Zurich, Switzerland, Aug.30, 2011 – ABB, the leading power and automation technology group will, build a new transmission and distribution substation in the state of Amazonas, in northwestern Brazil for the state-owned power utility company Eletrobras Amazonas Energia.

瑞士蘇黎世8月30日消息——領(lǐng)先的電力和自動化技術(shù)集團ABB將為巴西國有電力公司Eletrobras Amazonas Energia在西北部的亞馬孫州建造一個新的輸配變電站。

ABB will build the air-insulated switchgear (AIS) outdoor switchyard Mauá III in Manaus, the capital city of Brazil’s largest state. Key ABB products to be supplied include power transformers, high-voltage switchgear rated at 230 kV (kilovolt), 138 kV and 69 kV, circuit breakers, disconnecting switches, instrument transformers, surge arrestors, as well as medium-voltage equipment and auxiliary systems.ABB will also install a substation automation system compliant with the global IEC 61850 communications standard, and equipped with the latest protection and control products.

ABB將在巴西最大州的州府城市瑪納斯Mauá III項目的戶外開關(guān)柜建造空氣絕緣開關(guān)設(shè)備(AIS).ABB提供的關(guān)鍵產(chǎn)品包括變壓器、額定230千伏、138千伏以及69千伏的高壓開關(guān)、斷路器、隔離開關(guān)、互感器、避雷器，以及中壓設(shè)備及輔助系統(tǒng)。ABB還將安裝一個兼容全球IEC 61850通信標(biāo)準(zhǔn)的變電站自動化系統(tǒng)，并配備最新的保護和控制產(chǎn)品。

As part of the turnkey project, worth about $20 million, ABB is responsible for the design, engineering, supply, erection, commissioning and start-up of the substation, including civil works. The project is expected to be completed by 2012.

作為價值2千萬美元交鑰匙工程的一部分，ABB負(fù)責(zé)變電站以及土建工程的設(shè)計、工程、供應(yīng)、安裝、調(diào)試以及啟動。該項目預(yù)計在2012年完工。

“The substation will enhance the capacity and reliability of the grid and improve supply of electricity through the Manaus power system to industrial, commercial and residential consumers,” said Oleg Aleinikov, head of ABB's substations business, a part of the company’s Power Systems division.

ABB電力系統(tǒng)部變電站業(yè)務(wù)負(fù)責(zé)人Oleg Aleinikov表示：“該變電站將提高電網(wǎng)的電量以及可靠性，并通過瑪瑙斯的電力系統(tǒng)，為工業(yè)、商業(yè)以及住宅消費者改善電力供應(yīng)。”

Substations are key installations in the power grid that facilitate the efficient transmission and distribution of electricity. They include equipment that protects and controls the flow of electrical power. ABB is the world’s leading supplier of air- and gas-insulated substations covering a range of voltage levels up to 1,100 kV.

變電站是電網(wǎng)中的關(guān)鍵設(shè)施，促進電力的高效的傳輸和配送。變電站包括保護和控制電流的設(shè)備。ABB是世界領(lǐng)先的空氣和氣體絕緣變電站供應(yīng)商，電壓覆蓋等級高達(dá)1100千伏。

Eletrobras Amazonas Energia is part of the Eletrobras Group, Latin America’s biggest power utility company and the tenth largest in the world.
