Whew, time to dust off the old textbook and double check the finer points. Assuming a balanced system:

The current in one leg of your star is equal to the current in two legs of your delta.
I(an) = I(ab) + I(ac)

The line to neutral voltage of your star is equal to the line to line voltage of your delta divided by the square root of three and phase shifted -30 degrees.
V(an) = V(ab)/sqrt(3) and phase shifted -30º

The impedance in your star is equal to the impedance in your delta divided by three.
Z(star) = Z(delta)/3

I apologize for the American standard notation. Do you call your phases R, S, and T instead of A, B, and C?
 
three phases L1, L2, L3 or red yellow blue in england havent found out what there called in AU yet

wow thats a lot to take in but thanks
