Due to a trend of reducing the noise of the transformer, which is indicated by customer requirements. Due to this, we are constantly forced to look for new solutions in the manufacture of transformers. Much of the noise of a transformer depends on the noise of the winding. The stability of the winding reduces the noise level. This is achieved by providing a sufficiently large compressive force of the winding. The existing method of fixing the winding is made with springs and is quite uncompetitive in terms of cost, safety and installation. We introduced a new way of fixing with wooden wedges. The new method has facilitated and shortened the assembly time of the windings. We had to take into account the fact that the heights of the windings can change during installation. Because of this, we had to determine the appropriate dimensions and shapes of the wedges. The height of the winding also changes due to the drying process, so we performed measurements before and after drying, and based on the results, we further adjusted the wedges.
