The term "compact substation, some say box-type transformer, and some say box-type substation. In a strict sense, refers to box-type substation. It is a compact substation, the high-voltage power, transformer step-down, low-voltage distribution and other functions organically combined, installed in a moisture-proof, rust-proof, dust-proof, rat-proof, fireproof, anti-theft, heat insulation, fully enclosed, movable steel structure box.

First, Classification of Box type Substations

Box type substation according to the appearance and material can be divided into wood type box change, stone type box change, iron shell type box change. According to the structural form, it can be divided into combined substation (referred to as American box transformer) and preassembled substation (referred to as European box transformer). The American box is divided into two types according to the tank structure, the common box type and the divided box type, and the European box type uses the ring network type and the terminal type.
