What are the benefits of connecting a transformer with a floating-Y or a grounded-Y? What applications are most common for each connection? What are the advantages or disadvantages of each type of connection? What is likely to happen if you don't have that return path to a grounded Y-connected...
What are the reasons, applications, advantages/disadvantages of connecting transformers (power or control) with an additive or subtractive polarity? Pole-mounted transformers (tank-type) that are less than 200KVA are usually connected with an additive polarity, why?

If right, any suggestions on how to reduce that issue? Different fuse link, etc?
Could someone recommend a good distance learning program by a well known accredited university in the US for a Master's Degree in Electrical Power? Classes are sent via web or DVD, etc. I've looked at Kansas State University's and the University of South Florida's? Have you heard any comments...
