If the motor is designed to operate on star (wye) then it is fine. If it is designed to operate on delta, then you need to consider that star will present lower operating voltage than delta, and that might damage the motor.
Some motors are designed to start on star and run on delta. Usually, this applies to larger motors, and cannot be overlooked. If there are only three wires (ignoring chassis ground), then the motor is intended for delta. If there are only four wires, the the motor is intended for star. If there are six wires, then the motor is intended for star-delta. Of course, the starter controls could be integrated with the motor, so it is best to consult the name plate and operate the motor exactly as it was designed.

What will happen if induction motor is in star-star connected?
If a motor is connected in a star configuration it will operate at a slower speed. This is the working process that a star delta starter operates on. At first through the starter the motor starts in the star connection. When the motor gets up to its highest speed in that connection it times a timer out , the star starter drops out and the delta starter pulls in and then connects the motor in the delta connection. This allows more voltage to be applied to the motor and it then speeds up to its nameplate rated RPM.
How can a dlta connected motor be converted in star?
If the motor terminal has six terminals in the terminal box, then it can be connected either in delta or star. If there are only 3 terminal wires then the motor can not be connected in star.(it means that the motor is designed to be connected in delta only)
Why you are using star connected induction motor and delta connected induction motor?

What will happen if resistors are connected in DC motor?
The value and kind of resistors, connected in series or paralell, type of dc motor, what is the purpose, etc.
How do star and delta configured three phase induction motors perform differently?
Star Delta starter control wiring ensures that initially the Motor winding is connected in Star and after set timer (few seconds) the winding gets connected in Delta automatically. There three power contactors and timers to make it happen.
What is the difference of a star or delta connection on motor terminals?
230/400 V These motors can be connected in star to a mains of 400 V between the phases (see figure 1). figure 1 Star connection 400/695 V These motors should be connected in delta to a mains of 400 V between the phases (see figure 2).
What is the current in star connection?
If a motor is connected in star, the current in the motor winding will be equivalent to the line current. If the motor is connected in delta, the current will be 1/sqrt(3) of the line current. If three phase CTs are connected in Delta, their secondary current will be sqrt(3) higher than the CT ratio implies by the line current.
Why armature winding is star connected for synchronous motor?
Because your momma said so
Why motor connect in star connection?
hot motor are connected in star because it deals with the voltage in case small Power system, which the voltz could either drop or rise.
What does a Y mean on a printed circuit board?
it means that it's star connected on the motor part
Why does star connected motor run at less amps?
In star, a motor is connected with 415V across 2 phases, which means Line voltage is 240V (415 / 1.7ish) In delta theres 415 across each phase, therefore I = much higher according to Ohms law (I = V/R) Hypothetically; load of 24ohms connected on the motor In star; I = 240 / 24 = 10A In delta I = 415 / 24 = 17.2A Hope this helps a little
Why use star delta gether for motor?
In a large power motor the starting current is too high if connected 'direct on line'. If you start a motor on 'star' connection it uses less current to get it going before the 'delta' connection takes over.
