Experiment No.: 10
Name of Experiment: Threes-Phase Transformer Using Two Single-Phase Transformer
(Open-∆ Connection)

Objective:
• The experiment demonstrates how two single-phase transformers can create a three-phase
supply at reduced capacity, approximately 57.7% of a full three-phase bank.
• It investigates voltage ratios, phase relationships, and efficiency under different load
conditions.
• Practical applications and limitations of the open-delta connection in electrical power
systems are also explored.

Theory: The open-delta (or V-V) connection of three-phase transformers is a configuration in


which two single-phase transformers are used to provide a three-phase power output, leaving one
transformer out of the standard delta connection. This arrangement is typically used when the
full three-phase transformer system is not available, or when cost savings or reduced capacity is
sufficient for the load Full Delta (Δ-Δ) Connection.

In a full delta system, the power capacity is given by:

PFull delta = 3 VLIL

where Vs is the line voltage and IL is the line current.

In the open-delta configuration, only two transformers are present, each contributing to the total
power.

Total apparent power in the open-delta system:


2
Sopen delta = VLIL
√3

To find the fraction of power delivered by the open-delta system compared to the full-delta
system:
2
S VLIL
Fraction of power = open delta = √3 = 0.577
PFull delta 3 VLIL

The open-delta (V-V) connection delivers approximately 57.7% of the power of a full delta (Δ-Δ)
configuration.
Required Apparatus:
a) Three Phase AC Meter: Ammeter (Rating: Current: 5A max), Voltmeter (Rating:
Voltage: 500V AC rms max)

b) Variable Resistor (Ratings: Resistance: 3×50Ω, Current: 3×3.16A)

c) Variable Three Phase AC Line (Rating: Voltage: 430V, Current: 3A)

d) Single-Phase Transformer (Ratings: Power: 760VA, U1: 230V, U2: 400V-230V,


Frequency: 50Hz, I1: 3.7A, I2: 1A-1.7A)

Conclusion:
An open-delta connection with two single-phase transformers can efficiently deliver three-phase power,
particularly when losses are minimized, and load conditions are optimized. This setup offers around 57.7%
of the capacity of a full three-phase transformer, making it ideal for moderate loads. It is cost-effective
and space-efficient but less suitable for high-power applications due to lower efficiency. Proper
transformer selection and careful operation are critical for achieving stable performance and improved
efficiency.
