A 3 phase generator whose phase and line voltages are different is connected in

  • Parallel configuration.
  • star configuration.
  • delta configuration.

Explanation from PART66Online

A machine whose phase and line voltages are different must be star connected: in star the line voltage is root three (1.732) times the phase voltage, whereas a delta winding sits directly across two lines, so its line and phase voltages are equal. Parallel describes how machines are tied to a busbar, not how the three windings inside one machine are joined.

Star configuration gives different Line/Phase Voltages but common current
