Difference between series and parallel connection, star delta connection.

Question

Accepted Answer

Series and parallel connections are different ways of connecting electrical components, while star-delta connection is a method used for three-phase motors.

In series connection, components are connected end-to-end, creating a single path for current flow.
In parallel connection, components are connected side by side, creating multiple paths for current flow.
Series connection increases total resistance and decreases total current, while parallel connection decreases total resistance and increases total current.
Star-delta connection is used for three-phase motors to reduce starting current and provide a smooth start.
In star connection, all three motor windings are connected to a common point, while in delta connection, the windings are connected in a triangular shape.
