SUMMARY
The discussion revolves around solving a Wye-Delta transformer problem in a three-phase system. The participant initially struggled with matching their answers to the textbook solutions, particularly in part a) where they achieved approximate correctness by using a three-phase four-wire configuration. They received advice to focus on resistances rather than currents for calculations. Ultimately, it was confirmed that the textbook's solution for part b) was incorrect, as stated by the participant's professor.
