Abstract
The present disclosure relates to systems and configurations for phase-shift autotransformers and multi-pulse rectifiers. A phase-shift autotransformer includes a wiring configuration for first, second and third magnetic cores, the wiring configuration including primary input and phase-shift windings. The primary input windings are configured to provide a first and second primary input inductances, and phase-shift windings of the wiring configuration are configured to provide multiple inductances for each phase-shift winding. A multi-pulse rectifier is provided including a phase-shifting autotransformer, a diode bridge rectifier configuration coupled to output of the autotransformer and a filtering capacitor coupled to the diode bridge rectifier. Other embodiments are directed to use of the multi-use rectifier system with vehicle charging station, such as an Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (EVSE).
