There is no such thing as a 'phase conductor'. The correct term is 'line conductor'. Line conductors are the three energised conductors that supply a three-phase load.

Why the 3 phase of high voltage conductor or cable transposed?
3 phase cable is transposed to minimize the effect of leakage/capacitance current.
WHAT IS R1 plus R2?
r1 plus r2 is the measurement of the combined electrical continuity of the phase conductor and circuit protective conductor on and electrical circuit.
What is the correct size of main bonding conductors for a tn-s system having 25mm phase?
By rule of thumb, the neutral conductor is half the size of main conductor.
You have 230v 3 phase power can you plug a 230v single phase motor into it?
Any two legs of a three phase system are classed as single phase. So yes a single phase motor will operate when connected. Be sure to use the proper motor protection devices to control the motor.
Is the neutral conductor of a two wire single phase circuit considered a current carrying conductor?
Sure. In a two-wire circuit, both wires carry equal currents.
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.
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.
What color are the phase neutral and earth cores in flexible cords?
It depends on the electrical standards of the country in which you live. In Europe, for example, the line conductor(not 'phase conductor'!) is brown, the neutral conductor is blue, and the earth conductor* is green/yellow stripe.[*properly called a 'protective conductor']
Is current from a generator flows through the phase line and return through neutral to generator?
Yes, except that the correct term is 'line' conductor, not a 'phase' conductor.
What is the color of a phase conductor?
well that all depends when your dealing with what voltage is being applied to your motor,home, or building. the phase conductor in A panel box can be labeled with either red, or blue tape meaning that's the phase conductor or hot. This all comes down to with what type of electrical equipment or service your working with, The word phase just means that's the hot side and the hot side is usually the black wire, although a red or blue wire can to. Plus a wire being the hot conductor, or load the NEC likes to call it the phase conductor.CommentThe term 'phase' conductor, in this context, is incorrect. The correct term is 'line' conductor.
How many wires are in a 3 phase circuit?
A ground, or earth, conductor is never included in the conductor count. So, a three-phase, three-wire, system has three line conductors, whereas a three-phase, four-wire system, has three line conductors and a neutral conductor.
How many wire or core in three phase electrical connection and single-phase electrical connection?
A single-phase cable will have a line and a neutral conductor and, possibly, but not necessarily, an earth (ground) conductor. A high-voltage three-phase cable will have three line conductors. A low-voltage three-phase cable is likely to have three line conductors and a neutral conductor.
Is there a neutral conductor in a 3 phase 4 wire wye system?
no
What is the voltage for each leg on a 480v 3-phase pannel phase to neutral?
Only one neutral conductor is typically in a 3 phase panel.
What conductor should be grounded in a four wire three phase system?
The neutral.
Is network solid a poor conductor of electricity?
network solids do not conduct electricity in the solid or liquid phase, but yes in the aqueous phase
What will happen if single phase load is connected to three phase circuit?
To obtain a single-phase supply from a three-phase supply, the single-phase load must be connected either (a) between any pair of line conductors, or (b) between any line conductor and the neutral conductor. Of course, the voltage obtained from either of these connections must match the voltage rating of the load.
