Two transformers are needed to make an open delta connection.

Explanation of Solution

Delmar's Standard Textbook Of Electricity, Chapter 28, Problem 1RQ

The open delta connection is used when the amount of three-phase power needed is not excessive. From the figure it can be seen that the open-delta transformer connection can be made with only two transformers. The total output power is 86.6% of the sum of the power rating of the two transformers when an open-delta connection is used.
