Spare transformer connecting means

TLDR
In this article, a power system in which first, second and third single-phase transformers have their primary windings connected in delta is described, where a spare transformer is disposed physically adjacent to the third transformer and is provided with switching means for connecting its primary winding to the bus in a manner that enables the spare to serve as a replacement for the third transformers.
Abstract
Discloses a power system in which first, second and third single-phase transformers have their primary windings connected in delta. A spare transformer is disposed physically adjacent the third transformer and is provided with switching means for connecting its primary winding to the bus in a manner that enables the spare to serve as a replacement for the third transformer. Additional switching means is provided for connecting the primary winding of the third transformer to the bus in a way that enables the third transformer to serve as a replacement for the second transformer, should such replacement be necessary. Still additional switching means is provided for connecting the primary of the second transformer to the bus in a way that enables the second transformer to serve as a replacement for the first transformer, should this latter replacement be necessary.

Alternating current feeder system for trolley-assisted dump trucks

Teruo Minami
TL;DR: In this article, an alternating current feeder system for use in trolley assisted dump trucks has a feeder circuit of a Scott connection transformer used as a main substation, main- and T-winding sections having a phase difference of 90 degrees on the secondary side of the transformer and serving to transform three-phase a.c. power into single phase one supplied to feeder substations, each being adapted to drop the voltage applied on trolley wires to the level required for the latter.
