The Brentford voltage regulating transformer (VRT) is an autotransformer having a single layer coil on which carbon rollers make electrical contact with each successive turn of the winding. It can be designed for single- or three-phase operation and for either oil-immersed or dry-type construction. The winding is of the helical type which allows three-phase units to be built with a three-limb core as for a conventional transformer.
