What components make up a Photovoltaic Prefabricated Cabin?
The term ‘prefabricated’ refers to the pre-manufacturing conducted by manufacturers of complete electrical equipment. Typically, clients send custom designs for customization. In the photovoltaic industry, prefabricated cabin substations generally consist of the cabin structure, relevant equipment cabinets, racks, and other distribution control devices. They also include auxiliary elements like lighting, air conditioning, and security systems. Manufacturers undertake prefabrication based on the specific requirements of the photovoltaic project and distribution efficiency.
As a large-scale containerized substation, a prefabricated cabin integrates various advantages of prefabrication. In the case of Photovoltaic Prefabricated Cabins, the modular combination of structure and equipment caters to the unique demands of photovoltaic power generation and energy management. This approach offers superior cost-effectiveness and requires less maintenance compared to conventional civil-built substations, making it a preferred choice in the current photovoltaic industry. Many manufacturers of complete electrical equipment are willing to invest in equipment, funds, etc., to engage in this endeavor.
The ‘Prefabricated Cabin’ is an intelligent outdoor substation promoted by the State Grid Corporation of China, founded on the core concept of ‘standardized deployment.’ By combining the large-scale features of civil-built substations with the advantages of containerized substations, it has found friendly applications in areas such as photovoltaic power generation.
The characteristics of a Photovoltaic Prefabricated Cabin are:
Prefabrication entails manufacturing and assembling all components, including the cabin structure, internal equipment, and installation wiring, in the factory. Established and well-equipped manufacturers produce these components in-house, ensuring high cost-effectiveness for prefabricated cabins. They then transport them directly to the construction site for wiring, installation, and use.
Prefabricated cabins boast excellent fire resistance. Due to outdoor usage, the cabin’s structure requires special protective features. Manufacturers use double-layer steel plates with embedded fire-resistant materials for the wall panels, providing a fire resistance of over three hours.
Prefabricated cabins boast a long operational lifespan. With their high structural strength, excellent fire resistance, insulation, and corrosion resistance, photovoltaic prefabricated cabins have a lifespan exceeding 30 years.
