not necessarily

if the power source is delta the y voltages (or phase to ground) may not be predictable

there is 3phase delta with one leg grounded

there is 3 phase 240 delta with center of one phase grounded for 120/240 single phase for lights

primary on these is all 240 delta

y would be 0 120 132 240 or 277 depending on that ground point

What is dyn11 and dyn12?

Dyn11 and Dyn12 are connection configurations for three-phase transformers, indicating the phase shift between the primary and secondary windings. In Dyn11, the primary winding is connected in delta (D) and the secondary in star (y), with a phase shift of 30 degrees, which is often used in step-down transformers. Conversely, Dyn12 also has a delta primary and star secondary but with a 30-degree phase shift in the opposite direction, making it suitable for specific applications where reverse phase shift is required. These configurations help in maintaining balanced loads and optimizing voltage regulation in power systems.


Why do we use star to star connection in motor?

In a high voltage installation, with the same power, current drawn is small compared to those in low voltage. However it requires a thicker insulation, thus cost of insulation is significant compared to the conductor cost. By using a star connected winding, the insulation voltage required is equal to line to neutral connection, otherwise if it is connected in delta the insulation rating has to be provided for a line to line connection. Despite having a higher current, the total cost is still lower compared to using a higher insulation rating.


Can you hook up a delta to delta transformer to be a delta to wye transformer?

The open Delta or V-Connection transformer is an improvement of the 1 three-phase transformer. The open Delta transformer can restore power in a Delta-Delta three-phase bank when one of the three single-phase transformers, which can be individually disconnected and replaced in case of failure, breaks down. The open Delta transformer then allows functionality to be restored, but at a reduced power of 57.7 of the original power.


What is the main difference between star and delta connection for 3-phase machines?

The difference is where they are grounded in the supply transformer. If you're the same guy that continues to ask questions regarding delta and star or "Y" connections, then you probably already know the answer.High voltage transmission lines supply power to step down transformers to supply buildings. The power will likely go through a switchgear to control overcurrent and distribute the electricity to a number of transformers. Those transformers will typically step down the voltage through a "Delta" (primary) and "Y" secondary.The Delta primary is grounded at a mid-point between two of the three phases, this creates the so called high leg out of the third phase. The Y secondary is grounded at the center of the Y.For more information see the answers to the Related Questions shown below.


Is a Potential Transformer a step down transformer?

PT's are typically used for metering and relaying purposes to sample the power system voltage and phase angles. The primary is at line voltage, and the secondary is typically between 66 - 120 volts (depending on primary connection, Line to Line or Line to Neutral). So yes, PT's are step down transformers.

Why high voltage step down transformer uses delta as primary and wye connection as secondary?

because usually the step down transformers are used for supply so it requires neutral(return)path, we cant take neutral path through delta connection hence the star connection is used and mostly in step-down the star connection is used.

What is DY11 transformer?

A DY11 transformer is a three-phase transformer configuration where the high voltage winding is connected in a delta (Δ) configuration and the low voltage winding is connected in a star (Y) configuration. This configuration is commonly used in power distribution systems to step down high voltage to a lower voltage for industrial and commercial applications.

Are deltas created by erosion or deposition?

Deltas are created by deposition. They form when sediment carried by a river is deposited as the river slows down and meets standing water, such as an ocean or lake. Erosion plays a role in shaping the delta, but the primary process involved in delta formation is deposition.
