Answer / vasudeva rao

1)in star there is a possible of neutral (i.e return path)
but in delta thereis no return path

What are the advantages and disadvantes of delta and star connections in transformers and alternat..

Answer / karthick

in star IL=IPH .......... in delta VL=VPH

accoding to kirchofs law meeting towards point and away
from point is equal to zero
so in star neutral is done
no neutral in delta connection
