An induction device for association with high voltage electric transmission systems having at least one core frame and at least one winding arranged around said core frame. The induction device has at least one magnetic core leg arranged in said core frame. The core frame includes a stack of core segments of a magnetic material being cooled by cooling medium, arranged in compression in the core frame, core gaps being arranged to separate the core segments, and a plurality of spacers, arranged in the core gaps between the core segments, with a cross section of hexagonal shape, having an upper and a lower end-face being in contact with the core segments. The spacers in at least one of the core gaps are arranged densely packed so as to form a compact filling in the core gap.
