On some motors, all six ends are brought out (2 ends per winding). On those motors, it is possible to connect the three windings such that they form a triangle shape (this is the DELTA configuration), or a radial shape that sort of looks like the letter Y (the WYE or STAR configuration).

It is a scheme shared by a partnership of countries and organisations that are committed to mitigate climate change by reducing carbon emissions. A revolutionary scheme backed by the World Bank to pay poor countries billions of dollars a year to stop felling trees is the best way to stop logging and save the planet from climate change, according to wealthy countries and conservationists, yet documents seen by the Observer show the plan is actually leading to corruption and possibly more logging. Under Redd, 37 mainly tropical countries have requested more than $14bn in grants from rich countries by 2015 in return for cutting their carbon emissions from logging and other forestry activities.
