Star-mesh transform
open-in-new
Special cases
When
N
is:
For a single dangling resistor, the transform eliminates the resistor.
For two resistors, the "star" is simply the two resistors in series, and the transform yields a single equivalent resistor.
The special case of three resistors is better known as the
Y-Δ transform
. Since the result also has three resistors, this transform has an inverse Δ-Y transform.
