    The power ratio between Star to Delta is 1:3

    Explanation:

     

    Let?s suppose Vs be the supply voltage per phase.

    So the line voltage of the supply will be ?3Vs.

    Now assume any type of load; for simplicity I?m assuming it a only resistive load.

    And let it be ?R? per phase.

     

    For Delta connected load:

     

    Calculation for per phase power; PD= I2R

     

    Where I ? load current (per phase)

    And,

    I = ?3Vs/R       {as line voltage of the supply is directly applied to the phase of the delta load}

    So,

                Pd = (?3Vs/R )2R = 3Vs2/R  watts per phase.

    For 3 phases:

                P3D = 3Pd = 3*3Vs2/R = 9Vs2/R watts.

     

    Now for Star connected load:

     

    PS = I2R = (Vs/R)2R = Vs2/R watts

    For 3 phases: P3S = 3PS = 3 Vs2/R watts

     

    Conclusion:

    P3S / P3D  =  3Vs2/R / 9Vs2/R = 1/3

    It may be better concluded by drowing figures. If any variations, can connect to me through karan.sorout@gmail.com

    Well first you assumed voltage per phase as Vs and Line voltage as sqrt(3) x Vs: Which is for star connection. Then, you assumed the same thing for Delta Connection(where line and phase voltages are t...

    Power is Same. Whether it is star to Delta conversion or Delta to star conversion. Power is 1:1
