The Transformer for one of the longest and most powerful ultra-high-voltage direct current transmission links (HVDC) in the world has passed its acid test. It is the world's first transformer that can produce a DC voltage of 800 kilovolts - existing HVDC voltages were only up to 500 kV. The new HVDC systems demand due to the higher peak voltage by 60 percent completely new technical solutions. The
