- Critical Notes for Engineering Integration
- Distinguish DWK3-110CD and DWK3-110A8: Series A VQC includes main transformer tap control with extra registers for tap reading/writing; CD has no main transformer related registers, do not mix protocols.
- Two register address pitfalls: In Modbus Poll use offset (0-始める); many SCADA/HMI software directly uses logical address (30001), avoid ±1 offset error.
- Write permission for settings: Some firmware versions require panel unlock before parameter writing; otherwise write command returns exception code 02.
- Telesignalling recommendation: read coils instead of only status word: Status word has refresh latency; capacitor position telesignalling should read coils directly.
- Exception Codes: 01 Illegal Function Code; 02 Illegal Address; 03 Illegal Data; 04 Device Fault (ブロックされました / mode prohibits remote control).

Working Principle of Zhongguan Electric Control DWK3‑110 (Series A VQC and Series C CD; Series A full voltage & reactive integrated control, CD capacitor switching only)
DWK3‑110 is essentially a microprocessor-based voltage and reactive power integrated controller (VQC). Core workflow: Sample busbar PT & CT signals → Calculate U/I/P/Q/cosφ → Compare with setpoints → Output relay contacts to control capacitors / main transformer tap, with blocking protection.
- Hardware Sampling Stage
- アナログ入力: Connect busbar PT secondary voltage (0~100V), CT secondary current (0~5A). Sampling chip continuously samples three-phase voltage and current.
- CPU Calculation: Microcontroller computes active P, reactive Q, power factor cosφ, 頻度; meanwhile reads digital telesignals: capacitor switch position, bus coupler status, main transformer tap position (Series A), fault blocking signals.
- HMI & コミュニケーション: LCD panel real-time display; RS485 Modbus-RTU uploads telemetry & telesignalling to substation backstage and receives remote control commands.
- Core Control Logic (Two Major Versions)
✅ Series A (DWK3‑110Axx, Full VQC, U-Q 9-zone diagram strategy)
Series A controls both main transformer on-load tap-changer and capacitor switching, adopting industry standard U-Q nine-zone diagram algorithm: vertical axis = busbar voltage U, horizontal axis = reactive power Q. The plane is divided into nine zones by voltage upper/lower limits and reactive switching thresholds.
ゾーン 9: Voltage and reactive power within acceptable range → No action
For the other 8 zones, regulation follows priority:
- Adjust reactive power first by capacitor switching (switching capacitor supplies inductive reactive power and lifts voltage; switching off capacitor reduces capacitive reactive power and lowers voltage)
- When reactive power reaches regulation limit, operate main transformer on-load tap-changer to adjust voltage
Anti-tap hunting logic: Limit continuous tap operation count and delay to prevent repeated tap change from minor voltage fluctuations. Inverse voltage regulation optional, automatically adjust target voltage band according to load and reduce operation times.
✅ Series C (DWK3‑110CD/C4D, CD as above, no main transformer tap control)
CD only performs high-voltage capacitor switching, controls capacitor banks only without main transformer tap regulation, adopting dual criteria of voltage + 無効電力:
- Continuously monitor busbar voltage and reactive power
- Capacitor switching-in allowed only when both conditions are satisfied: Busbar voltage within permitted range + system inductive reactive power exceeds switch-in threshold → relay contact closes to drive vacuum contactor to switch capacitor in.
- When busbar voltage is too high or system becomes capacitive (reverse reactive power flow) exceeding switch-out threshold → relay contact opens to switch capacitor off.
Switching algorithms:
Equal-capacity banks: Balanced cyclic switching, equalize operation count of each bank to extend service life
Unequal-capacity banks: Adaptive combined switching, select optimal capacity combination according to reactive magnitude for higher compensation precision and avoid oscillation
Any faulty/maintenance capacitor bank is automatically masked; remaining banks keep automatic operation.
Ⅲ. Blocking Protection Principle (Safety Core)
All models have multi-layer blocking. Once blocking condition triggers, capacitor switching-in is prohibited immediately; already-connected capacitors will be tripped if needed:
- Overvoltage Blocking: Busbar voltage>upper limit → block switching-in and trip capacitors to avoid capacitor overvoltage damage.
- Undervoltage Blocking: Busbar voltage<lower limit → prohibit capacitor switching-in; switching capacitors under low voltage may amplify resonance risk.
- Switch Position Blocking: When incoming/bus coupler switch opens, trip capacitors on this section and suspend automatic control.
- Hardware Watchdog & Self-diagnosis: On CPU crash, hardware circuit blocks all relay outputs directly to prevent false trip/close. Detect capacitor fail-to-open / fail-to-close, trigger alarm and isolate that bank.
- Switching Delay: Fixed waiting time after each action (10~30代), prevent cyclic switching oscillation caused by short-term grid fluctuations.
- Three Operation Modes
- Auto Mode: Controller samples, judges and executes automatic switching / tap regulation independently (normal running mode).
- Local Manual: Manual capacitor switching / tap raise-lower via panel keys, auto logic suspended, for commissioning and maintenance.
- リモコン: Backstage sends remote switch commands via Modbus; local auto logic exits under remote mode, protection blocking remains active.
- Series T (DWK3‑110TC Tap-regulated compensation, different principle)
Series T is not conventional stepwise capacitor switching. It adjusts taps of on-load autotransformer connected in series before capacitors, changing voltage across capacitors to continuously and smoothly vary reactive output. Capacitors do not need frequent switching, resulting in lower impact and longer service life.
