A spacer tape is provided for spacing apart turns of a winding, which comprises a tape having an upper surface, a lower surface and a longitudinal axis, wherein the lower surface is adhesable and configured to be adhered to a conductor forming a turn of the winding, and spacers with an upper surface and a lower surface arranged on the tape, wherein the lower surface of the spacers is adhered to the upper surface of the tape, and wherein the upper surface of the spacers are adhesable and configured to be adhered to the conductor forming an adjacent turn of the winding.

Spacer tape, method for manufacturing a winding and winding

A transformer assembly for electric grids including: an electric transformer including a magnetic core, a first side including one or more first windings enchained with said magnetic core and adapted to be electrically connected to a first grid section and a second side including one or more second windings enchained with said magnetic core and adapted to be electrically connected to a second grid section; a tap changer operatively associated with said electric transformer to vary the number of turns enchained with said magnetic core for said first windings; a control unit to: acquire input data indicative of an electrical connectivity condition of said second grid section with said second windings; determine whether said transformer is in a load condition or in a no-load condition; and, in a no-load condition, command said tap changer to set a maximum available number of turns for said first windings.

Transformer assembly for electric grids and a related control method

A winding is provided, which comprises a form element having a longitudinal axis defining a longitudinal direction and a radial direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis. The form element comprises a core with a lateral surface, and adjustable elements arranged on the lateral surface of the core. The adjustable elements are elongated and extend along the longitudinal direction. A thickness of the adjustable elements in a radial direction is altered along the longitudinal direction. A conductor is wound around the form element along the longitudinal direction forming turns of the winding.
