Abstract
The main objective of this lab experiment is to understand and observe the criterion for transformer polarity
and paralleling of single-phase transformer. An understanding of polarity is essential to correctly construct
three-phase transformer banks and to properly parallel single or three-phase transformers with existing
electrical systems. Transformer Polarity refers to the relative direction of the induced voltages between the
high voltage terminals and the low voltage terminals. During the AC half-cycle when the applied voltage
(or current in the case of a current transformer) is from H1 to H2 the secondary induced voltage direction
will be from X1 to X2. In practice, Polarity refers to the way the leads are brought out of the transformer.
Parallel operation of two or more Transformers means that all the Transformers Primary is connected with
the common supply and their Secondary are feeding to a common bus through which load is connected.
Parallel operation of transformers requires that their primary as well as secondary are connected in parallel.

I. INTRODUCTION
We are required to learn and observe the polarity In task 2, the paralleling of single phase transformer
characteristics of transformers as per given in Lab was performed on the MATLAB software. The
manual. We performed calculations for different transformers were connected as per instructions given
tasks. Any method can be used to obtain results. lab manual. The circuit shown in figure 05 was made
Later these results are verified using MATLAB as and result in the form of graph were obtained and
given in Lab manual. observed. Figure 06 shows the output result of the
circuit obtained.
