In W7-AS the H-mode has been observed for the first time in a currentless stellarator plasma. H-modes are achieved with 0.4 MW Electron Cyclotron Resonance Heating with 140 GHz at 2.5 T and high density, with 70 GHz at 1.25 T and lower density and with neutral beam injection. The H-phases display all characteristics known from tokamak H-modes including the development of an edge transport barrier, an increase of the poloidal impurity flow velocity at the edge, the reduction of edge turbulence and ELMs. The power threshold for the H-mode seems to be lower than that in tokamaks and is in agreement with an neBT scaling. Major differences to the divertor H-mode is the small increase in energy content of maximally 30%, the lack of a strong isotope effect both in threshold and in H-mode characteristics and a peculiarly narrow operational range in iota.
