Delta star connection generates 73.2% more than dd and yy connection because star side requires less insulation than delta side in normal condition..we can put extra insuation to generate high voltage.. So this connection used in step up the voltage..generally transmission is done in high voltages at generation side.

Where as the star delta connection generates 42.3% less voltage as compare dd and yy connection... That is genration on delta side is 1/1.73 times than line voltage at primary side...so this connection used in step down application
