English term or phrase: stinger
...third line in a delta connection called "stinger"

French translation:stinger
Explanation:
Le contexte fait référence à la distribution d'électricité aux Etats-Unis où les transformateurs d'alimentation triphasé en triangle (delta) ont une mise au neutre spéciale d'où l’appellation "high leg delta". Cette configuration étant spécifique aux Etats-Unis, elle se retrouve telle quelle dans la littérature technique française: "triphasé high leg delta".
Pour être cohérent avec ce qui précède, je conserverais le mot "stinger" en français.

agree  Tony M: I think this is probably the best solution, esepcially as it is in quotes in the S/T originally. If any explanations are needed, they will probably have to be given as some kind of overall explanation, rather than in a fragmentary way for each term.

Explanation:
Even already graded, I should add my references from the other question "leg":

High-leg delta (also known as wild-leg, stinger leg, bastard leg, high-leg, orange-leg, or red-leg delta) is a type of electrical service connection for three-phase electric power installations. It is used when both single and three-phase power is desired to be supplied from a three phase transformer (or transformer bank). The three-phase power is connected in the delta configuration, and the center point of one phase is grounded.
:
High-leg delta service is supplied in one of two ways. One is by a transformer having four wires coming out of the secondary, the three phases, plus a neutral connected as a center-tap on one of the windings. … The voltages between the three phases are the same in magnitude, however the voltage magnitudes between a particular phase and the neutral vary. The phase-to-neutral voltage of two of the phases will be half of the phase-to-phase voltage. The remaining phase-to-neutral voltage will be √3/2 the phase-to-phase voltage. So if A-B, B-C and C-A are all 240 volts, then A-N and C-N will both be 120 volts, but B-N will be 208 volts

High Leg Delta
Si du triphasé est nécessaire, on utilise un autre type de transfo d'alimentation. Chaque utilisateur industriel a sa propre cabine de transformation et on utilise un branchement spécial, ici aussi pour permettre le branchements d'appareils 120V et 240V: “high leg delta”.
Le neutre, au lieu d'être connecté au centre de l'étoile est connecté entre deux phases via le transfo réducteur de tension. Une des phases a donc une tension plus élevée par rapport au neutre (high leg).
Le neutre est ici aussi mis à la masse dans la cabine de transformation.
:
Le triphasé "high leg delta" n'est d'application qu'à partir du dernier transfo (celui qui produit la tension pour les utilisateurs). C'est la mise au neutre spéciale qui fait d'un triphasé normal un triphasé high leg delta

REMARQUE : Sur une installation en sommet de triangle, le sommet du triangle du système d'alimentation doit être raccordé au fil orange du SPD.

agree  Tony M: It's only possible to use 'sommet' IF the high-leg Delta scheme has already been detailed, otherwise it would be highly confusing.
