamit ang cost-effective nga flexible layout. Ang tradisyonal nga three-phase power supply solutions kadalasan nagpakita og mga hamubo sama sa mahimong dugay nga installation cycles ug extensive nga mga modipikasyon, lalo na sa imbalanced distributed scenarios. Ang single-phase distribution transformers nagsilbi isip vital nga complementary solution ngadto sa traditional nga solusyon pinaagi sa ilang unique nga mga abilidad.
Application Pain Points: Value Anchors of Single-Phase Transformers
- Low-Voltage Grid Capacity Bottlenecks
- Ang residential/commercial transformers madaling mabubuhat, suporta lang 2–3 ka fast-charging piles bago matumanan ang limits.
- Ang capacity upgrades mogasto og 6–12 ka bulan, dili makahatag og husto nga suporta sa surging charging demand.
- Distributed Power Supply Challenges
- Ang mga roadside community spots o scattered mall parking mas daghan sa 500m gikan sa power sources.
- Ang cost sa three-phase cable laying ¥800–1,200/m, dili ekonomiko.
- Legacy Urban Grid Constraints
- Ang historic districts adunay complex sub-50mm² wiring.
- Ang three-phase retrofits gigubitog sa road excavation (>3-month approvals).
- North America/Japan-South Korea Demands
- Ang 120V/240V single-phase dominance sigurado ang compatibility.
- Ang 15–25kW DC fast chargers sobrepasa sa 60% market share (2023 North American Charging Alliance data).
