Product catalog summary
Introduction
The document discusses voltage management solutions provided by Wilson Power Solutions, focusing on the Wilson e2 and e2+ transformers. These solutions aim to optimize energy consumption and improve site resilience by managing supply voltage effectively.

Specifications
The Wilson e2 transformer is designed to provide a lower nominal voltage with an extended tapping range, allowing site voltage adjustments without additional equipment. The Wilson e2+ features a 17-position on-load tap changer for dynamic voltage regulation, suitable for sites with fluctuating supply voltage.

Procedures
To assess potential energy savings, it is necessary to monitor the incoming supply and analyze the load profile. The Wilson e2 transformer can reduce energy consumption by up to 12%, with typical savings between 3-8%.

Norms and Recommendations
Voltage management is recommended for sites with higher than optimal supply voltage to reduce energy losses. The Wilson e2+ transformer is ideal for applications requiring constant output voltage or increased site resilience.

Benefits
Using Wilson e2 and e2+ transformers can lead to significant energy savings, reduced electricity bills, and prolonged equipment life. The e2+ model offers dynamic stabilization, guaranteed output voltage, and integration with small-scale renewable energy sources.

Advantages of On-Load Tap Changer (OLTC)
OLTC technology provides a compact design, reduced plant footprint, and proven reliability over thyristor products. It ensures no excessive heat, less maintenance, and a regulated supply voltage.

Conclusion
Wilson Power Solutions offers cost-effective and space-saving alternatives to dedicated voltage management systems, enhancing energy efficiency and site resilience.

Wilson Voltage Management Overview-1

Voltage Management Many sites in the UK are supplied by a higher than optimal Voltage that is responsible for significant energy losses in voltage dependent equipment. Voltage Management is an energy saving technique that reduces these unnecessary losses by improving voltage to site. The Wilson e2 transformer comes with in-built voltage management capabilities that allow for easy adjustment to LV site voltage without the need of costly additional equipment. Depending on site supply voltage and your site’s load profile, managing voltage through a supply transformer can reduce energy consumption by up to 12% with customers typically achieving savings of 3-8%. REDUCE UNNECESSARY ENERGY WASTAGE Depending on your supply voltage and the voltage dependent loads at site you can achieve reductions of up to 12% in electricity consumption. In addition, equipment life can be prolonged as a result of improved operating conditions. In order to assess the savings potential of your site your incoming supply needs to be monitored and your load profile analysed. The Wilson e2 is designed to provide a lower nominal voltage and comes with an extended tapping range allowing you to adjust site voltage without the need for costly additional equipment. VOLTAGE MANAGEMENT THROUGH MV SUPPLY THE MOST COST EFFECTIVE AND LEAST INVASIVE SOLUTION DEDICATED VOLTAGE OPTIMISATION UNIT Most sites with MV supply are operating a distribution transformer that is designed to provide a nominal phase voltage of 240V. Where sites can benefit from reducing supply voltage, replacing existing transformers with a with a Wilson e2 /Wilson e2+ transformer is often the most cost effective solution. Why? Replacing the supply transformer does not require any additional equipment to be installed. This eliminates the risk of system disturbance, avoids additional transmission losses, minimises the total plant footprint and is virtually maintenance free (see diagrams opposite).
