    Scott connections are used for:
    Question

    Scott connections are used for:

    A.

    Single phase to three phase transformation

    B.

    Three phase to single phase transformation

    C.

    Three phase to two phase transformation

    D.

    none of the above

    Correct option is C

    Scott connections are used for (c) Three phase to two phase transformation. 
    Explanation: A Scott connection, also known as a Scott-T connection, utilizes two single-phase transformers to convert a three-phase power supply into a two-phase power supply. 
    Scott connections:


    · Two transformers:
    One is called the "main" transformer and the other is called the "teaser" transformer. 
    · Voltage relationship:
    The teaser transformer operates at a voltage which is √3/2 (approximately 0.866) times the voltage of the main transformer. 
    · Application:
    This connection is often used in situations where a two-phase power supply is required, like in some electric furnace installations.
