communication power supply system
1. Brief introduction of communication power supply system
Communication power supply is an important part of the entire communication system. Just like the heart of the human body, the power supply quality and reliability of power supply equipment will directly affect the entire communication system and its quality.
Communication power equipment and facilities mainly include: AC mains lead-in lines, high and low voltage internal power supply and distribution equipment, diesel generator sets, rectifiers, battery packs, DC converters, UPS, and various AC and DC power distribution panels, etc., forming one Complete power supply system, reasonable control, distribution, and transmission to meet the requirements of communication equipment.
1.1 Composition and function of high and low voltage power distribution system
Generally, the input voltage of the communication enterprise substation is 10KV, so the high-voltage transmission electric energy needs to be reduced to 10KV from 35KV to 220KV to the telecommunications enterprise.
High and low voltage power distribution system equipment function: lead high voltage (10KV) into the high voltage incoming cabinet, metering cabinet, lightning protection cabinet, and outgoing cabinet to the high voltage side of the transformer.
The role of low-voltage power distribution equipment: the low-voltage side of the transformer enters the low-voltage incoming cabinet through the capacitor compensation cabinet and several outgoing cabinets, and the function is to concentrate and distribute electric energy.
Low-voltage (380/220) power distribution cabinet (panel)/low-voltage switch cabinet is a device that connects step-down transformers, low-voltage power supplies, and AC loads. It can complete the conversion between mains and backup power, load splitting, protection, measurement, alarms, etc. Function.
1.2 Mains classification
■The first type of mains power supply is the introduction of one power supply line from two stable and reliable independent power sources. The two circuits should not have power outages for maintenance at the same time, the average number of power outages per month should not be more than one, and the average time to failure per time should not be more than 0.5h. The two power supply lines should be equipped with automatic standby mains power input devices.
■Class II mains power supply lines allow planned maintenance and power outages. The average number of power outages per month should not be more than 3.5, and the average time to failure should not be more than 6h. The power supply shall meet the requirements of one of the following conditions:
a. A stable and reliable ring network is formed by two or more independent power supplies and one power supply line is introduced.

1.3 Classification of power supply systems
1.3.1 DC power supply system
The DC power supply system is a power supply system that provides DC (basic) power to the communication bureau (station). According to the latest "General Technical Requirements for Power Supply System of the Communications Bureau (Station)" promulgated by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology:
■-48V and ±24V are DC basic power supply.
■ Among them, -48V is the preferred basic power supply.
■±24V is the transitional power supply (phased out and no longer used in newly built systems). In practical applications, if ±24V or other DC voltage power supplies are necessary, the -48V basic power supply is generally converted into ±24V or other DC voltage power supplies by means of a DC-DC converter.
1.3.2 Centralized power supply system
The communication power system is composed of high and low voltage power distribution systems, transformers, low voltage power distribution, diesel generator sets, rectifiers, AC and DC power distribution panels, UPS power supplies, battery packs, converters, and communication equipment power distribution panels.
1.3.3 Distributed power supply system
1.3.4 Hybrid power supply system
1.4 Introduction to the functions of each part of the power supply system
■Substation: 10KV (6KV) is introduced from the city power to the high-voltage power distribution system cabinet (incoming, measuring, outgoing)-transformer (down to 380V) --- low-voltage power distribution cabinet (incoming, compensation, outgoing distribution).
■Oil generator set: As a backup power supply for the mains, it outputs 380V AC power to the low-voltage power distribution cabinet through a switch and the mains for switching.
■AC power distribution panel: distribute 380/220V AC power.
■Rectifier: rectify 380/220V alternating current and transform it into -48V direct current.
■DC power distribution panel: Distribute -48V DC power to the DC power distribution panel or DC power equipment of each communication equipment room.
■UPS power supply: Provide uninterrupted AC power. Output 220V/380V AC power supply.
■Battery: Provide AC and DC backup power supply, provide -48V power supply for rectifier; provide 380/220V power supply for UPS.
■DC converter: Convert -48V power supply into DC power supply of different voltage levels required by the equipment, such as: -12V, -24V, +60, -60V, 110V, etc.
2. DC Power Distribution System
2.1 Operation mode of DC power supply system
The operation mode of the DC power supply system of the exchange office adopts -48V full-float power supply mode. That is, when the mains power is normal, the AC mains is first rectified by the high-frequency switching power supply, and then floats the battery pack and supplies power to the communication equipment;
When the mains power (fault) is out of power and the generator set is not started to supply power, the battery pack is discharged to provide DC uninterrupted power supply to the communication equipment, and the allowable discharge time is generally 1 to 2 hours;
When the power supply of the generator set or the mains is restored, the DC power supply system is first charged with constant voltage and current limiting, and then switched to the floating charging mode for power supply.
The operating mode of the DC power supply system of mobile base stations (or optical cables, microwave relay stations) generally also adopts -48V full-floating power supply. That is, when the mains power is normal, the rectifier module on the combined switching power supply frame is floated in parallel with the battery and supplies power to the communication equipment;
When the mains (fault) is out of power and the mobile generator set is not powered, the battery pack is discharged in parallel to supply power to the communication equipment;
When the power supply of the generator set or the mains is restored, the DC power supply system is first charged with constant voltage and current limiting, and then switched to the floating charging mode for power supply.

DC-DC converter (DC-DC) is a DC conversion device that transforms basic DC power into other voltage types.
At present, the DC basic power supply voltage of communication equipment is specified as -48V. Since there are still -24V (communication equipment) and ±12V, ±5V (integrated circuit) operating power supplies in the communication system, it is necessary to pass the -48V basic power supply The DC-DC converter converts to a DC power supply of the corresponding voltage type for use by various devices.
