Why should we use Star-Delta connection in step down power
transformers?

Answer / harishchandra
in Y the vL=1.73*vp
in delta vl=vp and current IL=1.73*ip
also for distribution required 230 n 433v so neutral is
required so we used y - delta conec.

Answer / hussain
Actually we use Delta-Star connection for step down to get
neutral in the secondary. The question is wrong , should
read why we use delta-Start connection , not opposite.

Answer / guest
1:--- actually we used delta -star connection in power
distribution transformer to provide the returning path of
current,because connected load does not balanced so
returning current goes to transformer star point through
neutral wire which always earthed.
2;---In distribution load is being different type like
single phase three phase etc so we have required neutral for
single
phase load which is only possible in star connection.

Answer / pkv
actually delta star trnasformer used in step down
trnasformer to avoid earthfault give effect of over
current on hv side of the trnaformer

Answer / arindam
Delta is mainly used on low voltage side because its line voltage=phase voltage. if it is used on high voltage side due to high voltage in phase more insulation is required. But if it is star then its phase voltage = (1/√3)phase voltage. so if high voltage applied to line of star its phase value decrease by √3 times and comparetively less insulation is required. Hence star-delta is used for step down and delta-star is used for step up.

Answer / rafeek
question is wrong,
normally we use delta-star connection for step down
transformer to prevent earth faults.

Answer / paramesh
Because starting voltage of the star connection is less
compare 2 other connections..........

i want to estabilish an loss energy storage system,such that it can store electricity lost during the transmission of electricity in conductor,so that this system stores energy lost during transmission and supply it to street lights during night
Actually why the transformers are rated in KVA.?
how could we calculate the no of outgoings from a 800 watt distribution board
what is the working of air compressor.
can we make a electric generator,which can not use any type of fuel,air,solar,gas,thermal,coal,petrol,etc and able to produce electrical energy (or self electricity generating generator)
in ring main system we use the isolater b/w transfer bus and main bus if we r not use isolatar than wat will be the effect in our sys.

2 Answers Madhya Pradesh Electricity Board MPEB,
if step down transformer step down the voltage,will current will also be proportional step up. If yes then how transformer handle such a large current?
what is the grounding Calculation formula? spouse i want to provide grounding to 3phase 18kw motor or i want to provide ground to 3phase 10kva dry type transformere or you give me any exemple...... Thanks.
