Thumb Rule :
Check Phase Winding Starting Phase and Connected ending Connection of That Phase winding to the one Phase after the
Phase where Phase winding Starting lead is connected. (Ex If U1 is connected to R Phase than Connect U2 to B Phase, If V1
is connected to Y Phase than V2 should be connected to R Phase)
