Three phase alternators are connected in star connection why?..

Answer / 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.

Answer / $$$

TTT
IT IS BECAUSE THIRD HARMONICS CAN BE ELIMINATED USING STAR
CONNECTION AND DISTRIBUTED WINDINGS IN 3-PH ALTERNATORS..

Answer / meenakshi

i feel the answer given by $$$ and ajay is correct.in delta
its closed loop, so it allows the parasitic current to
circulate in the loop which is an undesirable one.

Answer / muhammed konikkal

out put is required in AC form with neutral.Neutral can be taken only from Star connection. We can take out put single phase or three phase depending our load.

Three phase alternators are connected in star connection why?..

Answer / manish kumar

in a star connection, phase voltage Vph = VL/ (3)^1/2.
1--Since the induced emf in the primary winding of an alternator is directly proportional to the number of turns, a star connected alternator will require less number of turns than a delta connected alternator for the same voltage.

2-- it also requires less insulation bcz its phase is less.

3-- it also help to reduce third harmonic ...

Answer / sudheer

induce emf is proportional to turns so for same line voltage no of turns required is less hence insulation required is less and for protectio purpose we require ground so ground provided in case of star only

Answer / binod pradhan

2-in star connection the phase voltage is low than the line voltage,so it required less no of turn. 3-low insulation required as phase voltage is low. 4-1 neutral point available in star connection. 5-unbalance current flowing in the three phase circuit, neutral is having a vital role.It will take the unbalance current through to the ground.

Answer / mahfooz alam

In Star connection the Line Voltage is 1.732 times the phase voltage. As a result of which we can have the higher voltage in star connection when compared to the delta connection. Thus, to have more output voltage Star connected Alternator are used.
