- An open delta connection transformer uses two single-phase transformers to provide a three-phase supply to the load.
- An open delta connection system is also called a V-V system.
- Open delta connection systems are usually only used in emergency conditions when one of the transformers in the Delta-Delta system is damaged, and removed from service.
- Efficiency for the operation of open delta connection is low as compared to delta-delta systems which are used during standard operations.
Power supplied by open delta connection
Power supplied by open delta connection
Therefore,
Hence, the total load supplied by the open delta system is 57.77% of the closed delta system.
