Abstract

See full text

Different configurations of transient voltage quashing (TQ) transformers, harmonic current quashing (HQ) transformers, and transient voltage and harmonic current quashing (THQ) transformers include one or more of: a tertiary winding radially placed between the primary and secondary windings, with a surge suppressors coupled thereto, which quashes transient voltages in the transformer and any output device attached to output leads of the tertiary or secondary windings; and an arrangement of the secondary windings, separated by at least a second type intra-winding insulation, into one or a plurality of output winding groups, each used to provide power to N serially-connected output devices that exhibit known/expected output voltage characteristics. The second type intra-winding insulation has a dielectric strength to withstand the sum of the voltage output of the device being powered by the output winding and the adjacent serially-connected device, such that the output device experiences minimal harmonic currents.
