Abstract
A method carries out a switchover of an on-load tap-changer using a drive system. The drive system includes at least one motor which acts on a drive shaft, a control device and an encoder system which is directly or indirectly coupled to the drive shaft. The method includes receiving a signal for switching the on-load tap-changer from the control device; determining by the control device whether switching to a current tap was performed from an upward or downward direction, and whether switching will be performed to a next tap in the upward or downward direction; selecting, on the basis of the determination, one of a plurality of travel profiles for the drive system of the on-load tap-changer, on the basis of which the switchover is carried out; and carrying out and monitoring the switchover by the drive system according to the selected travel profile.
