A wound transformer core (10) is disclosed for reducing core loss and improving core efficiency. The core (10) includes a plurality of magnetic steel strip laminations (5) nested together to form a series of concentric layers which together define: a first core leg (12) for receiving a conductive coif and having a first leg thickness, a second core kg (14) opposed to the first core leg (12) and having a second leg thickness, a first core end (16) extending perpendicularly between the first and second core legs (12,14) and having a first end thickness and a second core end 18 extending perpendicularly between the first and second core legs (12,14), the second core end (18) opposed to the first core end (16) and having a second end thickness. At least one of the second leg thickness, first end thickness and second end thickness is greater than the first leg thickness. |
