A delta-star connected three-phase transformer introduces a phase shift of

  • A.no phase shift at all between the two sides
  • B.60 degrees between primary and secondary line voltages
  • C.180 degrees between primary and secondary line voltages
  • D.30 degrees between primary and secondary line voltages

Answer: D

Correct answer: 30 degrees between primary and secondary line voltages

In a delta-star connection the primary line voltage is a phase voltage of the delta while the secondary line voltage is the difference of two star phase voltages, and the two differ in phase by 30 degrees. The shift matters when transformers are paralleled: two units must belong to the same vector group or a large circulating current will flow.
