Star-Delta Transformer | Electrical Devices | Electrical Engineering

In a star-star or delta-delta 3-phase transformer there is no phase shift between the corresponding voltages of any phase to neutral on either side. However, a delta-connected winding is desirable in many power transformers for reasons of harmonic elimination. As such most of the power transformers are either star-delta or delta-star connected. In such transformers, even under normal operating condition, [...]

Surge Capacitor, Reactor and Absorber | Devices | Electrical Engineering

In this article we will discuss about the functions of surge capacitor, reactor and absorber in a power system. Damage caused by over-voltages depends not only on the amplitude of an incoming wave but also on the steepness of its wave front. The device, which reduces the steepness of the wave front of a particular surge and thus minimises the [...]
