What Does It Mean By Dny11 in Transformer?

We often see transformers in our way almost every day, everywhere. We all might have noticed that there is something written in the transformer like Dny11. But we don't know what does it mean? We can guess that the numbers on the transformer windings show the turns ratio between windings. But by reading this article we might confirm this guess. 


The first letter D shows that the primary winding configuration is in delta connection. The second small letter n shows that it has the neutral point and the small y shows that it is star connected. Letter 11 shows the phase difference between the primary and secondary connection according to clock configuration. When the clock hands are between 11 and 12 the angle between them is 30 degrees.

So, Dny11 means 

D- Primary winding in delta connection

ny-Secondary winding in star connection with a neutral point

11- There is a phase angle difference of 30 degrees between the primary and secondary line voltages. The secondary line voltage lags by 30 degrees to the primary voltage. Now we know the meaning of each letter.

So in short Dny11 written in a transformer means that has a delta connected primary winding a star connected secondary with the star point brought out and a phase shift of a 30 degree leading 11. It is a 3 phase transformer whose primary side is delta connected and the secondary side is star connected. Here Dny11 is the vector group and the primary side is leading the other side which is the secondary side by a 30-degree angle. This type of power transformer is mainly used in 33/11 kV substations for strengthening the distribution system. Dny11 transformer is widely used in distribution because in the transmission in the power, at some points voltage is stepped up and at some times voltage is stepped down. So to make the system highly efficient, delta winding is used at the l.v side while the star is used.

By this time we have noticed that it is not DNY11 but Dny11. The overall summary is, capital D means the primary side of the transformer is delta connected. Small ny means the secondary side is connected with y with neutral brought out. 11 represents phase shift, which corresponds to 11h in a round clock, a phase is a 30-degree angle which means 330 degrees.

The Causes of Load Shedding

 Load shedding is a terrible thing to experience. Especially in summer. But have we ever wondered what causes load shedding? Load shedding is the shutdown of the power distribution system when the capacity of power is less than the demand. Today we will discuss this topic briefly.  Load Shedding Load shedding is an intentional blackout in engineer electrical power shutdown for a time period in different parts of the distribution region. Load shedding depends on the shortage of capacity to meet the demand for electricity. load shedding occurs to avoid a complete blackout of the power system. Blackouts can be localized to a specific part of it can be in the whole country. Sometimes blackouts can happen due to extreme weather. Usually, the blackouts can be caused by insufficient capacity or inadequate infrastructure to deliver power.  The causes of load shedding 1. System loss After producing the power the next part is to distribute it among the consumers. But if the suppli...

5 Ways How Artificial Intelligence Will Impact Our Future

In the world of technology AI is on the tip of everyone's tongue these days. AI being a major trend in tech development for a while, AI appearing more and more like one of the most demands in areas of expertise. Artificial intelligence is the simulation of human intelligence processes by machines, especially computer systems. Specific applications of AI include expert systems, natural language processing, speech recognition, and machine vision. Most artificial intelligence systems have the ability to learn, which allows improving their performance over time. The recent research on AI tools, including machine learning, deep learning, and predictive analysis intended toward increasing the planning, learning, reasoning, thinking, and action-taking ability. As AI is becoming part of our life, it will affect our future nearly. Here I am showing some of the scenarios that can be happen in near future: Transportation: Although it could take a decade or more to happen, autonomous cars will...
