The present disclosure provides an exemplary three-phase multi-tap balancing distribution transformer capable of operation with both balanced and unbalanced loads and that provides a wide range of incremental voltages to compensate for the varying voltage drops and imbalances as the attached conductor length increases and allows users the ability to incrementally and independently adjust the voltage specifically feeding a specific phase. Incremental adjustment is achieved via the transformer and without any fragile or other external devices or components between the power source and load-side equipment terminals. The transformer, through the use of at least one phase-specific tap-change switch is capable of directly controlling the secondary voltage of the applicable phase independently from the other phases and, thus, does not affect the voltage on the other phases.

A configurable inductor comprises a primary conductor loop uninterrupted by any switches. Inside the primary conductor are one or more secondary conductor loops, each with a switch that allows interrupting the secondary conductor loop. Multiple secondary conductor loops may be electrically coupled to form combined secondary conductor loops. The primary conductor loop may span multiple interconnect layers. A secondary conductor loop may span multiple interconnect layers, and the number of interconnect layers may be configurable by additional switches. There may also be one or more tertiary conductor loops partially outside the primary conductor loop. And there may be quaternary conductor loops on different interconnect layers than the primary conductor loop.
