why we haven't any connection other than Delta or star in 3phase
In 3-phase systems, Delta and Star are the only connections used because they provide a balanced load, which is necessary for efficient power distribution. These connections also allow for a high level of flexibility in terms of voltage and current control.
While Delta and Star are the most commonly used connections in 3-phase systems, there are other connections such as Zigzag, T-connection, and V-connection that can be used for specific purposes. However, these connections are not as efficient or flexible as Delta and Star.
Delta and Star connections in 3-phase systems have several advantages, including balanced load distribution, high flexibility, and ease of voltage and current control. They also have a lower number of current-carrying conductors compared to other connections, making them more cost-effective.
One disadvantage of using Delta or Star connections in 3-phase systems is that they require a neutral wire, which adds to the overall cost of the system. Additionally, these connections are not suitable for unbalanced loads and can cause voltage fluctuations if not properly balanced.
Yes, it is possible to convert between Delta and Star connections in 3-phase systems using transformers. This is often done to change the voltage level or to balance the load in the system. However, this conversion process can be complex and may require additional equipment.
