What is line phase neutral?

Line, phase, neutral are terms used to describe the conductors in a three-phase system. The three live wires are called 'lines', and less correctly, 'phases'. Neutral is used for the fourth wire which in a balanced system carries no current.


What is phase line?

In a three phase system the term line refers to any one the three legs that are used in the system. The termination points are L1, L2 and L3. The voltages between any three legs will be the line voltage.


What is voltage phase to phase 380 3 phase?

Voltage phase to phase in a 380V 3-phase system refers to the voltage measured between any two of the three live conductors in the system. In a balanced 3-phase system, the phase to phase voltage is equal to the line voltage, which is 380V in this case. This voltage is commonly used in industrial and commercial applications to power heavy machinery and equipment. It is important to note that the phase to phase voltage is higher than the phase to neutral voltage in a 3-phase system.


Why you multiply by square root of 3 for phase?

In electrical engineering, multiplying by the square root of 3 is often used when converting between line-to-line and line-to-neutral voltages in three-phase systems. The factor arises from the geometry of a balanced three-phase system, where the line-to-line voltage is √3 times greater than the line-to-neutral voltage. This relationship helps in calculating the correct phase values when analyzing or designing three-phase circuits. Thus, it ensures that the power calculations and voltage levels are accurately represented.


What is the difference between line voltage and phase voltage?

The three 'hot' conductors supplying electricity to a three-phase load are called LINES, not 'phases' (although unfortunately the term 'phase' is widely, but incorrectly, used in the field). Phases exist between line and neutral in star, or wye, connected systems, and between lines in a delta, or mesh, connected system. Accordingly, the term 'phase to phase' is quite meaningless. A line voltage, therefore, exists between any two lines. For a star (wye) connected system, a phase voltage exists between any line and the neutral conductor. For a delta (mesh) system, a phase voltage is exactly the same as a line voltage.


What is the difference between line to line voltage to line to ground voltage?

A three-phase, four-wire, system consists of three 'hot' conductors which are called line conductors, and a neutral conductor, sourced from a wye (or 'star') connected alternator or transformer. For this type of system, line voltages exist between line conductors, and phase voltages exist between any line conductor and the neutral conductor.A three-phase, three-wire, system consists of three 'hot' conductors which are called line conductors, sourced from a delta (or 'mesh') connected alternator or transformer. For this type of system, the phases are connected between lines. Line voltages exist between line conductors, and these are numerically equal to the phase voltages.


When three phase supply available one of the phase is damaged the remaining system is said to be two phase or single phase supply?

A 3-phase 3-wire system provides a single-phase supply between any two wires. On a 3-phase 4-wire system with one line out but the neutral intact, the system is described as a faulty 3-phase system but it would allow a 3-phase motor to start, but not run properly. True 2-phase systems with the voltages in quadrature (90 degrees or one quarter cycle apart) were used in the 19th century but not since then because 3-phase was found to be better.


In a 3 phase 480 panel what voltage should you get phase to phase?

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%.


What is phase supply and three phase supply?

I think you mean 'single-phase supply', rather than 'phase supply'. All high-voltage a.c. transmission and distribution systems are three-phase systems. This is because, for a given load, a three-phase system uses less copper than a single-phase system. Three-phase generators produce three 'phase voltages', each displaced, by 120 electrical degrees. These voltages are produced in three windings which are electrically connected in what is called a 'delta' configuration, with each 'corner' of the delta connected to the transmission system by 'line' conductors. Three-phase systems are either 'three-wire' or 'four-wire' systems. Generally, three-phase, three-wire, systems are used for high-voltage transmission and distribution, whereas three-phase, four-wire, systems are typically (but not always) used for low-voltage distribution. Three-wire systems comprise three conductors called 'line conductors'; four-wire systems comprise three 'line conductors' and a 'neutral conductor'. Depending the voltage standards used in the country in which you live, a single-phase supply is obtained either by connecting single-phase load between any two line conductors, or between any one line conductor and the neutral conductor.


How much current will flow in neutral line for three phase supply 100amps?

If all three legs of the system are balanced then zero amps will flow all the way up to 100 amps if only one leg of the three phase system is used. The neutral in a wye three phase system carries only the unbalanced current. This is why in services for a three phase four wire system you are allowed to reduce the size of the neutral conductor.


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".
