Transformer Vector Group and Auto-Transformer

The document describes two experiments using a three-phase transformer. The first determines the vector group by measuring voltages and comparing them. The second demonstrates using a three-phase transformer in an economy connection as an autotransformer by measuring secondary voltages at different taps and calculating transformation ratios.

CIRCUIT DIAGRAM:

PROCEDURE:

Initially assemble the circuit according with the foregoing topographic diagram. Connect terminal 1U2
(capital A) with terminal 2U6 (lower case letter a).Match terminal 1V2 with capital B and 1W2 with
capital C; terminal 2V6 with lower case letter b and 2W6 with lower case letter A. adjust the supply
voltage in order to obtain a phase-to-neutral primary voltage of about 100 V.

In sequence measure the following voltages:

UCc=.................... (V)

UCb=.................... (V)

UBc=.................... (V)

UBb=.................... (V)

And compare the measured values in the following order:

UCc ……… UCb

UCc ……… UBc

UBb ……… UCb

UBb ……… UBc

UCb ……… UBc

Using the groups table determine the vector group of this connection: Dy ………

Shut-off the supply voltage and assemble a new connection according with the foregoing topographic
diagram 1.2 (Dy5 type) modifying only the secondary connection. Connect terminal 1U2 (capital A) with
terminal 2U1 (lower a). Now match terminal 2V1 with lower case letter b and 2W1 with lower case letter
c.

Repeat the above measurements:

UCc=……………….. (V)

UCb=……………….. (V)

UBc=……………….. (V)

UBb=……………….. (V)

And compare the measured values in the following order:

UCc .........UCb

UCc .........UBc

UBb .........UCb

UBb .........UBc

UCb .........UBc

Using the groups table determine the vector group of this connection: Dy……

EXPERIMENT NO 3(B)

AUTOTRANSFORMER
OBJECTIVE:

 Demonstrating the Possibility of Utilizing a Three-Phase Transformer in Economy


Connection.

EQUIPMENT:

 1IT 6000 Three-Phase Power Supply.


 1IT 6003 Three-Phase Transformer.
 2IT 6038 Moving Iron Voltmeter (125-250-500V)

EXPERIMENT PROCEDURE:

Assemble the circuit in accordance with the foregoing topographic diagram. The secondary winding is
star connected and fed at UN = 220 V Tap.

Adjust the supply voltage in order to obtain the nominal voltage U N = 380 V (phase to neutral voltage
220V) on the primary-side of the autotransformer and measure all the possible secondary voltages when
the voltmeter is connected between the various taps and neutral.

Enter the measured values in the Following Table and calculate the transformation ratio

n = U1 /U2.

U1 (V) 220 220 220 220 220


Prise UN - 15% UN - 10% UN - 5% UN UN + 5%
U2 (V)n

Due to inductive coupling of the windings, in contrast to a resistive voltage divider, it is possible to gain
higher voltages on the secondary side than on the primary side.
