Abstract
A high voltage offshore power plant power distribution assembly (100) comprising, at a subsea location, two end transformers (10a) and one or more intermediate transformers (10b), wherein the respective end transformers and intermediate transformers comprise a housing (11), a transformer core and winding assembly (13) comprising a plurality of sets of utility windings (15) and a set of collection windings (17), a plurality of utility terminals (19) connected to utility windings, wherein at least some of the utility terminals are connected to offshore power providers (1, 3). A collection line (28) connects to the set of collection windings (17). The respective end transformers and one or more intermediate transformers further comprise two collection terminals (29) and a collection line branching (27) located inside the housing (11). The collection line branching (27) connects the two collection terminals (29) to the collection line (28).
