Stepdown transformer(HT/LT) generaly used for distribution purpose so secondary side star is necessary and to increase voltage ratio primary side delta is necessary ie. in delta we get line voltage which is 1.732 time of phase voltage (star voltag) therefore less turn required in secondary side.

Answer / siddhartha agrawal

Generally HT side there is only three phase available while
LT side we require neutral. So we connect LT side Star
connection to use phase to phase voltage (415 volt) and
phase to neutral voltage- single phase load (240-220volt).

Generally HT side there is only 3 wire to reduce the cost of
transmission wire cost.

Answer / ap

we use delta connection in primary side (HT side) because if any fault current occurs it circulates in primary only and is not transmitted to secondary. Thus secondary is free of fault current.

Answer / bikki

In HT transformer, the primary side has less voltage stress since it is a step up transformer. But the voltage on secondary side will be high and hence the stress will be also high.As a result, the winding insulation requirement will cost a lot if the connection was Delta on secondary side;because in delta phase voltage=line voltage.
But if the secondary connection is star, then phase voltage will be Line voltage/(sqrt(3) which means the winding has to withstand less voltage stress and hence less insulation is required.Hence lesser cost.

what is the different betweem earthing and neutral?

I have a question, I visit 01 site and face a problem, there is 2.5 ton Air Con working, when air con compressor is running at that time rectifier voltages are increasing upto 290-295 v and rectifier is giving main high alarm (rectifier is APC single phase, before starting compressor rectifier voltages was 230v. when air con is going off rectifier voltages are decreasing smoothly at its actual voltages 230v. Load on Genset phases is this: Red-13.5 amp AC (Air Con load), Yellow-1.7 amp AC (BTS lights etc.) and Blew-4 amp AC (telecom system load), Genset phase to phase and neutral to phase voltages are also ok. These are 10 sites having same system and same rectifier APC brand at every site 02 genset are working but the problem is same at all these 10 sites. What will be the reason behind???
