Types and Construction of Transformers

Single-Phase Transformers:

1. Core-Type: Windings surround the laminated core.


2. Shell-Type: Core surrounds the windings for better flux
containment.

3. Berry-Type: Cylindrical design, mostly for low-power


applications.
Three-Phase Transformers:

1. Core-Type: Three limbs with windings on each limb.

2. Shell-Type: Three sets of windings surrounded by laminated cores.

3. : Three single-phase transformers connected in a group (Delta or


Star).

1. *Star-Star (Y-Y) Connection:*

2. *Delta-Delta (Δ-Δ) Connection:*

3. *Star-Delta (Y-Δ) Connection:*

4. *Delta-Star (Δ-Y) Connection:*

Materials and Construction:

 Core: Made of laminated silicon steel to minimize losses.

 Windings: Copper or aluminum for high conductivity, insulated


for safety.

 Cooling: Air-cooled (dry type) or oil-cooled for better heat


dissipation.
