Application of Cables in Wind Turbine Remote Monitoring Systems

1. Scene Introduction

With the transformation of the global energy structure and the rapid development of renewable energy, wind power, as a clean and renewable form of energy, has received widespread attention and application. As an important part of the intelligent management of wind farms, wind turbine remote monitoring system realizes remote monitoring and fault warning of wind turbines through real-time data collection, transmission and analysis, which is of great significance for improving the operational efficiency of wind farms and reducing operation and maintenance costs.

2. Pain point analysis

In the application of wind turbine remote monitoring system, cable as the medium of data transmission faces many challenges. First, wind farms are usually located in remote areas with harsh environmental conditions, and the cables need to withstand high and low temperatures, strong winds, rain and snow, electromagnetic interference and other natural factors. Secondly, the remote monitoring system requires high stability and real-time data transmission, and the performance of the cable directly affects the accuracy of the data and the reliability of the system. In addition, the selection, installation and maintenance of cables are also the key links to ensure the normal operation of the remote monitoring system.

3. The wind turbine remote monitoring system on the cable requirements

Wind turbine remote monitoring system on the cable requirements are mainly reflected in the following aspects:
Electrical performance: the cable should have good electrical conductivity and electrical stability to ensure the accuracy and stability of data transmission.
Environmental adaptability: the cable should be able to work properly in harsh environments, including high temperature resistance, low temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, UV resistance and other characteristics.
Mechanical properties: the cable should have a certain degree of tensile strength and abrasion resistance to adapt to the complex installation and operation environment of the wind farm.

Flame retardant properties: the cable should have excellent flame retardant properties to reduce the risk of fire.

 

4. Certification Standards

To ensure that the performance and quality of wind turbine generator monitoring system cables meet the highest standards in the industry, TST CABLES products fully comply with the following international and domestic certification standards:

UL Certification: Underwriters Laboratories conducts rigorous testing of the electrical and mechanical properties of the cables to ensure that they meet safety standards.

CE certification: A mark of conformity with the requirements of the European Union directives, indicating that the cable meets the requirements of the European Union’s regulations on safety, health, and environmental protection.

RoHS certification: a directive restricting the use of certain hazardous substances, ensuring that cables are environmentally friendly during production and use.

In addition, our cables meet industry-specific standards such as IEC 60228, IEC 60754, IEC 60332 (standard for combustion performance of cables) and EN 50264, GB/T 2423.1, GB/T 2423.2, IEC 60068-2-1, IEC 60068-2-2, EN 60068-2-1, EN 60068-2-2, etc. to ensure the safety and reliability of the cables in applications.

In addition, the cable products also need to pass the specific certification of the wind power industry to ensure that they are adapted to the special operating environment of wind farms.
