Active paer
Explanation:
It seems the obvious translation can be used. This is from a list of components, from a firm producing small transformers:

96. Transformer cover
97. Transformer tank
98. Transformer active part
99. Transformer oil

A table in the second reference lists the weights of "Active part", "oil" and "total".

Yes, Dr. Krasontovitch is right. Meant to type \"Part\", not \"paer\".
