Abstract: A method determines the overload capacity of a high-voltage device. The method includes creating a load forecast request for a predefined time period, determining an operational state of the high-voltage device by obtaining state parameters, transmitting the load forecast request and the state parameters at a request time to a load-forecasting model, and determining the maximum utilization in the predefined time period by the load-forecasting model, with which the overload capacity of a high-voltage device can be fully exploited. A lifetime consumption of the high-voltage device before the request time is derived from measured values by obtaining an actually consumed lifetime and the actually consumed lifetime is fed to the load-forecasting model as a state parameter. The load-forecasting model then determines the maximum overload capacity depending on the actually consumed lifetime.

Abstract: A method determines an overload capacity of at least one high-voltage device. In which method, measurement values are continuously recorded by sensors located in or on the high-voltage device. The measurement values and/or values derived therefrom are transmitted via a near field communication connection from the sensors to a communication unit of the high-voltage device. The communication unit is connected to a data processing cloud. For high-voltage devices, a load forecast request is created for a predetermined time-period and is transmitted to a data processing cloud. For each high-voltage device, a state parameter is determined in part based on the measurement values. The load forecast request and each state parameter are transmitted at a request time to a load forecasting model; and the load forecasting model determines the maximum load in the predetermined time period.

Abstract: A device for reactive power compensation in a high-voltage network contains a phase conductor. A high-voltage connection is provided for each phase of the high-voltage network. Each high-voltage connection is connected to a first high-voltage winding which surrounds a first core portion and to a second high-voltage winding which surrounds the second core portion. The core portions are part of a closed magnetic circuit. The low-voltage ends of each high-voltage winding can be connected to at least one saturation switching branch configured to saturate the core portions and has actuatable power semiconductor switches controlled by a control unit. To manufacture the device inexpensively, each saturation switching branch has a two-pole submodule having a bridge circuit and a DC voltage source so that, depending on the actuation of the power semiconductor switches, the DC voltage source can either be connected in series to the high-voltage winding or can be bridged.
