Star/Wye electrical connection math symbol
I am writing lots of mathematics within electrical engineering, where I often need to specify which of two connection types I am talking about.
One is called Delta, specified with a triangle $Delta$. The other is called Wye/Star, a three legged star with $120degree$ separated legs, like in the picture below.
What I wish for is a way to inline with the mathematics write $wye$ and get the depicted symbol the same way I get $Delta$, but I am not very experienced with defining new symbols...

I made one leg a bit thicker, in the manner of Delta.
Works across math styles.
documentclass{article}
usepackage{rotating,stackengine,scalerel}
newcommandwye{scalerel*{stackengine{-1pt}{%
rotatebox[origin=c]{30}{rule{10pt}{.9pt}}kern-1pt%
rotatebox[origin=c]{-30}{rule{10pt}{1.3pt}}}{%
rule{.9pt}{10pt}}{O}{c}{F}{F}{S}}{Delta}}
begin{document}
$Deltawye
scriptstyleDeltawye
scriptscriptstyleDeltawye$
end{document}
Merely changing the instances of {30} and {-30} to {40} and {-40} will change the aspect, while scalerel will take care of the scaling automatically:
