A dry-type transformer, comprises a magnetic core, at least one high voltage (HV) winding, and at least one low voltage (LV) winding inductively coupled to the magnetic core. The transformer is made by determining a shape of an electric field that is generated, 3D printing a dielectric structure shaped to conform to the determined shape of the electric field, and mounting the dielectric structure between the HV and LV windings. A dielectric barrier arrangement for electrically isolating a coil of a transformer assembly from a further coil of the transformer assembly or from a core of the transformer assembly comprises a first dielectric structure having a first cylindrical dielectric structure extending along a longitudinal axis (L).

A tank assembly has heat-generating equipment contained therein. The tank assembly includes a tank having an opening, and a thermal siphon fixed to the tank and sealing the opening of the tank. The thermal siphon has a main body portion and a loop portion. The thermal siphon contains a liquid and a gas. A center of the loop portion is exposed to the environment.

A reactor includes a plurality of windings, a coupling core, and an inductor core. A coupling core configured to form a coupling closed magnetic circuit that magnetically couples the plurality of windings, the plurality of windings being wound around the coupling core; and. An inductor core, which includes a main part, a first projection part projecting from one end of the main part, and a second projection part projecting from another end of the main part, and each of the first projection part and the second projection part is magnetically connected to the coupling core. The inductor core forms an inductor closed magnetic circuit together with a part of the coupling core around which one winding of the plurality of windings is wound.

A magnetic part including: a coil that generates a magnetic flux when a current flows through the coil; a core that is formed of a magnetic substance that forms a magnetic path of the magnetic flux; a support member that supports the core; and a fixing member that fixes the core to the support member. The core includes a column portion that is vertically provided with respect to a surface where the core is in contact with the support member. The fixing member presses the column portion of the core against the support member. The support member has a recess in a portion of a facing surface that faces the core, where the portion of a facing surface does not face the column portion.

A monitoring system includes an array of optical sensors disposed within a transformer tank. Each optical sensor is configured to have an optical output that changes in response to a temperature within the transformer tank. An analyzer is coupled to the array of optical sensors. The analyzer is configured to determine a sensed temperature distribution based on the sensed temperature. The sensed temperature distribution is compared to an expected distribution. Exterior contamination of the transformer tank is detected based on the comparison.
