A Scott-T transformer is a type of circuit used to produce two-phase electric power from a three-phase source, or vice versa. The Scott connection evenly distributes a balanced load between the phases of the source.
Where are Scott connected transformers used?
Typical applications for a Scott-T transformer include: Used in an electric furnace installation where it is needed to operate two single-phase feeds and draw a balanced load from the three-phase supply. Used to supply the single phase loads such as traction power.
What are the advantages of Scott connection?
Advantages of the Scott T Connection:
If desired, a three phase, two phase, or single phase load may be supplied simultaneously. The neutral points can be available for grounding or loading purposes.
