Three Phase NOTES

This document discusses three-phase circuits and connections. It describes two configurations for three-phase sources: wye and delta. It also discusses balanced wye-wye, delta-delta, wye-delta, and delta-wye connections. The key relationships between phase and line voltages and currents are defined for each configuration. Single-phase equivalents are presented for balanced wye-wye and delta-delta connections.

ENGR 12 Ch 12 Three Phase Circuits

Two Different Three-phase Source configurations:

Wye Source (for Load just reverse all currents): Delta Source (for Load just reverse all currents):

Phase Voltages Van, Vbn, Vcn Phase Voltages and Line Voltages are the same
Line Voltages Vab, Vbc, Vca Vab, Vbc, Vca are phase and line voltages

(KVL:) Vab = Van –Vbn = Van/+30 (abc) Phase Currents Iab, Ibc, Ica
= Van/-30 (acb) Line Currents Ia, Ib, Ic

Phase Currents and Line Currents are the same (KCL:) Ia = Iab – Ica = Iab/-30 (abc)
Ia, Ib, Ic are phase and line currents = Iab/+30 (acb)

Delta Currents – (abc) (acb)


Wye Voltages (abc) (acb)
Balanced Y-Y Connection:

Single Phase Equivalent

Ia = Van / Zy and all other Voltages and Currents


found by using phase relationships above

Balanced Delta – Delta Connection

Iab = Vab / Z


Ibc = Vbc / Z
Ica = Vca / Z

(abc)
Ia = Iab – Ica = Iab/-30 (+30 acb)
Ib = Ibc – Iab = Ibc/-30
Ic = Ica – Ibc = Ica/-30

Balanced Wye – Delta Connection

Iab = Vab / Z


Ibc = Vbc / Z
Ica = Vca / Z

(abc)
Ia = Iab – Ica = Iab/-30 (+30 acb)
Ib = Ibc – Iab = Ibc/-30
Ic = Ica – Ibc = Ica/-30

Delta-Wye Conversions: using R below but Z works the same way:

BALANCED: IF R1 = R2 = R3 = RY and Ra=Rb=Rc = R, then R = 3RY, and RY = R/3
