Question

A ∆-∆ connected transformer is connected to V-V connected transformer. The ratio of VA rating of the V-V connected transformer and ∆-∆ connected transformer is:

A.

0.777

B.

0.577

C.

0.677

D.

0.877

Correct option is B

To determine the ratio of the VA rating of a V - V connected transformer to a ΔΔ connected transformer, we can use the relationship between the two configurations.In a Δ(Delta-Delta) connection, all three phases are used, and the power transfer is maximized.However, in a V - V (or Open-Delta) connection, only two transformers are used instead of three, which results in a reduced power capacity. The VA rating of the V - V connection is 57.7% (or 13) of the VA rating of the ΔΔ connection.Therefore, the ratio of the VA rating of the V - V connected transformer to the ΔΔ connected transformer is:VAVVVAΔΔ=0.577\text{To determine the ratio of the VA rating of a V - V connected transformer to a } \Delta - \Delta \text{ connected transformer, we can use the relationship between the two configurations.}\\\text{In a } \Delta - (\text{Delta-Delta}) \text{ connection, all three phases are used, and the power transfer is maximized.}\\\text{However, in a V - V (or Open-Delta) connection, only two transformers are used instead of three, which results in a reduced power capacity.
