Star connected motors have a central connected point, called a short circuit point or star point and each winding receives phase voltages (230volts), star connected motor only run at one third of the motor rated torque and power, whereas delta connected motors have no connected point and each winding receives line voltages (415volts) and operates at full torque and power.
You also need to check the name of the motor, ascertain the operating voltage of the motor, some are 415v operating voltage and we can find there are 220v 3 phase operating voltage motors, Japanese standard. The input voltage to be considered, your input voltage, if it is 415v and motor operating voltage is also 415v, then you can connect either star or delta of the motor terminals. But, the motor operating voltage is 220v 3 phase, you can only connect on star if input voltage available is 415v 3 phase, but available input 220v 3 phase voltage motor operating voltage 220v 3 phase, delta connection is fine.

And delta conection motar warking in satar conection.. Yes ya.no

I have a STAR voltage of 460V, but what is the DELTA voltage and how do I work out the calculation ?
Is there a formula for converting a STAR voltage to DELTA and a DELTA voltage to STAR.

If the power system voltage (line-to-line) is 380 V, then the motor needs to be connected in a star (wye) during the starting period and remain connected as a star for continuous running.
If the system voltage is 220 V, there is a choice: (1) for reduced voltage starting, the motor is connected as a star initially during the start period and then transitions to a delta connection for continuous running; or (2) for full voltage starting, the motor is connected as a delta during the starting period and remains connected as a delta for continuous running. Choice (1) requires a star-delta motor starter contactor.

Lots of these webpages do a good job explaining the process but unless you have seen the application or real world Motor/Vfd's/Plc/process control its very hard to understand.
I'm an electrical engineer and master a electrician.
