Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a driving system for an on-load tap changer, comprising a vacuum interrupter driving mechanism configured to drive a vacuum interrupter of the on-load tap changer, an energy accumulation mechanism mechanically coupled with the vacuum interrupter driving mechanism, and a flywheel mechanism mechanically coupled with the vacuum interrupter driving mechanism. The flywheel mechanism comprises a flywheel. The energy accumulation mechanism is mechanically coupled with a primary driving unit and is configured to accumulate and release energy for combined motion of the vacuum interrupter driving mechanism and the flywheel mechanism. The vacuum interrupter driving mechanism and the flywheel mechanism are arranged along a main driving axis and the flywheel is concentrically arranged around the main driving axis.
