    This document describes how to calculate equivalent resistance in both delta and wye resistor circuits. It involves connecting the circuits to a power supply, measuring the current and voltage to calculate equivalent resistance. The equivalent resistances calculated from these measurements are then compared to theoretical calculations based on the individual resistor values to check for agreement. The process is repeated for both a delta and wye resistor circuit configuration.

    Delta – Wye Transformation

    1. (a) Connect the circuit shown


    (b) Turn on the power supply and slowly advance the variable output control knob
    until the built-in power supply voltmeter indicates 90 Vdc (or closest).
    (c) Measure and record the current and voltage.
    Vt = ___________ Vdc
    It = ___________ Adc
    Return the voltage to zero and turn off the power supply
    (d) Calculate the equivalent resistance of the circuit using the values obtained in c).
    Equivalent Resistance, Req = Vt/It = _________Ω
    (e) Disconnect the power supply and measure the total resistance of the circuit using your DMM.
    Ohmmeter Reading, Req = __________Ω
    (f) Using the indicated values of the resistors in the circuit, calculate the equivalent resistance.
