The invention comprises an inductor configured for filtering medium and/or high voltage power. The inductor includes an inductor core formed of a plurality of coated magnetic particles, each of a majority of the coated magnetic particles including: a magnetic particle core and a non-magnetic coating about a corresponding magnetic particle core. The inductor optionally includes: (1) a main inductor spacer separating a first turn of a winding from a terminal turn of the winding and (2) a segmenting spacer separating two consecutive turns of the winding about said core. The inductor is configured to convert power into an output current, such as power of at least one thousand five hundred volts with an input current of at least fifty amperes.
