Why 380 volts line to line if connect line to neutral is 220 volts?

A voltage of 380 volts is a three phase voltage. On a three phase four wire system, each phase leg to neutral (grounded) will give you 220 volts. This voltage is obtained by dividing the phase voltage by 1.73, as the phase legs are generated 120 degrees from each other. Square root of three is 1.73 divided into 380 equals 220 volts.


Can you collect one 220 volt phase from a 380 volt three phase plug?

Answer for UK and countries running a 50 Hz supply service.The voltage potential of 380 volts is not common to North America.It will probably be difficult to tap into the plug to get the voltage.If you have a three phase 380 volt supply from a source then you can obtain a single phase voltage of 220 volts from it. 220/380 is a wye voltage connection. 380 divided by 1.73 will give you 220 volts. L1 - N = 220V, L2 - N =220V, L3 - N = 220V. L1 - L2 = 380, L2 - L3=380, L3 - L1 = 380.


How many amps drawn a 110KW motor?

Watts = Volts times Amps. Therefore, if the voltage was 220 volts, the motor would draw 500 amps. If the voltage was 4,000 volts, the motor would draw 27.5 amps. The voltages for large powerful motors tend to be relatively high, for example in the 380 Volts to 11,500 Volts range.


380volt 266KW how many amps?

volts = watts divided by amps amps = watts divided by volts watts = amps times volts so 266,000 watts divided by 380 volts = 700 amps and I might also point out that whatever it is you are talking about is very dangerous and can kill you in less than a heartbeat. I'd be sure to talk with an electrician if I were you if you plan on going anywhere near that.


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.

How do you convert 3 phase star configuration 380 volts supply into 220 volts supply?

The process of obtaining 220 volts from 380 volts is quite simple. 380 volts is a three phase four wire system voltage. The 220 volts is obtained by taking the sq. root of 3 which equals 1.73 and dividing it into the phase voltage. 380/1.73 = 220 volts. This holds true with any three phase four wire voltage system. 208/1.73 = 120 volts, 415/1.73 = 230 volts, 480/1.73 = 277 volts and 600/1.73 = 347 volts. This lower voltage is present on any of the three phase legs of the three phase system to the neutral which is grounded on a wye connection.

What does 380 volts between phases mean?

You cannot have 380 V between 'phases'. You can, on the other hand, have 380 V 'between lines'! '380 V between lines' refers to the voltage measured between any pair of line conductors in a three-phase system.


Is it safe to connect 380 volts 3 phase supply to 220 volts 3 phase supply?

No.


Would a 15 kva 380 volt generator be big enough to run a house with a 60 amp breaker 380 volts?

A 15 KVA - Generator operating at 380 Volts can cater to only 22.79 Amps. It cannot cater to a 60 Amps breaker


Can you collect one 220 volt phase from a 380 volt three phase plug?

Answer for UK and countries running a 50 Hz supply service.The voltage potential of 380 volts is not common to North America.It will probably be difficult to tap into the plug to get the voltage.If you have a three phase 380 volt supply from a source then you can obtain a single phase voltage of 220 volts from it. 220/380 is a wye voltage connection. 380 divided by 1.73 will give you 220 volts. L1 - N = 220V, L2 - N =220V, L3 - N = 220V. L1 - L2 = 380, L2 - L3=380, L3 - L1 = 380.

How do you get a 220 volt single phase from 380 volt 3phase synchrounos generator?

220 volt single phase from 480 volt 3 phase that one wire taken one phase and second wire connected in earth point. we get 220 v The above answer is incorrect, one phase from a three phase 480 volt system will give you 277 volts to ground. You must use a transformer to get the voltage you need.


What is the difference between 277 volts and 240 volts?

These voltages are both wye connection three phase voltages. The voltage difference comes from the primary three phase voltage supplies. 277 volts is obtained from 277 x 1.73 = 480 and 240 volts is obtained from 240 x 1.73 = 415. 480/277 volts is a common three phase American voltage. 415/240 volts is a European voltage. In Canada a common three phase voltage is 347/600. The 240 volts could also be a single phase voltage in North America derived from a split phase secondary on a distribution transformer that supplies 120/240 volts to homes.
