Abstract
An electrical transformer includes a housing, a transformer core and winding subassembly located within the housing, and an active mount subassembly having an active mount and a controller. The active mount has a first end attached to the housing and a second end attached to the transformer core and winding subassembly. The controller has an output port connected to the active mount. The active mount cancels out (or reduces) noise-causing vibrations which come from the transformer core and winding subassembly during transformer operation.
