Phase-Shifting Zigzag Transformer

Description

In the phase-shifting transformer, the primary and tertiary windings are connected to form a zigzag. The phase shift is specified with respect to the reference winding.

Additional Information 


The secondary winding corresponds to the winding that does not have the zigzag connection. The zigzag winding is split in two parts: Z (primary) and Y (tertiary) according the following equations:[1]



The following example shows the use of the equations as well as the connection diagram of the transformer Zy with phase angle -7.5 degrees (see previous ZigZag parameters image where the transformer data is shown)


Base primary winding Voltage = 10.735 kV (rms LL), Base secondary winding Voltage = 693 V (rms LL), Base Tertiary winding Voltage = 639 V (rms LL):



The vector diagram of this transformer (referred to the ZigZag side) is shown in the following figure
