How the voltage is induced in a single phase transformer?
The changing magnetic flux in the iron core of the transformer induces a voltage in the windings.
How many windings does a single-phase transformer have?
Generally a single-phase transformer will have twowindings. One of the Low voltage side and one on the high voltage side. North-American distribution transformers will have three: one high-voltage winding, and two low-voltage windings connected in series.However......a single-phase transformer can also have several primary and several secondary windings. The primary windings can be connected in series or in parallel with each other, as can the secondary windings. For example, taking the primary winding as an example, it could consist of two 120-V rated windings: if connected in series, it could be supplied with 240 V without exceeding its voltage rating; if connected in parallel, it could be supplied with 120 V without exceeding its voltage rating. Multiwinding single-phase transformers allow for a variety of connections.
What is the procedure to polarity test a 3 phase transformer?
A 'polarity test' is conducted on a single-phase transformer, not a three-phase transformer (or transformer bank). The polarity of a single-phase transformer being important if two transformers are to be connected in parallel, or three transformers are going to be connected to form a three-phase transformer bank.'Angular displacement' is, to a three-phase transformer, what 'polarity' is to a single-phase transformer. So you really should be asking about angular displacement, rather than polarity. Angular displacement, or 'phase displacement', is the angle by which the secondary line voltage lags the primary line voltage.Angular displacement can be determined either by drawing a phasor diagram of the three-phase connection and measuring it, or by looking up the connection in a vector-group chart/table -you would nor normally 'calculate' angular displacement.
Why transformer rating is not given in kw?
Transformer rating is based on the maximum temperature a transformer can run at. This temperature is dictated by the amount of current flowing through the transformer windings. This is why transformers are rated in KVA (voltage * current), not kW - it doesn't matter what the phase relationship is between voltage and current, just the magnitude of the current.
Load test on single phase transformer?
The dc tests that can be done on a transformer are to measure the resistance of each windings and to measure the insulation resistance between the windings and between each winding and the transformer case.

What is the three phase transformer?
it has three primary windings & three secondary windings.

Is 3 phase star transformer has more winding than delta?
The # of windings in a transformer are based on the primary and secondary voltages the transformer is rated for not the way the windings are connected.
Basic operation of a 3-phase transformer?
Three Phase transformers have three windings. If connected in Delta, it will have R Y B phase winding, voltage between RY, YB and BR. Phase voltage and line voltage are same. If connected in Star, there will be a neutral as well with RYB. Line voltage and Phase voltage are different. Line voltage = 1.73 x Phase voltage.

What is the current of 1MVA transformer?
This depends on the voltage, and whether it is a three phase or single phase transformer.
How many coils are there in a transformer?
There are normally only one set of primary windings in a transformer. Some may have multiple windings though so that they can cover a wider range of input voltages.
Is there a neutral on a three phase transformer?
It depends on whether you are wye or delta connected. A transformer is a transformer, and a three phase transformer is simply three transformers. The key is in how you hook them up.AnswerIt depends on how the transformer is connected. If one set of windings is connected in star (or wye), then the star point is/canbe earthed and becomes the neutral for that particular connection; this is the standard connection for the secondary (low-voltage) of European distribution transformers. In North American three-phase distribution transformers, the secondary windings are connected in delta, and one phase is centre tapped, earthed, and that becomes the neutral point for a 240/120-V split-phase supply to a residence.This answer applies to both three-phase transformers, and to single-phase transformers which have been connected to form a three-phase transformer bank. (It is incorrect to say that a three-phase transformer is simply three single-phase transformers!)
Is line voltage or phase voltage mentioned on transformer nameplate?
It depends how they are connected. If they are connected between line conductors then they are measuring line voltages. If they are connected across phases then they are measuring phase voltages.
