  • Patent number: 9672969
    Abstract: A high voltage electromagnetic induction device including: a lead-through device-receiving structure having an opening for receiving a lead-through device, a lead-through device extending through the opening, wherein an internal portion is tapering in a direction along the central axis of the lead-through device away from the opening, and an electrical insulation barrier which is arranged in the lead-through device-receiving structure, arranged around and distanced from the internal portion, and which electrical insulation barrier is tapering in the direction, whereby a duct is formed between the internal surface of the electrical insulation barrier and the external surface of the internal portion of the lead-through device, wherein the electrical insulation barrier is tapering relative to the lead-through device such that the distance between the internal surface of the electrical insulation barrier and the external surface of the lead-through device increases in the direction.

  • Patent number: 9099238
    Abstract: An insulation system for a winding structure. The insulation system includes an innermost barrier pair arranged to cover a majority of the winding structure in the axial direction of the winding structure inside and outside the barrier structure relative the curvature of winding turns of windings of the winding structure, wherein at least one barrier of the innermost barrier pair defines a first flow path allowing flow of a dielectric fluid mainly in a first axial direction between the winding structure and the at least one barrier when the insulation system is in a assembled state; and a first outer barrier arranged radially inwards or radially outwards relative each barrier of the innermost barrier pair, wherein the first outer barrier defines a second flow path, parallel to the first flow path, allowing flow of a dielectric fluid mainly in a second axial direction opposite the first axial direction.

  • Patent number: 8890005
    Abstract: A high voltage arrangement for a high voltage power system has an insulating structure which reduces the creep path. The insulating structure is arranged around the second conductor and has a continuous extension in an axial direction from a first end thereof providing insulation of essentially the entire length of the second conductor to a second end around the bushing portion, which second end extends around the bushing portion at least to a point where an electric potential of an external surface of the bushing portion is at most equal to the average of the potential of the first conductor and the potential of the interfacing plane when the high voltage arrangement is in use.

  • Publication number: 20140327506
    Abstract: An oil transformer includes a transformer vessel, a transformer core mounted in the vessel, at least one upright hollow cylindrical transformer coil including at least one axial cooling channel arranged around a limb of the transformer core, and an oil chamber arranged at an axial front side of the transformer coil. At least one first opening leading from the inner chamber to the belonging front side of the transformer coil is provided, and at least one second opening is provided within the surrounding boundaries of the oil chamber. The oil chamber is an under-pressure chamber, wherein the at least one first opening is an inlet port and the at least one second opening is an outlet port.
