In a three-phase load, three different impedances are connected together in a star or delta fashion.

The delta in a three-phase system is formed by connecting one end of the winding to the starting end of other winding and the connections are continued to form a closed loop.

The star in the three-phase system is formed by connecting one end of all three impedances are connected together.

Important Points:

In a star-connected three-phase system,

VL = √3 × Vph

And IL = Iph

In a delta connected three-phase system,

VL = Vph

IL = √3 × Iph

Where,

VL is line voltage

Vph is phase voltage

IL is line current

Iph is the phase current
