A non-liquid immersed transformer includes a magnetic core and a coil winding forming a plurality of winding turns around the magnetic core; a cooling system and a first conductive connector. The cooling system includes a cooling pipe for the flow of a cooling fluid, the cooling pipe extending along the coil winding and including a first point adjacent to a turn of the coil winding, and a second point adjacent to another turn of the coil winding. The conductive connector is arranged at one of the first and second points, to electrically connect an inner side of the cooling pipe with a turn of the coil winding.

Non-liquid immersed transformer

Dry-type transformers with insulating modules are disclosed. Example insulating modules include dielectric screens and supporting blocks. The supporting blocks support the dielectric screens over windings of the transformer. The dielectric screens have first substantially even portions configured to adapt in spaces defined by corresponding cylindrical barriers arranged between first and second windings of the transformers and second substantially even portions, transversal to the first portions and to the first windings of the transformers and extending outwards from the first portions and beyond the supporting blocks. The dielectric screens partly extend around a winding.

Insulating transformers

Non-liquid immersed transformers and methods of measuring aging degree of the transformers' insulation are disclosed. The transformers comprise a solid insulation inside the conductive coil and one or more floating electrodes in the solid insulation. At least a part of the conductive coil and the one or more floating electrodes may form one or more capacitive elements, respectively. An electrical parameter, e.g. complex permittivity, of the capacitive element is measured and the aging degree is calculated as a function of the electrical parameter measurement.

Insulation of non-liquid immersed transformers

A cooling arrangement for a dry-type transformer. The arrangement includes blowing equipment configured to blow a gas flow, and an opening positionable in a clamping structure of the transformer. The opening is configured to allow the gas flow to pass from the blowing equipment towards a winding of the transformer, so that the winding is properly cooled. The opening comprises an electric protecting means for dielectric protection of the clamping structure. A transformer including such cooling arrangement is also disclosed.

Cooling arrangement

A transformer may comprise a winding wrapped around a magnetic core, the winding having at least one winding portion extending between the magnetic core and the exterior of the winding in radial direction. The winding may comprise at least a first conductor and at least a second conductor, arranged radially adjacent to each other in each winding portion with the interposition of an insulating layer, wherein the first conductor is arranged radially inwardly with respect to the second conductor for part of each winding portion length, and radially outwardly with respect to the second conductor for another part of each winding portion length.
