  2. HVDC converter station - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HVDC_converter_station

    A single-phase, three-winding converter transformer. The converter transformers step up the voltage of the AC supply network. Using a star-to-delta or "wye-delta" connection of the transformer windings, the converter can operate with 12 pulses for each cycle in the AC supply, which eliminates numerous harmonic current components. The insulation ...

  3. HVDC converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HVDC_converter

    An HVDC converter converts electric power from high voltage alternating current (AC) to high-voltage direct current (HVDC), or vice versa. HVDC is used as an alternative to AC for transmitting electrical energy over long distances or between AC power systems of different frequencies. [1]

  4. High-voltage direct current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-voltage_direct_current

    Long distance HVDC lines carrying hydroelectricity from Canada's Nelson River to this converter station where it is converted to AC for use in southern Manitoba's grid. A high-voltage direct current (HVDC) electric power transmission system uses direct current (DC) for electric power transmission, in contrast with the more common alternating current (AC) transmission systems. [1]

  5. Nelson River DC Transmission System - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nelson_River_DC...

    Bipole 1 consists of six 6-pulse converter groups at each end (three in series per pole), each originally rated at 150 kV DC, 1800 A. [6] Each converter group can be bridged at the DC side with a vacuum switch. Subsequent upgrades have increased the current rating to 2000 A and the voltage rating of most equipment to 166 kV per bridge (i.e ...

  6. McNeill HVDC Back-to-back station - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McNeill_HVDC_Back-to-back...

    This is one of the lowest ESCR values ever achieved with a line-commutated HVDC converter. McNeill was also the first HVDC station to use three-phase, four-winding converter transformers. The transformers, which are connected to 138 kV on the Alberta side and 230 kV on the Saskatchewan side, are each equipped with a 25 kV tertiary winding (to ...

  7. Valve hall - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valve_hall

    High voltage bushings are supported through the walls of the valve hall, to allow connections between the converter transformers on the one side and the DC switchyard on the other. Beside the valve hall there is often an additional building, in which are control electronics, equipment for valve cooling and valve monitoring, station service ...

  8. Voltage converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage_converter

    Switched-mode power supplies have become widespread in the early twenty-first century; they are smaller and lighter than the once-universal transformer converters, and are often designed to work from AC mains at any voltage between 100 and 250 V. Additionally, because they are typically rectified to operate at a DC voltage, they are minimally ...

    The Fengxia (inverter) converter station is located some 45 km south-east from the centre of Shanghai and feeds power to the Nanhui AC substation via three 500 kV AC lines. Much of the DC equipment at the Fengxia station was provided by ABB , including the thyristor valves and converter transformers. [ 5 ]
