Construction of Three Phase Transformers
A three-phase transformer can be constructed by using common magnetic core for both primary and secondary winding. As we discussed in the case of single phase transformers, construction can be core type or shell type. So, for a bank of three phase core type transformer, three core type single phase transformers are combined. Similarly, a bank of three phase shell type transformer is get by properly combining three shell type single phase transformers. In a shell type transformer, EI laminated core surrounds the coils whereas in core type coil surrounds the core.
