Three phase transformer converted to a split phase

Cerkit · Feb 23, 2016

Hi.

I have heard that it is possible by shorting/opening sections in a regular delta to start 3 phase transformer can produce a split phase output on the secondary.

Can anyone advise on this?

Thanks

Yes it called a Zig Zag connection.

What if you earth the middle phase can you obtain split phase output?

What do you think based on what searches and reading you have done?
