Nuclear
Background and Challenges
Nuclear power plants impose extremely stringent requirements on the reliability, safety, and environmental adaptability of power systems, mainly reflected in the following aspects:
  • Power Supply Continuity
    Critical loads such as main coolant pumps and emergency core cooling systems require uninterrupted power supply. Any power interruption may lead to severe consequences.
  • Environmental Adaptability
    Equipment must operate long-term in environments characterized by high temperature, high humidity, and radiation exposure, requiring excellent environmental tolerance and aging resistance.
  • System Redundancy
    To comply with nuclear safety regulations, power systems must adopt multi-level redundancy designs, ensuring normal operation even in the event of partial system failures.
Overview

Leveraging over 98% market share of synchronization products in the nuclear power sector and industry-leading fast transfer technologies, GoLead Intelligent delivers an integrated solution featuring "high-precision synchronization + seamless fast transfer + smart inrush current suppression."

The solution covers key scenarios including nuclear island main pump power supply, conventional island generator synchronization, and emergency power source transfer, ensuring zero power interruption, low electrical impact, and stable operation throughout the entire lifecycle, fully meeting the stringent requirements of nuclear safety regulations.

Key Technologies
  • High-Precision Automatic Synchronization Control
    The system adopts a dual-redundant control architecture with two fully independent control units, ensuring continuous and reliable operation even in the event of a single-point failure. It delivers high-precision synchronization performance with frequency accuracy of ±0.01 Hz, phase angle accuracy of ±0.5°, and voltage deviation within ±1%, fully meeting the stringent grid-connection requirements of nuclear power plants. Supporting rapid synchronization of multiple generator units, the solution achieves a first closing success rate exceeding 99.9%, effectively reducing grid-connection impact and extending equipment service life.
  • Millisecond-Level Seamless Power Transfer

    Upon detection of a main power supply failure, the system initiates transfer logic within 5 ms and cooperates with high-speed vacuum circuit breakers to complete the entire switching process within 20 ms. This millisecond-level seamless transfer capability ensures uninterrupted power supply to critical loads. The solution is specifically designed to protect essential nuclear safety systems—such as reactor cooling systems and emergency boron injection pumps—preventing power interruptions that could lead to core damage or radioactive leakage risks.

  • Smart Inrush Current and Overvoltage Suppression

    By applying the proprietary residual-flux and bias-flux cancellation technology, the system effectively suppresses magnetizing inrush current and operational overvoltage during the switching of transformers and capacitor banks, preventing protection malfunctions. In addition, phase-selection control optimizes circuit breaker closing instants, significantly reducing the risk of arc re-ignition and safeguarding sensitive nuclear island equipment, thereby extending overall equipment lifespan.

  • Environmental Adaptability and Smart Operation

    Designed to withstand high-temperature, high-humidity, and high-radiation operating conditions, the solution ensures long-term stable performance in the demanding environments of nuclear power plants. Integrated smart monitoring and diagnostic functions enable real-time condition awareness and remote operation support, improving maintenance efficiency while reducing manual intervention and operational risk.

Application Results and Cases

In a large-scale nuclear power plant application, GoLead Intelligent’s solution significantly enhanced overall system performance by achieving 100% power supply continuity for critical loads, completely eliminating equipment outages caused by power transfer operations.

Through effective inrush current suppression and overvoltage protection, the equipment failure rate was reduced by 30%, extending service life. Meanwhile, smart monitoring and diagnostic functions minimized manual inspection requirements, substantially improving operation and maintenance efficiency.
