  • Patent number: 11735356
    Abstract: A current converter with fluid or oil paper insulation for high voltage, with a head housing through which a primary conductor passes. A measurement device through which the primary conductor passes is arranged in the head housing. The primary conductor includes two different primary conductor types, more specifically an outer tube primary conductor as the first type and one or more inner conductor primary conductors as the second type. The outer tube primary conductor surrounds an interior that is designed to receive the inner conductor primary conductor, and the inner conductor primary conductors can be inserted into the interior. The outer tube primary conductor is used to transmit power and creates an encasement for the inner conductors. Only the outer tube primary conductor needs to be sealed with respect to the head housing. Inner conductors therefore can be easily inserted or re-moved subsequently, without the need for sealing measures.
