Default Anyone have the diagram of how to wire a transformer to a bridge rectifier...

or vise versa?

I have this three phase rectifier, theres three inputs and a + and - for the DC, I dont know where to loop the transformer through in the rectifier. Like how to ground it, do I just bring the rectifier output back to the opposite of the output on the transformer?

Is it a Y or delta transformer? ie: Do you have 3 or 4 wires coming out the transformer?

Technically I have 5, 2 winds have two point, and one has one. I would like to use the Y configuration of it though as it will work much better.

Im only using 1 phase for this circuit though. I just happened to have a 3 phase rectifier sitting around.

Then just connect any two of the AC terminals of the rectifier to one of the windings on the transformer. The remaining AC terminal can be left unconnected. Your DC output is on the + & - terminals.
