Theory: -

One of the transformers has center taps both on the primary and secondary winding and is known as the main transformer. The other transformer has a 0.866 tap and is known as teaser transformer. One end of both the primary and secondary of the teaser transformer is joined to the center taps on both primary and secondary of the main transformer respectively. Primary are connected to the supply. 1. Current in the teaser transformer is in phase with the voltage. 2. In the main transformer, Current leads the voltage by 30 0 across one half but lags the voltage by 30 0 across the other half as shown in vector diagram Hence, when the balanced load of power factor= cos , is applied the teaser current will lag or lead the voltage by , while in the two halves of the main transformer, the angle between current

and voltage will be (300 - ) & (300 + ). The situation is similar to that existing in a V-V connection.

Procedure: 1. Connections are made as per the circuit diagram. 2. Note down the primary and secondary voltages. Note that voltages of the two secondary phases are equal. 3. Apply equal loads across two secondaries such that equal currents flow in two secondary windings. 4. Record primary currents of all the 3-lines, primary voltages and secondary voltages. 5. Repeat 4 and 5 steps to various loads. 6. Apply different loads on two secondaries such that two currents in the secondary are not equal. 7. Repeat above steps to various load settings. 8. Calculate I1T and I1M values at different loads and compare them with practical values.
