Working Principle

Using Silicon Carbide (SiC) power devices as the core, the GY-SVG-SiC connects a voltage source converter (VSC) to the power grid via an LCL filter in parallel. Its working principle is to dynamically and accurately compensate for reactive power in the grid system by adjusting the amplitude and phase of the output voltage on the AC side of the converter. The transient response time is less than 50 µs, and the full response time is less than 10 ms, thereby completely avoiding over-compensation and under-compensation.

Key Performance Highlights

✔ SiC Power Devices & 30kHz Frequency

Utilizes the higher voltage withstand capability of SiC components. The 30kHz high switching frequency control algorithm minimizes output ripple current and maximizes dynamic response speed.

✔ DSP+CPLD Full-Digital Control

Features a three-level topology, advanced reactive power detection algorithm, and precise PWM control strategy for ultimate accuracy.

Frequently asked questions

1. What is the GY-SVG-SiC?

It is a silicon carbide (SiC) based Static Var Generator — a power-electronic reactive power compensation device that connects a voltage source converter in parallel with the grid. Using SiC power devices and a DSP+CPLD three-level control core, it dynamically generates capacitive or inductive reactive current to correct power factor, stabilize voltage and balance three-phase loads, with module peak efficiency up to 98.5% and up to 800 kvar per cabinet.

2. What functions does it provide?

Real-time reactive power compensation (rate ≥99%, power factor to ≥0.99), three-phase unbalance compensation (≤5% residual), neutral-line zero-sequence current filtering (3× phase capacity), voltage stabilization, dynamic compensation of impact/fluctuating loads (full response <10 ms, transient <50 µs), 100% current-limiting output and comprehensive protection. Two compensation modes are selectable.

3. Which parameters affect model selection?

Grid voltage (220V or 380V) and configuration (3P3W / 3P4W); required capacity in kvar (37/50 per 220V module, 75/100 per 380V module, up to 8 modules / 800 kvar per cabinet); compensation goal (reactive only vs reactive + unbalance); CT sampling scheme (LV- or HV-side); installation environment (ambient temperature, altitude derating, IP rating); form factor and cable entry; and communication / parallel-expansion needs.

4. What options are available?

Models: 220V (37/50 kvar) and 380V (75/100 kvar); form factor: wall-mounted or rack-mounte
