Star (Wye) and Delta-Connected Loads | What Is 3-Phase Power?, Part 2

From the series: What Is 3-Phase Power?

In 3-phase electrical power systems, there are two fundamental connection options for load components: Star (Wye)-Connected Loads and Delta-Connected Loads. Understanding how these connection options affect voltage and current is fundamentally important for AC electrical system analysis and operation.

You will learn:

  1. How Star (Wye) and Delta Connection are made in a 3-phase system
  2. The definition of line measurements and phase measurements for both voltage and current
  3. The vector relationship between line and phase measurements for both Star- and Delta-Connected Loads
  4. Some practical considerations for a certain connection choice
