In power distribution systems, three-phase transformer configuration directly impacts system reliability and load management.

Many older industrial facilities use single-phase, oil-filled transformers made for pole-mounting but installed at ground level to create 3-phase power distribution systems. Usually, primary and ...

Bridgeport Magnetics Group Inc. introduces a new line of dry-type single-phase and three-phase low voltage ( Bridgeport Magnetics Group Inc. introduces a new line of dry-type single-phase and ...

This whitepaper compares single phase and three phase circuits from the component count, stress level and complexity standpoints. The document shows that on most cases, single phase circuits are the ...

In the original version of this article, the second figure contained an error. The image has been updated. It’s important for engineers to have a good, working ...

Last month's Code Calculations article covered transformer calculation definitions and some specifics of delta transformer calculations. This month we turn our attention to the differences between ...

An internal fault can be violent enough to blow the lid off a transformer. Catastrophic failure of an overhead transformer is a rare occurrence, but it does happen. Electrical systems are designed so ...
