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)...
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...
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...
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.
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.
