Patent ID: 11277075

Abstract:
An electric power system is provided that includes a three-phase to ten-phase step-up transformer. The transformer includes primary winding groupings, secondary windings, and third windings. The primary winding groupings include sub windings. Primary winding groupings are coupled to form a delta configuration and coupled to secondary windings and third windings, which may also be coupled to each other. The outputs at second ends of secondary windings and third windings are greater than the outputs at the second ends of primary windings. Diode pairs are connected to each other, each diode pair having an inner connection connected to one of the outputs of the transformer and first and second ends respectively connected to a positive dc bus and a negative dc bus. An inverter is connected to the d busses. The diode pairs operatively rectify the transformer output voltage to form a DC voltage with a reduced common mode voltage.
