    wye - wye transformer

    Hi all, thanks for your comments. I also think that there is some cofusion. Having in mind that we are talking about a 3 leg distribution transformer 400 kVA 33/0.4 kV ZNyn11 to supply the auxiliaries of an offshore substation (various UPS rectifiers are part of the substation auxiliaries)...

    wye - wye transformer

    Replying to Bill's questions: It is a 400 kVA 33/0.4 kV ZNyn11 distribution transformer to supply the auxiliaries of an offshore substation (various UPS rectifiers are part of the substation auxiliaries). See below: On the primary side we have 3 cables from the 33 kV bus and on the secondary...

    wye - wye transformer

    Hi all, To sum up what I have understood: - As in my case we have a ZNyn transformer -> no need of stabilization delta. - Zero sequence currents will appear when having unbalance load or in case of earth fault and will circulate through both neutral points and the ground. Then 2 questions...

    wye - wye transformer

    Thanks for your reply. I think I am starting to better understand the behaviour of the Y-Y transformers. Let's see if I am able to elaborate a good technical justification to convince the client that a ZNyn11 transformer is the best choice for our application and not ZNyn(d)11.

    wye - wye transformer

    Hi RRaghunath, Thanks for your reply. You are right that my question was not very clear. Why tertiary winding is not relevant on ZYyn transformers?

    wye - wye transformer

    Dear all, Is it mandatory on Y-Y transformers to install a tertiary stabilizing winding? For example in an application of earthing auxiliary transformer ZNyn11 33/0.4 kV 400 kVA is there any way to omite and save the tertiary winding? Best regards.
