Abstract







Phase shifting transformers (PST) are new elements in the Polish power system. Their main task is to enable the transmission system operator to control the active power flows at the cross-border connection between the Polish and the German power systems. The paper presents the design characteristics of a 2-tank, 3-phase, symmetric phase shifting transformer (including key structural aspects) and the idea of its operation. A description of the structure of the automatic protection applied to this phase shifting transformer is included, with consideration of the measuring transducer locations and the protection criteria employed in the protection from the effects of high current short circuits.
