(Refer to the 60-070-VIP manual for details on the equipment interconnection and software operation.) 12.1.3 Practicals Delta Supply Star Load Star Supply Star Load Star Supply Delta Load eepe Delta Supply Delta Load NOTE: Practicals cover both 230 V and 120 V versions of the trainer. Where parameters specific to an appropriate trainer versions are given within a practical, they appear in a table adjacent to the associated step of the practical procedure. Results tables are given at the end of the assignment for both versions (230 V and 120 V) of the trainer. 60-070-TFM-S 4424Powerframes Assignment 12 TRANSFORMERS Three Phase Transformers STUDENT’S MANUAL Star and Delta Loads 12.2 Theory 12.2.1 Transformer Connections Assignment 11 introduced three phase star and delta connections. Figure 4-12-1 demonstrates the current flow in the windings for both connections. or @ Figure 412-1 The term Ting refers to the line current, that is the current through each connection line to the three phase system. The term Ijnase fefers to the phase current, that is the current through each individual phase winding. Consider the currents in the two types of connection. 12.2.1.1 Star Connected Windings it can be clearly seen from Figure 4-12-1(b) that for the star connected system the phase current is the same as the line current. Hence: Vysace = Hise 12.2.1.2 Della Connected Windinas Figure 4-12-2 shows the phasor diagram for the currents in the delta connected system o © Figure 412-2 From this, the relationship between phase and line currents can be calculated.
