Three Phase Power
- 2019-06-18 15:55:49
- admin
As well being the most efficient way to distribute power over long distances, three-phase power also enables industrial equipment to operate more efficiently. Three-phase power is characterised by three single-phase waves that are offset in their phase angle by 120 degrees, or one third of the sine wave period (see Figure 1). Three-phase voltage can be measured from each phase to neutral or from o...
