What is the Star Delta in a motor connection

Question

Accepted Answer

Star Delta connection is a method used to reduce the starting current of a motor.

Star Delta connection involves connecting the motor windings in a star configuration during starting and then switching to a delta configuration once the motor reaches a certain speed.
It is commonly used for large induction motors to reduce the starting current and torque.
This method helps in preventing damage to the motor and reduces stress on the electrical supply network.
Star Delta connection is also known as Wye Delta connection.
