The three-phase connection in which one end of each of the windings are connected together is called a(n) _____ connection.

A) delta
B) wye
C) open delta
D) open wye

Three-Phase Connection

A method of electrical connection that uses three alternating currents of the same frequency and amplitude but with phases offset by one third of a cycle.

Windings

Coils of wire around a core in electrical devices, used to create magnetic fields or induce currents.

Wye

A configuration for connecting three-phase power where the phases are connected at a common point, forming a Y shape.

  • Comprehend the fundamental setups (delta and wye) in three-phase systems and their properties.

Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
The wye (or star) connection in three-phase systems is characterized by one end of each of the three windings being connected together at a common point, forming a Y shape. This common point is often grounded and serves as the neutral point for the system.
