What else can I help you with?
In a modern industrial plant the most likely polyphase power system in use is a A. one-phase system. C. three-phase system. B. two-phase system. D. four-phase system.?
A "three-phase system" is a polyphase system having three phases. The term "polyphase system" just means a system having multiple phases. If it is used by itself, "a polyphase system" doesn't mean "a three-phase system".
What does electrically balanced mean?
In a three phase system, if the current in all three phases are same, then it is a balanced system.
How does a two-phase system differ from a three phase system?
A two-phase system is archaic and you are unlikely to find it in use anywhere these days, so it is mainly of historical interest. A two-phase, three-wire system, consists of two phase voltages, displaced from each other by 90 electrical degrees, and a phase voltage which is 1.414 x phase voltage.A three-phase system consists of three phase voltages which are displaced from each other by 120 electrical degrees. In the case of a three-phase, three-wire, system, the line voltages are numerically equal to the phase voltages; in the case of a three-phase, four-wire, system, the line voltages are 1.732 x phase voltage.
What is a balanced three phase system?
A balanced three phase system is where the currents into the loads placed on all three phases of the service are reasonably close to each other in amperage.Another opinionA 'balanced' three-phase system describes a three-phase load in which each phase current is identical in both magnitude and phase. If the phase currents are only 'reasonably close', then the load is not balanced.
What is Electricity use difference between 3 phase and 1 phase?
A two-phase a.c. system is an archaic system, in which two phase voltages are generated 90 electrical degrees apart. It has nothing whatsoever to do with the US 'split phase' system that supplies North American homes. A two-phase system can be a four-wire system, or a three-wire system, and was useful because, unlike a single-phase system, it could create naturally rotating magnetic fields in induction motors. It has long been superseded by the three-phase system.
What is the purpose of a phase conductor?
There is no such thing as a 'phase conductor'; the correct term is 'line conductor'. In a single-phase system, the line conductor is the energised conductor; in a three-phase system, there are three (energised) line conductors.
What are the uses of three phase transformer over single phase and their losses?
For a given load, a three-phase system requires around 75% of the volume of copper required by a corresponding single-phase system and, so, is more economical. A three-phase supply also delivers power more or less continuously, whereas a single-phase supply delivers power in pulses. Finally, three-phase motors are self-starting and physically smaller than single-phase machines of the same power rating.
Why neutral cross section is half the phase in three phase cable while it has to carry current of summation of all phase..?
The current carried by the neutral of a three phase four wire system is the un balanced current. If the three phase system was completely balanced on all three phases there would be no need for a neutral, eg a three phase motor. This neutral current will be less that the phase current so a reduction in the neutral size is allowed.
In a three phase power system the phases of each voltages are normally separated by how many time degrees?
In a three phase power system, each phase is separated from the others by 120 degrees.
What is total voltage in 3phase supply when one of the phase becomes zero?
There is no 'total voltage' in a three-phase system. There are three line voltages and three phase voltages.
What cannot be considered a single phase?
A heterogeneous mixture, such as a salad with different vegetables, cannot be considered a single phase. It contains distinct regions with different compositions and properties, making it a multi-phase system.
What does short circit mean?
short circuite means phase to phase,three phase short, phase to earth, three phase to earth, this is all short circuite
