Workers and linemen with contractors and energy provider Xcel Energy complete electrical work Jan. 18, 2022, on South Post at Fort McCoy, Wis. Fort McCoy and Xcel are in the process of changing from a Delta Electrical System to a Wye Electrical System, Fort McCoy officials said. Wye is a three-phase electrical system that uses a wire for each electrical leg and a separate neutral wire. Delta is also a three-phase, but uses one of the legs as the neutral so it only has three wires. Work will continue throughout the year. (U.S. Army Photo by Scott T.
