Why is the sun a secondary star?

The sun is not a secondary star but is the main star in our solar system. It is described as a G-type main-sequence star, which means it is in the middle of its life cycle and generates energy through nuclear fusion in its core. Other stars in the universe can be classified as primary and secondary in binary star systems based on their characteristics and interactions.

Why we use delta-star transformer instead of star-star transformer in a consumer plant.?

There is a problem called "neutral phase shift" in star-star transformer, if we connect unbalance load(single phase load at secondary), then the phase point is shifted towards neutral. we require sinusoidal secondary voltage at secondary, for this flux must be sinusoidal. Flux will be sinusoidal, if it contains the third harmonic component of exciting current. so third harmonic current can not flow in star-star transformer. so we use delta-star transformer,in delta , third harmonic component can flow & get sinusoidal output.
