Abstract: An AC-AC converter system includes transformer arrangements and HVDC converter units on primary and secondary sides of the system, respectively. The system exhibits first and second three-phase AC networks, and the converter units are interconnected via a DC connection. By integrating at least part of two transformer arrangements in one transformer unit, a cost efficient transformer configuration can be achieved.

Abstract: A high voltage insulation system for high-voltage direct current including a bushing, a conductor, a transformer conductor, and a connection between the conductor and the transformer conductor. A conductive shielding electrode shields the connection between the bushing and transformer. A surrounding insulation system is immersed in transformer oil.
