Single piece electric assembly for connecting an off-shore wind turbine with an electric subsea cable, wind turbine, wind turbine cluster and method for mounting such an electric assembly to a wind turbine tower

摘要

An electric assembly for electrically connecting at least one wind turbine being located off-shore with an electric subsea cable being connected to an on-shore power grid is provided. The electric assembly has (a) a transformer for transforming a first voltage level being provided by the at least one wind turbine to a second voltage level of the subsea cable, and (b) an external equipment being electrically and mechanically connected to the transformer for controlling an operation of at least the transformer. The transformer and the electric equipment are formed by a preinstalled package, which can be mechanically handled as a single piece. Further, a wind turbine having such an electric assembly, a wind turbine cluster having such a wind turbine, and a method for mounting such an electric assembly to a tower of a wind turbine are provided.
