KWHR METERS FORMS 12, 14, 15, & 16 FOR DIFFERENT TRANSFORMER CONFIGURATIONS PART3

How does a three-phase kilowatt-hour meter being connected to its distribution transformers?

As promised, here are the different illustrations of how various three-phase electric kwhr meters type are wired correspoding to its transformer-bank configurations. A simple electrical schematic showing the transformer configuration in its meter type connection will be carefully illustrated below;


form12





Form 12 - A three phase kWh meter, three-wire, two-stator, self-contained meter. To measure the loading of a 3-wire wye or delta service configuration transformers.









form14






Form 14 - A three phase kWh meter, four-wire wye, two-stator, self-contained meter. To measure the loading of a 4-wire wye service configuration transformers.









form15







Form 15 - A three phase kWh meter, four-wire delta, two-stator, self-contained meter. To measure the loading of a 4-wire delta service configuration transformers.


















Form 16 - A three phase kWh meter, four-wire wye, three-stator, self-contained meter. To measure the loading of a 4-wire wye service configuration transformers.

    The illustrations clearly demonstrate how different three phase kWh meter types are wired for various transformer configurations.

PARTS OF A POWER TRANSFORMER

What are the name of the basic parts of a Power Transformer? We can not deny the fact that only a handful of electrical engineering students are presently familiar with power transformers especially on what it looks like. Unlike a transformer we found in our homes, a power transformer’s appearance and construction is somewhat more complicated. It is not just a simple winding with a primary and secondary terminal although basically any transformer has one. The function that a power transformer plays in an electrical system is very important that an electric utility can not afford to loss it during its operation. Our discussion here will focus more on the basic parts and functions of a power transformer that are usually tangible whenever you go to a substation . Although not all power transformers are identical, nonetheless they all have the following listed parts in which the way of construction may differ.

ELECTRIC MOTOR NAMEPLATE SPECIFICATIONS

How do we interpret an electric motor nameplate? Motor standards are established on a country by country basis.Fortunately though, the standards can be grouped into two major categories: NEMA and IEC (and its derivatives). In North America, the National Electric Manufacturers Association (NEMA) sets motor standards, including what should go on the nameplate (NEMA Standard MG 1-10.40 "Nameplate Marking for Medium Single-Phase and Polyphase Induction Motors").

DISADVANTAGES OF Y-Y CONNECTION IN THREE PHASE SYSTEM

What are the disadvantages in using y-y connection? The Y-Y transformer connection was poorly understood in the early days of power engineering and it received a very bad reputation when it was first used; in fact, this connection was avoided for a long time until its limitations were overcome by good engineering practice. Some of the inherent disadvantages of the Y-Y connection are discussed below:
