How can you test the vector group of power transformers?

Answer Posted / thowsif_emerson_csm team

A Vector group is the International Electrotechnical
Commission (IEC) method of categorizing the primary and
secondary winding configurations of three-phase
transformers. Within a polyphase system power transformer
it indicates the windings configurations and the difference
in phase angle between them.[1]

The phase windings of a polyphase transformer can be
connected together internally in different configurations,
depending on what characteristics are needed from the
transformer. For example, in a three-phase power system, it
may be necessary to connect a three-wire system to a four-
wire system, or vice versa. Because of this, transformers
are manufactured with a variety of winding configurations
to meet these requirements.
