This may be a silly question, but I could do with confirmation. I have a 2400V delta 3-phase distrbution system that is being converted to 4160Y. There is a two bushing single-phase transformer 2400 delta primary to 120/240 secondary. This transformer should work being connected line-to-nuetral on the 4160Y/2400V system? One of the primary bushings is being reconnected from line to nuetral as part of the conversion. The reason I ask is that all of the other transformers are marked 4160/2400 on the nameplate and this one is just 2400 delta.

Connected line to neutral on a solidly grounded system, the transformer will only see 2400V and should work just fine.
