Contents of this chapter
This chapter provides an overview of the PVS-100/120 medium voltage compact skid
(MVCS). It also includes layout, type designation label and type designation information.
Product overview
The PVS-100/120 medium voltage compact skid connects a group of inverters to a medium
voltage power grid. This solution is constructed around a skid house that contains:
• MV transformer—transforms low voltage from inverters to medium voltage for the
power grid.
• Auxiliary service transformer—supplies power to the AC cabinet and auxiliary
components of the MVCS.
• MV switchgear—connects to the power grid. It is also the main protecting, switching,
breaking and disconnecting equipment of the medium-voltage side of the solar power
plant.
• AC cabinet—contains all parallel connections to the inverter inputs and the auxiliary
service boards (required for the autonomous function of the MVCS). Note that the AC
cabinet also includes an additional space for customer use (e.g. communication board,
etc.).
External dimensions
The MVCS is constructed over a skid suitable for transportation inside a 20 HC container
with,
• External dimension (length, width, height) = 5700 x 2150 x 2500 mm
• Total weight = 11 ton.
