Abstract: A selector switch assembly for a load tap changer includes a bevel gear coupled with a motor drive shaft. A shaft assembly is coupled with the bevel gear and a switch is provided for each phase. Each switch includes a helical gear fixed to the shaft assembly, a Geneva pinion gear engaged with the helical gear, a first Geneva gear wheel mounted on a first shaft moved by a first follower of the pinion gear, a first contact arm associated with the first Geneva gear wheel to rotate therewith, a second Geneva gear wheel mounted on a second shaft and moved by a second follower of the pinion gear, and a second contact arm associated with the second Geneva gear wheel so as to rotate therewith. The contact arms include contacts that engage fixed contacts that define tap positions of the load tap changer.

Abstract: A cured filler-less epoxy compound formed as a rigid, three-dimensional, transparent structure, including a cylindrical sight bowl of a utility or industrial high voltage bushing. A process for making a three-dimensional (e.g., cylindrical), transparent structure with improved strength, including the steps of obtaining a cured filler-less epoxy compound and then pre-stressing the filler-less epoxy compound.
