Three phase alternators are connected in star connection
why?

Answer Posted / ashna & anju

in star conection ,phase voltage is lesser than line
voltage and induced emf in the phase winding of an
alternator is directly propotional to number of turns,a
star connected alternator will require less number of turns
than a delta connected one for the same line voltage.
