It is the colour coding of the wires from left to right when connections are made to terminals. In Canada it is Red, Black, Blue. By using this standard every connection in the poly-phase (3 phase) system will be the same. Once a motor is phase rotated and marked with the appropriate colours it can be reconnected any where else in the system and run with the correct rotation.

In a modern industrial plant the most likely polyphase power system in use is a A. one-phase system. C. three-phase system. B. two-phase system. D. four-phase system.?
A "three-phase system" is a polyphase system having three phases. The term "polyphase system" just means a system having multiple phases. If it is used by itself, "a polyphase system" doesn't mean "a three-phase system".
What is the most popular polyphase circuit?
Three Phase
What are the applications of 2 phase systems?
A two-phase system is an archaic 'polyphase' system, in which two phase voltages are displaced by 90 electrical degrees, enabling the use of self-starting induction motors. It's unlikely you'll come across a two-phase system these days.
What are the advantages of three phase to two phase electric power distribution systems?
Polyphase systems are used because they allow the efficient transmission of electric power, in terms of power transmitted per kilogram of wire. Polyphase systems with more than three phases are very uncommon.
Does the power factor in three phase system depend on the phase sequence?
No. It depends on the inductive and capacitive reactance of the load.
What is the symbol of phase sequence?
The symbol of phase sequence is RYB
What is phase sequence in 3-phase system?
The potential of each line of a three-phase system is displaced from the other two by 120 electrical degrees. The sequence, or order, in which the potential of each line reaches its peak value is termed the 'phase sequence' of the system. The 'normal' phase sequence of an alternator is considered to be the 'positive phase sequence', is arbitrarily assigned colours (e.g. red-yellow-blue, etc.), numbers (e.g. 1-2-3), letters (e.g. A-B-C), or a combination of letters or numbers (e.g. L1-L2-L3). If that alternator should run backwards, or (far more likely) if its terminals were disconnected and then incorrectly reconnected, the the sequence would be A-C-B (etc.), which would be considered to be 'negative phase sequence'. Before connecting two generators (or two complete transmission/distribution systems) together, their phase sequence must be confirmed as being the same. Reconnecting a three-phase motor with the wrong phase sequence would result in it running in the reverse direction and, possibly, damaging its load.
What is the difference between positive sequence and negative sequence arrangement?
The order in which the voltage of the coil reaches to the maximum value is called the Phase Sequence.POSITIVE PHASE SEQUENCE: If the coil is rotated in anticlockwise direction, the phase sequence will be Positive Phase Sequence, i.e., R-Y-B or A-B-C.NEGATIVE PHASE SEQUENCE: If the coil is rotated in clockwise direction, the phase sequence is called Negative Phase Sequence, i.e., R-B-Y or A-C-B.NOTE: Phase Sequence is of great importance in parallel operation of three phase transformers and alternators.
What is the advantage of polyphase system over single-phase system?
1) less copper cross section to conduct current2) constant power to load3) constant rotating magnetic field4) Ideal for Direction Reversing5) Current is not zero at any constant..
What is the effect of Phase sequence change in 3 phase supply?
It is important to keep the phase sequence the same throughout the system but it is more important to connect the transformers up with the right polarities. Never close a delta connection without a test fuse wire first, for correct transformer polarity connection.

What the use of phase sequence indicator?
In indicator there is a led light source. It gives us the presence of the current source by indicate its light. If the phase of the indicator is not equal to the supply voltage then it can not give us the presence of current source by its led light off. If the phase of indicator is equal with the mane supply phase then its remaining bright and continuous gives us the indication of current source.ANSWER'Phase sequence' is the order, or sequence, in which each of the line voltages of a three-phase system reach their peak values. If 'normal' phase sequence is considered to be A-B-C (or R-S-T, etc.), then 'reverse phase sequence' would be A-C-B. Phase sequence is very important if, for example, you want to ensure that your three-phase motors rotate in the correct direction. So, after disconnecting them for maintenance, you can confirm the phase sequence of your incoming conductors by using a phase-sequence meter, before you reconnect that motor.
