A hybrid transformer core assembly having a first leg having a first end and a second end, a second leg having a first end and a second end, and opposing first and second yokes coupling the first and second legs to the first and second yokes to create a closed core. The first leg and second legs are made of a plurality of packets of laminations having a high grain orientation, an d the first and second yokes are made of a plurality of packets of laminations having a lower grain orientation than the material of the first and second legs. Alternating laminations of the first and second legs are staggered to alternately extend beyond adjacent laminations of the respective leg at firs t and second ends thereof. a portion of the laminations of the first and secon d legs which extend beyond adjacent laminations of the first and second legs, respectively, overlaps portions of alternating laminations of the yokes and couples with notches of alternating laminations of the yokes. Additionally, a portion of the laminations of the first and second legs overlaps portions of alternating laminations of the yokes to similarly couples the legs with the yokes.
