Three-Phase Transformer Banks
The secondary phases of a three-phase transformer bank (three standard single-
phase transformers connected to each other) will either match the primary phases
or be offset by 180° from the primary phases, depending on transformer polar-
ity and bank connections. The Field Unit can be set to compensate for this phase
shift (refer to the section Adjusting for Phase Shift)
Note: The table below assumes that all measurements (primary and
secondary) were taken with the same Field Unit Phase Shift setting.
