Transformer Connections for Three-Phase Circuits: T-connected transformers , Scott connection , Zigzag connection and Three-phase-to-six-phase connections.

T-CONNECTED TRANSFORMERS Another connection involving the use of two transformers to supply three-phase power is the T connection (Figure 14–21). In this connection, one transformer is generally referred to as the main transformer and the other is called the teaser transformer. The main transformer must contain a center or 50% tap for both the primary […]

Transformer Connections for Three-Phase Circuits: Three-phase transformers .

THREE-PHASE TRANSFORMERS Electrical energy may be transferred from one three-phase circuit to another three-phase circuit. A three-phase transformer is used to accomplish this transfer, resulting in a change in the voltage. The core structure of this transformer consists of three legs. For each phase, the low-voltage and high-voltage windings are wound on one of the […]

Transformer Connections for Three-Phase Circuits: Delta–wye connection, Wye-delta connections and Open-delta connection.

DELTA–WYE CONNECTION Delta–wye transformer connections may also be used for voltage transformation. The delta–wye connection is used both to step up and step down voltage. As shown in Figure 14–11, the primary windings are connected in delta and the secondary windings are connected in wye. Delta–Wye Transformer Bank The delta–wye transformer bank shown in Figure […]

Transformer Connections for Three-Phase Circuits: Feeding a dual load and The wye connection .

FEEDING A DUAL LOAD Some power companies use a delta–delta-connected transformer bank to feed two types of loads. These loads consist of a 240-V, three-phase industrial load and a 120/240-V, single-phase, three-wire lighting load. One single-phase transformer supplies the single-phase, three-wire lighting load. This transformer usually is larger than the other two transformers. The 120/240-V, […]
