A diverter switch is for an on-load tap-changer. The diverter switch includes: at least one vacuum interrupter; an actuating element, which is mechanically connected at a first end of the vacuum interrupter and has a roller at a second end; and an actuating body having a base body and having at least one cam. The vacuum interrupter is configured to be actuated via the actuating element as a result of the roller moving over the actuating body. At least one part of the cam has a higher strength than the base body.

A method carries out a switchover of a first switch or at least one second switch for equipment. The method includes receiving, by a controller, a switching signal; selecting, by the controller, the first switch or at least the second switch for switchover on the basis of the switching signal; querying, by the controller, at least one parameter of the first switch or the at least second switch; checking a locking condition on the basis of the at least one queried parameter for the first switch or a locking condition for the at least second switch; and carrying out the switchover by the selected first switch or the at least second switch based upon the corresponding locking condition being met.

The invention relates to a method for controlling a wind turbine which comprises a transformer has a variable turns ratio such as an on load tap changer transformer. The adjustment of the turns ratio is possible when a primary side current or a secondary side current of the transformer is less than a switching current threshold. The method comprises operating the wind turbine so that the primary or secondary side current is above the switching current threshold. In response to obtaining a condition for changing the turns ratio of the transformer, the wind turbine is operated so that the primary or secondary side current is reduced below the switching current threshold so that the turns ratio can be changed during the temporary current reduction.

Provided is a three-phase dry-type transformer. The three-phase dry-type transformer comprises three single-phase dry-type transformers connected to each other. Each single-phase transformer comprises an incoming line side high-voltage coil and an outgoing line side high-voltage coil, wherein the incoming line side high-voltage coil is provided with an incoming line end and an outgoing line end, and the outgoing line side high-voltage coil is provided with an incoming line end and an outgoing line end. The outgoing line end of the incoming line side high-voltage coil is connected to the incoming line end of the outgoing line side high-voltage coil, such that the incoming line side high-voltage coil and the outgoing line side high-voltage coil are connected in series. Further provided is an assembly method.

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.
