D Y Conversion

The document discusses how equivalent circuit equations are derived. The equations were derived using the fundamental rule that equivalent circuits must behave the same no matter what external circuit is connected. Specific circuits were connected to the equivalents and the equivalent resistances were solved for using series and parallel rules under different conditions. This allowed equations to be derived relating the resistances of the original circuit to the equivalent resistances.

Deriving the Equations

While these equivalent circuits are useful, perhaps the most important insight
is gained from asking where these useful equations come from. How were these
equations derived?
The answer is that they were derived using the fundamental rule for
equivalent circuits. These two equivalent circuits have to behave the same way
no matter what circuit is connected to them. So, we can choose specific circuits to
connect to the equivalents. We make the derivation by solving for equivalent
resistances, using our series and parallel rules, under different, specific conditions.
