The star connection has three phase terminal leads and one neutral lead. In case of delta connection it has got three phase terminal leads. the star connection is generally represented by Mercedes symbol with neutral line drawn from the mid point. The delta is represented like a triangle symbol with noneutral line shown.

What is the difference between Y or Wye and Delta 3 phase power?
The transformer connection. Transformers can be connected in Wye (One side of each winding connected to the phase wire and the other connected to neutral or ground) or Delta (the polarity of each winding connected to the nonpolarity of another winding to form a triangle).There are different problems that arise as a result of being connected wye vs. delta or vice versa, and multiple fixes or partial fixes to address these.Alternative Answer'Wye' (also known as 'star') and 'delta' (also known as 'mesh') are two methods (there are others!) of connecting the three phase windings of alternators, transformers, and loads such as motors). A wye connection is generally a four-wire system, comprising three line conductors and a neutral conductor, whereas a deltaconnection is a three-wire system, comprising three line conductors. For a perfectly-balanced load (e.g. a three-phase motor), a wye-connected system can dispense with the neutral conductor. In wye-connected systems, the line voltage (line-to-line) is 1.732 times larger than the phase voltage (line-to-neutral). In a delta-connected system the line voltage is exactly the same as the phase voltage (line-to-line in both cases).
Where do you ground a delta delta transformer?
In a delta-delta transformer, none of the actual conductors are grounded, directly or indirectly. You do, however, always ground the casing. This is protective earth ground, or PE ground, as opposed to neutral, which is grounded at the distribution panel, but which is a current carrying conductor. PE ground is not a current carrying conductor - it is a safety ground. Some texts use the term grounded conductor to refer to neutral, and grounding conductor to refer to PE ground. Simplest designation is neutral and ground. In summary, for a delta-delta transformer, there is no neutral, but there is always a ground. There is always a ground in any circuit, even when there is a neutral, and, except in a few special cases, those are two different connections.
Is a step up transformer a Ynd or a Dyn?
Whether a transformer is 'step up' or 'step down' has nothing to do with the way its windings are connected, so it could be wye-delta or delta-wye.
How do you connect Wye connection to open delta connection?
Dont mess with transformers if u dont know how to read a wiring diagram It is easy if u know your relation to each of the phases and neutral and ground
Should a star-delta motor be supplied wye or delta power?
A star-delta motor should be supplied star-delta.Wye is simply another name for star. Star-delta motors use a star or wye configuration to start, and a delta configuration to run. This reduces the voltage on the windings during the high current starting time.
How can you terminate a 3 wire wye motor to a 3 phase delta connection?
To terminate a 3 wire wye motor to a 3 phase delta connection you need a 3 phase transformer to convert from delta to wye. Do not lift the common neutral connections inside the motor and rewire for delta, because the voltages will be wrong.
Why doesn't the primary winding on a transformer have a neutral?
In a three phase transformer, the primary winding is often configured in a Delta. The delta winding configuration does not use a neutral. The secondary winding is often in a Wye configuration, which does have a neutral. The Delta configuration is typically used for transmitting power to various locations, and thee phase loads where a neutral is not needed. The Wye configuration is typically used to distribute power in a facility where there are single phase loads that need a neutral. There are other reasons to use either Wye or Delta, such as grounding issues, but I think the short answer is probably what you're looking for (I hope). Hope this helps! Dave
What kind of 3 phase dry type tranform is used when you are using 110V loads to balance the three phases of that transform?
It would normally be a "Delta" "Wye" transformer. Delta on the high-voltage side, and Wye on the low-voltage side. The Wye windings will give you the neutral needed for 110 v. circuits
How change Dyn11 to Dyn3?
DYn1 = Delta connected highside winding, Wye connected lowside winding, neutral brought out, lowside lagging by 30 degrees DYn11 = delta connected highside winding, Wye connected lowside winding, neutral brought out, lowside leading by 30 degrees In a DYn1, the lowside A phase is coupled to the highside A-B leg. In a DYn11, the lowside A phase is coupled to the highside C-A leg. So to convert one to another, you must physically change this coupling, which would require rewiring the internal connections of the transfomer delta.
What is the difference between an open delta and an open wye connection?
An open delta connection is a delta connection with one phase removed, but still supplied with three line conductors. An open wye is a wye connection with one phase removed, supplying a three line conductors and a neutral conductor. An open-delta/open-wye is a method of providing a reduced-load three-phase supply using just two single-phase transformers, rather than the preferred method of using three single-phase transformers.
Diagram of star-delta connection of motor?
Unfortunately, WikiAnswers does not support graphic images, so I will have to describe the connection in words. There are three windings, each with two wires. That is six connections. There are four connections in a star (wye) source, three hots and a neutral. The star connection has one end of all three windings connected (together) to neutral and the other ends connected to each hot. The delta connection has each winding connected end-to-end to each other in a ring, and each common point is connected to a hot. Neutral is not used in delta.
When is a motor in star or delta connection?
Star (or wye) connection is where each of the three phases has a fourth conductor, neutral, as its current return. Current flow in this configuration is phase to neutral, which is also grounded back at the distribution center. There will be five total connections, phase A, B, and C, neutral, and (protective earth) ground. Delta connection is where each of the three phases uses the prior phase as its current return. Current flow in this configuration is phase to phase, and there is no neutral, though there is still a ground. There will be four total connections, phase A, B, and C, and (protective earth) ground.
Can you run a star motor in delta?
Delta motors should have more starting current than Wye (Star) motors because Delta motors have two windings to take current per phase -- they are wired Phase to Phase. Star motors have only one winding per phase -- they are wired Phase to Neutral.
What connection is the higher ampere between delta and wye?
For the same load, delta provides higher current than wye, or star.Wye voltage is 1 / 1.732, or 0.577 that of delta. (1.732 is the square root of 3.) This gives a power of 0.333 for wye, as opposed to delta. (0.5772 = 0.333)This is why (no pun intended) we use wye-delta starters on large motors - it allows them to come up to speed at 1/3 power, before switching to full power on delta.
Why neutral is not requied in 3 phase?
As far as I understand, you don't need neutral line for connecting appliances that is 3-phase compilant. You only need the neutral line to connect a single phase appliance, which you connect along with one of the three lines.

What is the difference between star delta and wye delta?
With a delta connection, picture a triangle. Each side of the triangle is a transformer or motor winding. Call the 3 corners of the triangle A, B, and C. There are only 3 wires except for a safety ground, which has no connection to, nor is any part of, the power transmission service lines.but for the star connection take our triangle above and use your wire cutters (literally) to cut the triangle apart at the corners. rearrange the three sides (transformer or motor windings) to form a Y. Where the three sides join in the centre, connect a fourth wire. Call this wire "neutral". Call the three ends A, B, and C. Connect the 3 supply service lines to A, B, and C.
