Depends on country.
The conductors between a three-phase supply and a three-phase load are called line conductors not phase conductors, and the voltage measured between them are line voltages, not phase voltages. In the case of a delta supply, the line voltages are numerically equal to phase voltages, but the name remains the same!I have to admit that many people call line conductors 'phase conductors', but many people also say 'irregardless' -that doesn't make it a real word!!
for 415V phase to earth min clearance is 25mm pallavCommentYou cannot have a voltage between a 'phase' and earth. You should be asking the clearance between a 'line' and earth.
600 volts between any two wires. The phase has nothing to do with voltages, only current relationship.
A single-phase cable will have a line and a neutral conductor and, possibly, but not necessarily, an earth (ground) conductor. A high-voltage three-phase cable will have three line conductors. A low-voltage three-phase cable is likely to have three line conductors and a neutral conductor.
The voltage and current sine waves cross the zero line at the same time and going in the same direction. The phase angle is 0°. They are said to be in-phase.
There is no such thing as a 'phase-to-phase' voltage. The correct term is 'line-to-line' voltage or 'line voltage'. For a star (wye) connected system, the line voltage is 1.732 times the phase voltage, where the phase voltage is measured between any line and neutral.
It depends on the voltage and whether it is a single- or three-phase load.
For a three-phase, three-wire, system there are three conductors called 'line conductors', and there is a voltage between any pair of line conductors, so there are three voltages.For a three-phase, four-wire, system there are four conductors: three 'line conductors' and a 'neutral' conductor. So there are three line voltages (voltages between lines) and three phase voltages (voltages between any line conductor and a neutral conductor).
that would depend on the voltage depends on the area of the world that you live in. every country has different transmission voltages. in India we have single phase transmission voltage of 220V, where as in the USA it is 110V
It depends on the voltage and whether it is a single- or three-phase load.
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.
phase - hotneutral - returnground, earth - safety groundCommentThe correct term is 'line', not 'phase'. For example, after incorrectly using the term, 'phase', for many years, the latest edition of IET Wiring Regulations (BS7671) now uses the correct term, 'line', to describe the energised ('hot') conductor. Despite this, the terms are widely misused in the field. Unless used in this way, the resulting terms, 'line voltage (and current)' and 'phase voltage (and current), are meaningless.The three 'hot' wires that interconnect the supply and the load are termed 'lines' (which is why voltages measured between them are called 'line voltages' and the currents passing through them are called 'line currents'). The term, 'phase', describes the connection made between any line conductor and the neutral conductor (in the case of a four-wire system), or betweenany pair of line conductors (in the case of a three-wire system). To put it another way, a 'line' describes an individualconductor or terminal, whereas a 'phase' describes whatever is connected between pairs of conductors or terminals.
