A star delta starter is the most commonly used method for the starting of a 3 phase induction motor. Generally we use star delta starters for three phase squirrel cage induction motors that are normally designed to work on a delta connection.

In this video we. In the diagram of power circuit of star delta starter u2 and v2 of 3 phase motor should be connect to 4 and 6 respectively instead of u2 and v2 are connected to 6 and 4 of delta contector km2. In star delta starting an induction motor is connected in through a star connection throughout the starting period. This is because these voltages are not in phase with each other.
In delta connection the phase voltage is equal to the line voltage hence it needs more number of turns which increase the total cost. In a star delta starter the initial connection of the stator windings is in the form of star. There is minor correction is require to change printed in boxes sequence of 3 phase wires from w2 v2 u2 to w2 u2 v2 to get delta connection properly. In delta connection motor receives highest power output. For star delta starter connection we have to give 440v in each of the coil and we know we have three coil so first identify coil by multimeter than give 440v to each of the coil. In star connection the phase voltage is low as 13 of the line voltage.
Therefore it needs a low number of turns hence saving in copper. Delta or mesh connection δ system is also known as three phase three wire system 3 phase 3 wire and it is the most preferred system for ac power transmission while for distribution star connection is generally used. In a three phase ac system at any instance the sum of the voltages in the three lines is zero. The former method of connecting the source voltages together is called a delta connection or δ connection because a δ is formed. Then once the motor reaches the required speed the motor is connected in through a delta connection. The major applications of motors with star delta starters are fans pumps centrifugal chillers in acs etc.
The 3 phase ac alternator or motor or transformer is connected in a 3 phase delta configuration when the respective ends of the individual single phase windings are connected in a closed loop series configuration and the common end connection of any two adjacent windings is brought out as one of the three 3 phase ac line conductors.
