I believe there might be a confusion in the term you mentioned. The correct term is "Scott-T" or "Scott Transformer" connection, not "Scott-T" transformer connection.
A Scott-T connection, also known as a Scott Transformer or Scott-T transformer connection, is a method used to convert a three-phase electrical system into a two-phase system. It was named after Charles F. Scott, who developed this method in the late 19th century.
The primary purpose of the Scott-T connection is to facilitate the operation of two-phase equipment using a three-phase supply. It is commonly used in situations where two-phase equipment is required but only a three-phase power supply is available.
The Scott-T connection consists of two sets of windings on the transformer's primary side, one set is connected in delta (Δ) configuration, and the other set is connected in a star (Y) configuration. The secondary side of the transformer consists of two windings with a 90-degree phase difference. One winding provides the original three-phase output, while the other winding produces a two-phase output with a 90-degree phase shift between the two phases.
This arrangement is particularly useful in certain applications, such as providing power to old two-phase equipment, as well as in some specialized industrial processes that require two-phase power. However, it is worth noting that the Scott-T connection is less common nowadays due to the widespread use of three-phase equipment and power systems. Modern power systems typically rely on three-phase transformers for most applications.
