I. Overview
The Intelligent Reactive Power Dynamic Compensation Device adopts power electronic switching capacitor technology and direct sampling technology for random reactive power. It features surge current resistance, anti-interference, reliable operation, and switching overvoltage resistance. It is particularly suitable for reactive power compensation in urban and rural power grids, rapid compensation in oil fields, and reactive power compensation in internal power grids of industrial and mining enterprises. It can be installed on the electric pole of outdoor pole-mounted transformers with a voltage level of 10/0.4kV or 0.6/0.4kV, and has a wide range of applications.
Meanwhile, this device is equipped with the function of real-time monitoring and displaying three-phase power parameters, which can display three-phase voltage, current, power factor, frequency, active power, reactive power, and harmonic distortion in the circuit at any time. It is provided with an RS485 interface and supports functions such as MODBUS/JBUS interfaces, enabling communication with upper computers in accordance with protocol specifications.
In addition, the XZW Reactive Power Compensation Device is equipped with short-circuit protection, overload protection, and leakage protection functions, and also has the characteristics of an integrated power distribution cabinet. This device is a domestically leading contactless dynamic reactive power compensation device.

IV. Structure
The cabinet structure is available in vertical and horizontal types, featuring a fully enclosed design with front and rear doors. A waterproof groove for water resistance is provided at the joint of the door frame. The top is equipped with a brim-shaped top cover and air vents; a wire mesh is installed to prevent the intrusion of foreign objects. The power supply part enters through the waterproof wire inlet hole at the upper part, and the wire outlet hole at the bottom of the cabinet is used for wire outgoing. The cabinet has anti-rust, waterproof, and protective properties, with an protection class of IP54. Main Working Principles and Operation:
