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.
Phase to Phase voltageCorrection to the above answer:There is no such thing as a 'phase-to-phase' or 'phase-to-ground' voltage. The correct terms are 'line-to-line' (or 'line voltage') and 'line-to-ground' (or 'phase voltage'). Transmission-line voltages are line-to-line (or 'line') voltages.
There is phase to phase voltage in 3 phase system.AnswerYou don't get voltage 'phase-to-phase'; it's 'line-to-line'!
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.
Phase, if you are referring to line, as power line from pole.
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'!)
To match 2 phase line voltage it has to be the same 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.
First of all, there is no such thing as a 'phase-to-phase' voltage. The correct term is 'line-to-line' voltage. Secondly, without knowing what you mean by 'overall voltage', there is no way of answering your question.
In a 3 phase system, the voltage measured between any two phase is called line to line voltage.And the voltage measured between line to neutral is called phase to neutral (line to neutral) voltage.AnswerThere is no such thing as a 'phase-to-phase' or a 'phase-to-neutral' voltage. The correct terms are 'line-to-line' and 'line-to-neutral'.The voltage between any two line conductors is called a line voltage.In a three-phase, three-wire, system, the line voltage is numerically equal to the phase voltage.In a three-phase, four-wire, system, the voltage between any line conductor and the neutral conductor is called a phase voltage. The line voltage is 1.732 times larger than the phase voltage.
The nominal voltage in the UK is 400/230 V. That is 400 V line-to-line (i.e. line voltage), and 230-V line-to-neutral (i.e. phase voltage). Allowable variation is +10% and -6%.
The voltage you are referring to is a 'line-to-line' voltage ('line voltage'), as there is no such thing as a 'phase-to-phase' voltage.480 volts. In real life, the voltage will vary slightly by up to 3% (14 V) on a properly sized circuit. Line to neutral will measure 277 volts, plus or minus 3%.
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.
