What is the requirement of Tertiary winding?

In delta-delta, delta-star and star-delta all


transformers voltages are balanced and there is no
floating of neutral.
The floating of neutral is developed in the case
star-star connection only. The transformers are
sometimes constructed with three windings. The main
windings are connected to form star-star connection
and the third winding known as tertiary winding is
used to make a closed delta connection to stabilize
the neutrals of both primary and secondary circuits.
The tertiary winding carries the third-harmonic
currents.
HARMONICS are caused because of use of high flux
densities in the core. If the core gets saturated
during part of the sinusoidal wave, then secondary
wave will be non-sinusoidal. This may be due to
inadequate core area or characteristics of core
material.
Harmonic currents result in higher copper loss, core
loss, magnetic interference and interference with
communication systems.
Harmonic voltages result in increased dielectric
loss, interference with communication systems and
resonance between inductance of the winding and
capacitance of transmission line.
