Two 3 phase generators operating in parallel with different phase and line voltages will be connected in
- Parallel configuration.
- star configuration.
- delta configuration.
Explanation
When generators with differing phase and line voltages must be paralleled, the star (Y) connection is used because it provides a common neutral that ties the machines to a shared reference point, allowing their outputs to be matched and balanced. The neutral connection is essential for stable parallel operation, which a delta arrangement cannot provide.

Star configuration gives different Line/Phase Voltages but common current
