Abstract
An apparatus for reducing a magnetic unidirectional flux component in the core of a transformer, i.e., a three-phase transformer, includes a plurality of compensation windings that are magnetically coupled to the core of the transformer, wherein a controllable current source for feeding current into the compensation windings is arranged electrically in series with the compensation windings, specifically with the neutral point thereof, which is forming by the inputs of the compensation windings, and a neutral earthing transformer is electrically connected to the outputs of the compensation windings, where the current source electrically interconnects the neutral point of the compensation windings and the neutral point of the neutral earthing transformer.
