    Abstract: A wind turbine is provided. The wind turbine comprises: a generator (162), one or more power converters (20) arranged between the generator and a point of connection to a main transformer (5), and one or more wind turbine electrical components (8, 9, 10). The main transformer (5) is configured to connect a busbar (60) to an auxiliary wind turbine transformer, wherein the busbar is configured to receive electrical power from an electrical grid with a main voltage. The wind turbine electrical components are configured to be connected to the auxiliary wind turbine transformer (6), wherein a selection of the wind turbine electrical components is further configured to be connected to the busbar through a service voltage transformer (7) when the main transformer (5) is disconnected from the busbar. Systems comprising such wind turbines are also provided. Methods for connecting a wind turbine main transformer to a grid are also provided.

    Abstract: A method for operating a multi-phase switched reluctance motor is a generator mode includes gating switches connected in series with selected ones of the phase windings of the motor into conduction to establish current flow in a selected one of the windings. The switches are thereafter disabled and current is forced to commutate into flyback diodes whereby the current is returned to an associated DC bus. The instant at which the conducting switches are gated out of conduction is selected or measured in angular displacement between an associated stator pole and a corresponding rotor pole by establishing a preselected magnitude of current such that when the current in the winding reaches that magnitude, the switches are disabled. The voltage at the DC bus is regulated during generator mode operation by adjusting the phase angle measured between a stator pole and a corresponding rotor pole at which the switches are gated into conduction. The voltage is alternatively regulated at the DC bus by adjusting the phase angle at which the switches are disabled if the generated current does not reach the preselected magnitude. Overcurrent protection is included to reduce the turn-on angle if the current in the DC bus exceeds another preselected magnitude.

    Abstract: A pulse duty control system comprises a pulse duty controlling element including a core made of an amorphous, magnetically soft material having a first and a second coil disposed thereon. A first set of pulses are applied to one end of the first coil while a second set of pulses, which are phase displaced by 180.degree. from the first set of pulses, are applied to one end of the second coil. The other end of the first coil is connected to an output terminal while the other end of the second coil is connected to a current controlling transistor, the base of which is connected to control circuit means. An output pulse, which is developed at the other end of the first coil, has a rising edge which lags behind the rising edge of a pulse of the first set of pulses by a time delay corresponding to the degree of conduction of the transistor which in turn depends on an output voltage from the control circuit means. The output pulse has a falling edge which is substantially synchronized with that of the pulse in the first set of pulses.
