Yes up to a certain amperage. In my area you can go 3 phase up to 200 amps. Any services larger that that, the power authority requires current Transformers. For higher voltages and current, current transformers and potential transformers are required. These are installed in what is called a metering cabinet.
What else can I help you with?
How do you check whether supply is coming or not in 3 phase?
Voltage is checked with a volt meter. It doesn't have to be 3 phase. It is used to test any potentials across phase to phase, line to neutral, line to ground or across resistances. Be careful when testing live voltages as a misplace of the meter probes could cause an arc flash that could give you three degree burns to any exposed skin.
How do you meter a 208v load meter only 1 phase add the two?
The voltage 208 is a three phase voltage. Single phase is classed as the voltage obtained from any two legs of the three phase voltage system. The voltage between L1 to L2 = 208. L2 to L3 = 208 volts and L3 to L1 = 208 volts. To measure the load of the 208 volt device just clamp an amp meter around one of the legs coming from the load. This will give you the amperage that the load draws.
How do you check the AC voltage phases by phase?
By connecting a voltmeter across pairs of line (not 'phase'!!!) conductors, and between any line conductor and neutral.
Do you need a starter for a 3 phase 5 horse motor?
YES. USE THE NORMAL DIRECT-ON-LINE OR ACROSS-THE-LINE STARTER.
What is the phase when the chromosomes line up across the middle of the cell?
The phase when chromosomes line up across the middle of the cell is called metaphase. During this stage of mitosis, the chromosomes become attached to the spindle fibers at the centromeres and align along the equatorial plane of the cell.
Why is phase voltage not twice line voltage?
Line to line voltage is not the same as line to neutral voltage because line voltages are 120 degrees apart. They are related by: Line to neutral voltage * tan (120 degrees) = Line to neutral voltage * 1.73.Additional CommentFor delta-connected systems, the line voltage is the same as the phase voltage.For wye-connected systems, the line voltage is larger than the phase voltage by a factor of 1.732. The reason for this is as follows:Because any two phase voltages are displaced from each other by 120o, they must be added vectorially, not algebraically, to find the line voltage. As the above answer points out, this means that the relationship between the two is the square-root of 3, or 1.732.
What is the kv phase to phase for 13.8kv?
There is no such thing as a 'phase-to-phase' voltage; the correct term is 'line-to-line' voltage. Whenever you mention a value of voltage for a three phase system, it is considered to be a line-to-line voltage unless it is stated clearly that this is phase voltage (line to neutral) voltage.(The reason that there is no such thing as a 'phase-to-phase' voltage is because phases exist between, or 'across', line conductors or between a line conductor and a neutral.) That is a world wide practice for electrical power engineers.
Is line voltage or phase voltage mentioned on transformer nameplate?
It depends how they are connected. If they are connected between line conductors then they are measuring line voltages. If they are connected across phases then they are measuring phase voltages.
Why does an LED glow even when its switched off?
- Even when a LED lamp is completely disconnected on one side, it can still glow. If the switch is situated between the neutral line of mains and the lamp, there will be a 60Hz voltage difference between the conductive parts of your fixture and the surroundings. These surroundings have a potential (earth) close to the neutral line of your mains supply. There is a small parasitic capacitance between the wires of the lamp and the surroundings. This will conduct a small current. This current will not flow through the return line of your mains, and is not detected by a Watt-O-meter. A LED lamps needs very little current to start emmiting light , a current of 100uA can already be visible in dark conditions. Possible solutions: - Set the switch in the other Phase of mains. - Use a double pole switch and disconnect both phase and neutral. - Attach a small load parallel over the LED lamp. A 100K resistor might do the Job . Warning: Do not modify your electric wiring unless you are both skilled and qualified for this !
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.
Which has the higher voltage - phase or line?
In a three phase three wire system, the phase voltage and line voltage are one in the same just different terminology. In a three phase four wire system, the line voltage is higher than the line to ground voltage. Line to ground is, line voltage divided by 1.73 (square root of three). For example 480volts /1.73 = 277 volts.AnswerIt depends upon the configuration of the three-phase system. For a delta (or mesh) connected 3-wire supply system, the line voltage is exactly the same as the phase voltage. For a wye (or star) connected 4-wire supply system, the line voltage is 1.732 (the square-root of 3) times the phase voltage.By way of explanation, for both wye and delta systems, phase voltages are measured across the windings of a three-phase transformer or across individual loads, whereas line voltages are measured between lines. For a wye-connected system, phase voltages can also be measured between any line and neutral.
Write dowen the relationshipbetween line and phase the 3phase system if voltageline and currentline are line value voltage power and current power are phase value?
