The formula to use is, phase voltage /1.73 = phase to neutral (ground) voltage.CommentThere is no such thing as a 'phase to phase', or 'phase to neutral' voltage. The correct terms are 'line to line' and 'line to neutral'. So the above answer should read: line voltage/1.73= line to neutral voltage = phase voltage.
The current is the same in the three live wires. The voltage can be described as the line voltage (phase to neutral) or the phase voltage (phase to phase) which is larger by a factor of sqrt(3). So a line voltage of 230 v corresponds to a phase voltage of 400 v.
Phase to phase voltage is 1.732 (the square root of 3) times the phase to star point (neutral) line voltage.e.g. if the line voltage is 220Vphase voltage = 1.732x220 = 380V (approx)Additional AnswerYou might also like to know that the line voltage leads the phase voltage by 30 electrical degrees. And, incidentally, the correct expressions are 'line-to-line' not 'phase-to-phase', and 'line-to-neutral' not 'phase-to-neutral' (think about it, a line voltage is measured from the junctions between adjacent phases, so they cannot be 'phase to phase'!)
Yes,when the neutral potential is at ground potential i.e., 0v.
Only one neutral conductor is typically in a 3 phase panel.

An 11,000 volt three-phase supply has a voltage of 6351 from live to neutral, when there is a neutral wire.

It is the same as phase to neutral. As the neutral is earthed at the electricity suppliers transformer.

A single-phase supply is obtained between any two line conductors or between a line and neutral conductor of a three-phase supply. To obtain a three-phase supply from a single-phase source is far more difficult, and requires additional equipment.
From line-to-line (any two of the three leads) voltage or 'line voltage', the voltage is 208 V. The line-to-neutral (one of the three leads and the neutral conductor), or 'phase voltage', is 120 V.
The current is the same in the three live wires. The voltage can be described as the line voltage (phase to neutral) or the phase voltage (phase to phase) which is larger by a factor of sqrt(3). So a line voltage of 230 v corresponds to a phase voltage of 400 v.
The line-to-neutral (not 'phase-to-neutral'!) voltage on a 400V 3-Phase wye-connected system is 230V.Line voltage is the voltage as measured between any two (2) line conductors (hence its name!). Line voltage is often referred to as the 'line-to-line voltage'.Phase voltage is the voltage as measured between any single line and neutral. Phase voltage is often referred to as a 'line-to-neutral' voltage."400V" on a 400V 3-Phase wye-connected power supply indicates its line voltage. Line voltage in a wye system is always the phase voltage multiplied by the square-root of "3" (1.732) and reflects the vector sum of two individual phase voltages present in a three phase system.Thusly, if the line voltage is "400V", then the phase voltage is 400V divided by the square-root of "3" (1.732), which is 230V.Examples of this for North American power systems are 120/208V, 277/480V and 347/600V. Examples for other areas of the world are 220/380V, 230/400V and 240/415V.
