Product Overview
YBW series prefabricated substations integrate high-voltage devices, transformers and low-voltage devices into compact complete distribution units, to receive and distribute power for high-rise buildings, residential zones, industrial parks, mines, oil fields and temporary construction sites.They feature high integration, compact layout, easy maintenance and mobility.
Occupying 1/10-1/5 of the land area of conventional masonry substations at the same capacity, they cut design workload, construction work and overall investment. Compatible with ring main, dual-power and radial terminal distribution systems, they are widely adopted for new build and upgrade of urban and rural substations.

Structural Features
- The enclosure has high-voltage, transformer and low-voltage compartments. Multiple supply modes, two transformer types and customizable low-voltage functions are available.
- Anti-misoperation interlocks are equipped in the high-voltage compartment. Transformers can be track-mounted for easy removal, with built-in compartment lighting for convenient maintenance.
- Combined natural and forced ventilation with thermostatic fans ensures reliable operation.
- Color steel casing provides corrosion, water and dust protection for long outdoor use.
