How do you balance the unbalanced load in 3 phase?
If the load is connected in wye (star) and it has a neutral, then the vectorial-difference of the phase currents will flow in the neutral and there will be no problem. On the other hand, if there is no neutral, then an unbalanced load would cause unbalanced phase voltages.
Is there a current in star connected transformer in neutral side?
For a perfectly balanced load, with identical loads connected between each line conductor and the neutral conductor, there should be no neutral current. This is because the vector sum of three identical current, displaced by 120o, is zero.However, for an unbalanced load, there will always be a neutral current because the vector sum of the currents will not cancell.
In 3 phase wiring why neutral is thinner than that of phase?
As normally load distribution is done equally in all three phases, almost balanced current is drawn by load and current flow though neutral is very small when compared to the phase and hence difference in cable size is observed
Why is three-phase alternating current used for distribution systems?
Simply because it is cheaper. (You dont need the extra wire) However you can only use a 3 wire system if the load is a balanced load. If the load is not balanced you need the fourth wire (neutral/return) to take the out of balance current.
Condition of three phase in which there is no need of neutral?
A delta-connected system is described as being a three-phase, three-wire, system, and doesn't have a neutral. But a balanced star (wye) connected load (e.g. a three-phase induction motor) doesn't actually require a neutral.
Is the line is necessary for the balanced star- connected load?
I think you probably mean is a neutral conductor necessary for a balanced star-connected load? If this is what you mean, then the answer is no, it isn't, as the phasor-sum of the phase currents will equal zero. Often, though, it is difficult to achieve a balanced load, so a neutral is then necessary, as it is needed to provide a return path for the unbalanced current -without this neutral, the phase voltages would change and become unbalanced.
How do you resolve amperage on the neutral line?
By having a balanced load
How much will neutral current be in a 3phase 4-wire y system with a balanced load?
Balanced load means no unbalanced currents, so the neutral current should be near zero.
How do you find neutral current in star connected circuit?
if it is balanced then neutral current is zero (!,e iR=iY=iB).AnswerFor both a balanced and an unbalanced load, the neutral current will be the phasor sum of the line currents.

What will happen if neutral breaks?
If a neutral breaks the load will cease to operate.
If your breaker box is balanced will your electric bill be less?
No. In North America you are billed on the consumption of watts (amps x volts). Both legs L1 and L2 are monitored inside the watt-meter that is situated on the side of your house and are independent from the unbalanced or balanced load on the neutral.
What happens if neutral of three phase four wire system is break?
For a balanced three-phase load, the neutral current is zero, so the loss of the neutral would have no effect.However, for an unbalanced load, the 'difference' between the line currents results in a neutral current.So, for an unbalanced load, if no neutral current can flow, then the load's neutral point will no longer remain symmetrical, and the line voltages will become unbalanced. If the unbalance is severe, then individual loads may be subject to over-voltages or under-voltages.
