Definitions:

Wye

A configuration for electrical circuits or networks where three branches converge at a single point, often used in three-phase systems.

Turns Ratio

Turns ratio refers to the ratio of the number of windings in the primary coil to the number of windings in the secondary coil of a transformer, affecting voltage level.

Primary Voltage

The voltage at the primary winding of a transformer, which is transformed to a different voltage level at the transformer's secondary winding.

Secondary Voltage

The output voltage produced by the secondary winding of a transformer, which can be step-up or step-down relative to the primary voltage based on the turns ratio of the transformer.
