This is a very basic and simplistic description of how to wind a transformer. The first thing that you have to establish is what is the primary voltage you are going to use and what voltage do you want to appear on the secondary side of the transformer. Find the ratio between the primary to secondary voltages. Wrap your flexible insulating material around your iron core. Wrap your magnet wire around the iron core to form the primary coil. Depending on what type of iron core that you are using (there are many different types) wrap your secondary coil to the ratio of turns that you have calculated to obtain the secondary voltage that you want. Sometimes the secondary is wrapped over the primary coil with insulation material between the windings. Never wrap the magnet wire directly on to the iron core, always use use flexible insulation material. The insulation on magnet wire is just varnish and if the wire is directly applied to the iron core, the 50 or 60Hz frequency vibration will eventually wear through the insulation and short the winding out.
What else can I help you with?
How do you design a transformer with three phase 400v input and single phase 2000v output?
By design are you going to wind the transformer yourself? In your design you need a 5:1 ratio. On the output side of the transformer any two legs of a three phase transformer is considered single phase voltage. Good luck on your project.
What is the current of 1MVA transformer?
This depends on the voltage, and whether it is a three phase or single phase transformer.
How do you convert a 3-phase system to a single phase?
By having a transformer with 3 phase input and single phase out put
Why the need of harmonics in single phase transformer?
Harmonics are really not needed in single phase transformers.
What is this system called with three single phase transformer?
Your question is rather vague. If you are asking what do you call a group of single-phase transformers, connected to supply three phase, then the answer is a 'three-phase transformer bank'.
How you differentiate between single phase and three phase transformer?
A single-phase transformer works with a single-phase supply, while a 3-phase transformer is used with a 3-phase supply. A single-phase transformer has 2 wires on the primary and secondary (ignoring taps) while a 3-phase tansformer has 3 or 4 wires on the primary and secondary.
Would you install three-phase transformer or bank of three single phase transformer in a large power station and justify by comparing the two schemes?
A three-phase transformer bank is often used in power stations because it is easier to construct and transport very large single-phase transformers, compared with constructing and transforming an equivalent-capacity three-phase transformer.
How do you test a single phase transformer?
with an meg ohm meter
Can 3 single phase transformers can replace 1 three phase transformer?
Yes, you can use three single phase transformers on three phase applications and interconnect them to serve as a single transformer or you could use one single phase transformer fed from two of the three lines in a step down application.
How many 16 Amps per phase welding outlet can you install to a 30 KvA rating transformer?
..the questions does not say wether the 30kVA transformer is 3 phase transformer or single phase transformer..but it is implying that a single phase welding load at 16A per phase is to be connect to it, it is assumed then that the transformer is 3 phase transformer..we assume load is rated 240V.. ..though not much details is given about the transformer voltage specs. but if is rated 3 phase 415/240V, the approx full load current per phase is given by 30KVAx1.3912=41.736A.. ..but if the transformer was rated single phase 240V say, the approx full load current FLC=30000/240V gives 125ampers.. ..if you further devide the FLC by the intended load current.. ..Recommended no of welders per for a 3 phase 415V transformer and assuming single welding sets =41.736/16=2.6..so you can connect max two welding sets to this transformer per phase,..max 6 weld sets can connect at an approx load factor of 76%.. ..for the single phase transformer, FLC/16=125/16, gives 7.8 but is also recommended not to connect more than 6 welding sets to such transformer for the same reasons..
What will happen if apply two phase supply to a three phase transformer?
A three phase transformer is simply three transformers so, supplying one phase to a set of three transformers will result in only one phase output. Any loads connected to that transformer that are expecting three phase power will malfunction, and could fail.AnswerA three-phase transformer is NOT 'three separate single-phase transformers', as suggested in the original answer. It is a single transformer with three primary and secondary phase-windings wound around a common three-limb ('core') or five-limb ('shell') core. If a single-phase supply was applied to one of the three primary windings, then single phase voltages would appear across each of the three secondary windings and the remaining two primary windings. These voltages would not be out of phase with each other.
Why would you use a three phase transformer in place of a single phase transformer?
the necesscity of two three phase transformers operating in parallel are as follows...if the one transformer fails to give supply,then another transformer can be used in parallel and hance,continuity of supply can be maintained.one transformer can be easily take out from the supply for repair & maintanance.if the load on the substation increases beyond the rated values of transformer, then another transformer can be used to share rhe load of the substation.
