Study of six phase transmission line using the autotransformer conversion

Abstract

This paper presents the application of an autotransformer for the conversion from three phases to six phase transmission line. The autotransformer with tertiary winding is used to achieve and design consideration in this research. The conversion is tested and simulated using a simple test system which is fed from the source through transmission line about 20km to a power distribution load model. This research focuses on the conversion of the autotransformer and transmission line and measurement to be considered are efficiency, phase angle, waveform current, waveform voltage and the power transfer each phase. The performances of these parameters are presented and discussed.
