Why does one line of 3 phase 480v show 0 volts and the other 2 have 480?

My first thought is this is probably a corner grounded delta system, but I'm confused by your voltages. If this was a 460v (L-L voltage) ungrounded or corner grounded system, the phase to ground voltage is meaningless, but the phase to phas voltage will be 460v all around the delta. If you have a 460v system and you're only seeing 230v, there's something wrong.

What should be the primisable voltage between neutral and earth in a three phase system?
It is the line to line voltage divided by 1.73. 600V / 1.73 = 347V 480V / 1.73 = 277V 380V / 1.73 = 220V 208V / 1.73 = 120V
How many amps can 30 kva transformer 575 volts to 480 volts gives?
for three phase the calculation is 30,000 = 1.73*V*I - simple as that. For single Phase the calculation is 30,000 = V*I - simple as that It is important to note the voltage in the first line is Line to Line (typically how it is specified in three phase power systems), and the second line it is Line to neutral. A 30KVA transformer is the same as 30,000VA to find out the Amps you need to divide the voltage if the transformer is single phase for example: 30,000VA / 480V = 62.5 Amps The calculation for a 3 phase transformer is the VA / voltage / 1.73 for example: 30,000VA /480V / 1.73 = 36.12 Amps
How do you calculate 440v phase?
Let's get the terminology correct. A 'phase voltage' is measured across a phase, whereas a line voltage is measured between two lines. So there is no such thing as a 'phase to phase' voltage -it's a line to line voltage (hence the term 'line voltage').
What are the volts per phase on a 240 volt system?
By 'volts per phase', I assume you mean 'phase voltage' as opposed to 'line voltage'?It depends on the country in which you live. In North America, for example, the secondary output of a three-phase distribution transformer typically delta connected, 240 V corresponds to both the phase and line voltages.In other countries, where a three-phase distribution transformer's secondary is wye connected, 240 V is typically a phase voltage and 415 V is a line voltage.
What is the voltage to ground of 13800 volts line to line?
On a three phase system with a line to line voltage of 13800, a wye connection will give you a voltage of, 13800/1.73 = 7977 volts to ground.
What does 277 vac mean?
That's 277 volts of alternating current. This is typically one phase of a 480v 3 phase system. Don't worry that 3 x 277 adds up to more than 480v. A 277v line is typically one phase of a 480v 3 phase system.
How do you convert 380v 3 phase to 220v 3 phase?
Mathematically, just divide 480 by the square root of three. Electrically, 480V refers to the line-to-line value of a three phase system. For example, measure the voltage across A-phase and B-phase and you'll get 480V. 277V is the line-to-neutral value. Measure the voltage across A-phase and the neutral conductor and you should get 277V.

Why 380 volts line to line if connect line to neutral is 220 volts?
A voltage of 380 volts is a three phase voltage. On a three phase four wire system, each phase leg to neutral (grounded) will give you 220 volts. This voltage is obtained by dividing the phase voltage by 1.73, as the phase legs are generated 120 degrees from each other. Square root of three is 1.73 divided into 380 equals 220 volts.
How is line voltage computed in a wye three phase cofiguration?
Line voltage equals phase voltage multiplied by the square root of three. a.k.a. E l = E p X 1.73 In a 3 phase 480v system the phase voltage is 277v. Therefore E l = 277 X 1.73 = 480v
A 100 amp 3 phase power supply is good for how many total amps?
100 amps to a 3 phase load. Power = 100A x Voltage x 1.73 ((line to line voltage)(1.73=SQRT(3)). 173 amps to each of 3 single phase (line to line) loads. Power = 173A x Voltage (line to line voltage). or... 100 amps to each of 3 single phase (line to neutral) load. Power = 300A x Voltage (line to neutral voltage). Example: - 3 phase, 480v, 100amp to a 3 phase heater. 100A x 480V x 1.73 = 83040 watts. - 3 single phase 480v (L-L voltage) heaters, 100amp. 173A x 480V = 83040 watts. - 3 single phase 277v (L-N voltage) heaters, 100amp. 300A x 277V = 83100 watts.

In a 3 phase 480 panel what voltage should you get phase to phase?
The voltage you are referring to is a 'line-to-line' voltage ('line voltage'), as there is no such thing as a 'phase-to-phase' voltage.480 volts. In real life, the voltage will vary slightly by up to 3% (14 V) on a properly sized circuit. Line to neutral will measure 277 volts, plus or minus 3%.
