Floating neutral in 3 phase supply is undesirable as if the same thing occurs then there will be bad effect for all single phase equipment which we are using as phase to neutral voltage will exceed from its normal value and it will harm the equipments.

Can you convert 415v 3 phase to 230v single phase?
415V 3 phase is the line to line voltage. The line to neutral of this supply is 230V single phase. Therefore you use one of the phases and the neutral.
What is the voltage for a single phase from a 415 volt 3 phase and neutral supply?
240V. 415 / 1.73 = 240
Where is the neutral for 25kv ac single phase supply used for electric locomotives?
from ground
Voltage across Neutral and earth for a 3 phase auto transformer?
A grounded neutral will be at earth potential. A floating neutral will be at a voltage dependent upon the voltage imbalance between phases, and the design of the transformer.
How do you hook up a 3 phase water heater to a 3 wires 1 white 1 black 1 bare copper ground?
In order to answer your question, firstly, we have to accurately establish your supply.Is it 2 phase or 2 wire?2 phase is two active conductors, i.e. 2 live wires with reference to neutral or ground2 wire is single phase, an active and a neutral conductor.2 phase supply is uncommon.Single phase (2 wire) is the more common supply and for installations with large loads three phase, or, more appropriately 3 phase and neutral (4 wire) is used.Please confirm your supply so that a detailed answer can be provided.
How do you reduce neutral to earth voltage in three phase system?
It is done by connecting the neutral to earth at the transformer that produces the three-phase supply. If the three phase wire supply equal currents, there is no current in the neutral wire and its whole length stays at earth potential, but if there is current in the neutral it produces a small voltage on the neutral at places away from the transformer.
What is the total of a phase to earth voltage on 11000 volts?
An 11,000 volt three-phase supply has a voltage of 6351 from live to neutral, when there is a neutral wire.
What is the difference between three phase load and phase supply?
How much current equipments are drawing from three phases (combined or individual) is called three phase load and how much supply we are getting from source is called three phase supply. Ex. In INDIA single phase supply is 220 volt ac with neutral. So in three phase supply all RYB phases should be 220 volts ac with neutral individually. If we calculate with phase to phase than it shoulb be 415 volts ac.
Can you convert 415v 3 phase to 230v single phase?
415V 3 phase is the line to line voltage. The line to neutral of this supply is 230V single phase. Therefore you use one of the phases and the neutral.

Why neutral is earthed?
Neutral earth is very necessary for observe the unbalaced laod of the 3 phase system. it is also useful for single phase supply and in lighting purpose. neutral earth is also earthed the short ciruit fauly current , which is flowing through neutral. this type it is very essencial for protection and safety purpose.AnswerThere are a number of reasons why the neutral of a supply is earthed (grounded). The first reason is to protect the low-voltage secondary side of the distribution tranformer in the event of a short circuit from the high-voltage secondary side (it will cause the protection on the high-voltage side to disconnect the transformer). The second reason is to establish a datum point for potentials measured on the secondary side of the tranformers -in particular, if the star-point of a three-phase transformer is not earthed, then an unbalanced load will result in unbalanced supply phase voltages, and a potential-difference between neutral and earth -both undesirable and dangerous.
How you can convert 1-phase voltage to 3-phase voltage and vice-vars a?
A single-phase supply is obtained between any two line conductors or between a line and neutral conductor of a three-phase supply. To obtain a three-phase supply from a single-phase source is far more difficult, and requires additional equipment.
Voltage across Neutral and earth for a 3 phase auto transformer?
A grounded neutral will be at earth potential. A floating neutral will be at a voltage dependent upon the voltage imbalance between phases, and the design of the transformer.
Can you use phase voltage as a single phase?
A single phase supply can be obtained between any pair of line conductors or between a line conductor and a neutral conductor.
Why single phase is preferred to three phase?
Single phase is not preferred over three phase, it is the system used that the application needs to operate with. There are more single phase installations than three phase due to the fact homes operate on that system. Where as most commercial and industrial applications call for a three phase system to supply their power needs.Single-phase and three-phase are different types of power supply.Most houses and small businesses have a single-phase supply, which could be a simple live/neutral two-wire supply, or a split-phase supply with two lives and a neutral so that there is 120 v between the neutral and either live wire, but 240 v between the two live wires, which is used for loads of over 1500 watts.When necessary, properties that use more power have a three-phase supply which has three live wires and a neutral. The supply can be taken in the form of three separate single-phase supplies, or in some cases appliances such as large motors need a three-phase supply to work correctly.A three-phase supply is described by the voltage between any two of the three live wires, and the voltage from neutral to each live is 1/sqrt(3) times as much, in other words 42% less.Typical three-phase supplies are 120/208 v, 230/400 v, 240/415 v, 277/480 v and 347/600 v. The first figure is the live-neutral voltage and the second is the live-live voltage. Single-phase supplies can be taken between live and neutral or between lives.Three-phase is preferred for power transmission over longer distances, and voltages up to hundreds of kV are used. In this case the neutral is omitted because when the three currents in the live wires are equal the current in the neutral is zero.
