Concept:

  • 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.
  • Line voltage in delta connection is equal to phase voltage. Therefore first statement is true.

 

In a delta-connected three-phase system:

\(V_{line} = V_{phase}\)

\(I_{line} =\sqrt 3 I_{phase}\)

Total Power \(= √3 × V_L × I_L×cosϕ\)

  • The figure given below shows the phasor diagram of Line and Phase voltages in ABC phase sequence:

  • For abc phase sequence, Line voltages of each phase will always lead the phase voltages by 30o. Therefore the second statement is false.
