The three phase windings in a transformer / generator / motor can be interconnected in two ways:

STAR

If the similar ends of each winding are connected together and the other ends are connected to the 3 incoming supply service lines, that is called "star connection". The centrally-connected point is known as the "neutral" connection point. The service "line-to-line" voltage (between any 2 lines) is 1.732 times the voltage between any line and neutral. Thus we can get two voltages for distribution within a building or site to supply lighting and power. However the service line currents are the same as the phase winding currents.

DELTA

If the dissimilar ends of each winding are labelled A and B and the three windings are then connected together B->A, B->A, B->A, and the 3 incomiing supply service lines are then connected to the junctions, that is called "delta connection". Here the values of line voltage and phase voltage are the same while the service line currents are 1.732 times the phase winding currents.

What is the star point of a CT?

The term, 'star point', refers to the common point of connection for the three windings of a star-connected (wye-connected) transformer connection. The star point is usually earthed (grounded) and provides the neutral point of the connection.

Star-star connection of transformer?

Star Star TransformerStar Star Transformer is formed in a 3 phase transformer by connecting one terminal of each phase of individual side, together. The common terminal is indicated by suffix 1 in the figure below. If terminal with suffix 1 in both primary and secondary are used as common terminal, voltages of primary and secondary are in same phase. That is why this connection is called zero degree connection or 0o - connection.If the terminals with suffix 1 is connected together in HV side as common point and the terminals with suffix 2 in LV side are connected together as common point, the voltages in primary and secondary will be in opposite phase. Hence, Star Star Transformer connection is called 180o - Connection, of three phase transformer.Vikram Meena


What is the purpose of star delta connection in a transformer?

A star winding has a red yellow and blue phases. The centre point of every stay winding is used as d nuetral point. Hence the star winding in a transformer enables a nuetral point.


Why is star connection used in a three phase transformer?

The power of all three phases can be transmitted on three conductors.A star connection, as opposed to a delta, provides a grounding reference. Also, for ground faults on the secondary (assuming no delta third winding, or source third winding) will be a direct ratio similar to phase faults, instead of 57%. Another reason is to avoid the inherent phase shift involved in a delta/star configured transformer.Another AnswerA 'star-connected' secondary is the standard European connection for a three-phase distribution transformer, as it provides a line voltage of 400 V together with a phase voltage (i.e. line to neutral) of 230 V.


Can you replace DY11 by DYN11 transformer?

Yes, you can replace a DY11 transformer with a DYN11 transformer, but it is important to consider the differences in their winding configurations and phase shifts. The DY11 transformer has a wye (star) connection on the primary side and a delta connection on the secondary side, while the DYN11 transformer has a delta connection on the primary side and a wye connection on the secondary. This change in configuration may affect voltage levels and phase relationships in your system, so it's essential to ensure compatibility with existing equipment and load requirements. Always consult with an electrical engineer before making such a replacement.
