An enhanced N.sub.2 regulation system is integrated with a H.sub.2 sensor together as a combined package. This system is designed to detect the generation of hydrogen within a transformer, directly within the nitrogen headspace of the transformer. The present invention also ensures a system's operation that maintains the set pressure range by either adding nitrogen or venting overpressure to the atmosphere as required. The final stage of the N.sub.2 regulator system is responsible for maintaining the gas-blanketed tank pressure within the range of 0.5 to 5.0 psi consistently.

A transformer cooling system is described. The transformer cooling system includes a dry transformer and a housing for the dry transformer. The dry transformer includes a core including a leg. Additionally, the dry transformer includes a winding body arranged around the leg. Further, a cooling channel extending in a direction of a longitudinal axis of the winding body is provided. Additionally, the transformer cooling system includes a heat exchanger adapted to dissipate heat from the housing. Further, the transformer cooling system includes a flow generating device arranged in the housing for providing a cooling flow in the cooling channel. The flow generating device is connected to the heat exchanger.

A shunt reactor includes a primary winding and a steel core. The steel core includes a bottom yoke, a top yoke, a first core limb, a second core limb, and a main limb. The first core limb, the second core limb and the main limb are arranged in parallel and in between the top yoke and the bottom yoke to form a support for a magnetic flux through the steel core. The primary winding is wound around the main limb. The shunt reactor further includes an auxiliary winding wound around the bottom yoke, top yoke, first core limb, or second core limb, and is configured to generate auxiliary power. The primary and the auxiliary windings are electrically insulated from the steel core and from each other. A cooling fan is configured to be driven by the auxiliary power generated by the auxiliary winding.
