in star-star neutral transformer at unbalanced load condition zerosequnce current will be flows in secondary side but this current can not be balanced by primary side because its not having neutral to circulate zerosequence current.due to this unbalance voltage will appeared in primary side but the tertiary delta winding allows circulate the zerosequence current so the primary voltage will get stabilized.

What is tertiary winding of a transformer?
A third winding - primary, secondary, and tertiary. The third winding is typically sized much smaller than the primary and secondary, and is very often a lower voltage; it can be used for stabilization, removal of 3rd harmonics, power factor correction injection (lower voltage inductors are cheaper), and station service.
How could you convert step up transformer into step down transformer?
Injecting power into the higher voltage winding of a transformer will make it act as a step down transformer; injecting power into the lower voltage winding will make it act as a step up transformer. A transformer can be used both ways.
How do you connect an earthing transformer with delta connected secondary?
You have to connect each phase (R,Y & B respectively) of earthing transformer zig zag winding to each phase of power transformer delta secondary respectively. Then the zig zag winding of earthing transformer star point to be earthed.
What is tertiary bus in substation?
Many substation transformers have three windings - the primary, secondary, and tertiary. The tertiary bus is the bus connected to the tertiary of the transformer. this is often used as station power for the substation, since the tertiary is very often a distribution level voltage (2 - 15kV).
What function does a capacitor serve in an auto transformer?
An autotransformer does not normally use any capacitors as it is a transformer with one winding and the lower voltage is taken from a tap part-way up the winding. A capacitor could be added if there is a concern about the power factor presented by the autotransformer to the supply.

Why transposition required of low voltage power transformer winding?
It is to reduce circulating current losses on winding.
Magnetic inrush current in power transformer with waveforms?
The mgnetic inrush current is the current drawn by the transformer when power is applied to the primary winding
Why power at the secondary winding is less than the power at the primary winding?
If power were greater at secondary you would have an unlimited source of power. It is less because there are always losses in a transformer.
What is Auto transformer and ordinary transformer?
auto transformer is a one winding transformer which is are used for step up and step down voltage without chang its power and friquncy
100 volts of ac are put across a 100 trun transformer primary what will be the voltage output if secondry has 200 truns what is power in each coil?
You have a 2-to-1 step-up transformer. The voltage across the secondary winding is 200 volts. The power in the secondary winding is the power required by whatever 200-volt device you connect across that winding. The power drawn by the primary winding from the 100-volt AC supply is somewhat more than the power delivered to the device by the secondary, since some power is lost in the transformer wire and core. That's why the transformer hums and gets warm.
Fundamental principle of current transducer?
The basic principle of current transformer is same as that of the power transformer. Like the power transformer current transformer also contains a primary and a secondary winding. Whenever an alternating current flows through the primary winding alternating magnetic flux is produced, which then induces alternating current in the secondary winding. In case of current transformers the load impedance or "burden" is very small. Therefore the current transformer operates under short circuit conditions. Also the current in the secondary winding does not depend load impedance but depends on the current flowing in the primary winding.
How do you measure the power input and power output for the step-up transformer?
Power input to a transformer = (voltage across the primary winding) x (current through the primary)Power output = (voltage across the secondary winding) x (current through the secondary)It doesn't matter whether the transformer is used in step-up, step-down or simple isolation.
How do you connect an earthing transformer with delta connected secondary?
You have to connect each phase (R,Y & B respectively) of earthing transformer zig zag winding to each phase of power transformer delta secondary respectively. Then the zig zag winding of earthing transformer star point to be earthed.
What multimeter readings set to measure resistance indicate an open circuit and short circuit in the primary and secondary windings of a mains power transformer. And what readings show good?
You cannot use an ordinary multimeter to assess the difference between a normal power transformer winding and a shorted power transformer winding. You need a Q meter and/or to power it up at a reduced voltage with limited current to see what happens. Note that a shorted power transformer is capable of exploding, so you need to take appropriate safety precautions.
What is tertiary bus in substation?
Many substation transformers have three windings - the primary, secondary, and tertiary. The tertiary bus is the bus connected to the tertiary of the transformer. this is often used as station power for the substation, since the tertiary is very often a distribution level voltage (2 - 15kV).
