The magnetic circuit of a generator in a wind power plant is arranged to directly supply a high supply voltage of 2-50 kV, preferably higher than 10 kV. The generator is provided with solid insulation and its winding includes a cable () comprising one or more current-carrying conductors () with a number of strands () surrounded by at least one outer and one inner semiconducting layer () and intermediate insulating layers (). The outer semiconducting layer () is at earth potential. The stator winding may be produced with full or fractional slot winding, the phases of the winding being Y-connected. The Y-point may be insulated and protected from over-voltage by means of surge arrestors, or else the Y-point may be earthed via a suppression filter. The invention also relates to a wind power plant, a generator included in the plant and a variable speed system for such a plant.

Wind power plant

A power transformer/inductor includes at least one winding. The winding is made of a high voltage cable that includes an electric conductor, and around the electric conductor is arranged a first semiconducting layer, around the first semiconducting layer is an insulating layer, and around the insulating layer is a second semiconducting layer. The second semiconducting layer is directly earthed at both ends of the winding and furthermore at least at two points per turn of every winding such that one or more points are indirectly earthed.

Power transformer/inductor

The present invention relates to a power transformer/inductor comprising at least one winding. The windings are designed by means of a high-voltage cable, comprising an electric conductor, and around the conductor there is arranged a first semiconducting layer, around the first semiconducting layer there is arranged an insulating layer and around the insulating layer there is arranged a second semiconducting layer. The second semiconducting layer is earthed at or in the vicinity of both ends () of each winding and furthermore one point between both ends () is directly earthed.

In a plant containing a turbo-generator the magnetic circuit of the turbo-generator is included in an electric generator which directly supplies a high supply voltage of 20-800 kV, preferably higher than 36 kV. The insulation of the generator is built up of a cable () comprising one or more current-carrying conductors () with a number of strands () surrounded by outer and inner semiconducting layers () and intermediate insulating layers (). The outer semiconducting layer () is at earth potential. The phases of the winding are Y-connected. The Y-point may be insulated and protected from over-voltage by means of surge arresters, or else the Y-point may be earthed via a suppression filter.
