    THREE-PHASE SYSTEM CHARACTERISTICS

    The electricity grid is made up of four main components:

    GENERATION: production of electricity from energy sources

    such as coal, natural gas, hydropower, wind and solar.

    TRANSMISSION: the transmission system carries the electricpower from power plants over long distances to a distribution

    system.

    DISTRIBUTION: the distribution system brings the power to the

    customers.

    COSTUMERS: these are the consumers of electric power

    (industry, service sector and residential uses).

    Unit 3. AC THREE-PHASE CIRCUITS

    THREE-PHASE SYSTEM CHARACTERISTICS

    Instantaneous electric power has a sinusoidal shape with double

    frequency than voltage or current.

    SINGLE-PHASE AC CIRCUITS: instantaneous electric power is

    negative twice a period (power flows from the load to thegenerator) and positive twice a period, falling to zero.

    BALANCED THREE-PHASE AC CIRCUITS: instantaneous

    electric power is constant. Three-phase power never fal ls to

    zero.

    Three-phase electric motors perform better than single-phase AC

    motors.

    Three-phase power systems allow two voltage levels (L-L, L-N).

    When electric power is transmitted, three-phase AC systems

    require 25% less Cu/Al than single-phase AC systems.

    Unit 3. AC THREE-PHASE CIRCUITS

    GENERATION OF THREE-PHASE VOLTAGES

    Three-phase generators contain three sinusoidal voltage sources

    with voltages of the same frequency but a 120-phase shift with

    respect to each other.

    This is achieved by positioning three coils separated by 120angles. There is only one rotor.

    Amplitudes of the three phases are also equal.

    The generator is then balanced.

    BALANCED WYE-CONNECTED LOAD

    The wye or star connection is made by connecting one end of each of

    the three-phase loads together.

    The voltage measured across a single load or phase is known as the

    phase voltage.

    The voltage measured between the lines is known as the line-to-line

    voltage or the line voltage.

    In a wye-connected system, the line voltage is higher than the load

    phase voltage by a factor of the square root of 3.

    In a wye-connected system, the phase current and line current are the

    same.

    1212

    Unit 3. AC THREE-PHASE CIRCUITS

    BALANCED DELTA-CONNECTED LOAD

    This connection received its name from the fact that a schematic

    diagram of it resembles the Greek letter delta ().

    In the delta connection, the line voltage and phase voltage in the load

    are the same.

    The line current of a delta connection is higher than the phase currentby a factor of the square root of 3.

    The three currents are balanced.

    Thus the sum of them is always zero.

    Since the neutral current of a balanced, Y-connected three-phase load is always zero,

    the neutral conductor may be removed with

    no change in the results.

    Question 1

    An electrical lineman is connecting three single-phase transformers in a Y(primary)-

    Y(secondary) configuration, for a businesss power service. Draw the connecting

    wires necessary between the transformer windings, and those required between the

    transformer terminals and the lines. Note: fuses have been omitted from this

    illustration for simplicity.

    Question 3

    Identify the primary-secondary connection configuration of these pole-mounted

    power transformers (i.e. Y-Y, Y-Delta, Delta-Y, etc.).

    These transformers areconnected in open-delta

    configuration.

    Three single-phase transformers are not normally used because this is more

    expensive than using one three-phase transformer.

    However, there is an advantageous method called the open-Delta or V-

    connection

    It functions as follows: a defective single-phase transformer in a Dd three-phase

    bank can be removed for repair. Partial service can be restored using the open-Delta configuration until a replacement transformer is obtained.

    Three-phase is still obtained with two transformers, but at 57.7% of the original

    power.

    This is a very practical transformer application for emergency conditions.

    Question 4

    One of the conductors connecting the secondary of a three-phase power distribution

    transformer to a large office building fails when open. Upon inspection, the source of

    the failure is obvious: the wire overheated at a point of contact with a terminal block,

    until it physically separated from the terminal. What is strange is that the overheated

    wire is the neutral conductor, not any one of the line conductors. Based on this

    observation, what do you think caused the failure?

    After repairing the wire, what would you do to verify the cause of the failure?

    Heres a hint (pista): if you were to repair the neutral wire and take current

    measurements with a digital instrument (using a clamp-on current probe, for safety), you

    would find that the predominant frequency of the current is 150 Hz, rather than 50 Hz.

    This scenario is all too common in modern power systems, as non-linear loads such asswitching power supplies and electronic power controls have become more prevalent.

    Special instruments exist to measure harmonics in power systems, but a simple DMM

    (digital multimeter) may be used as well to make crude assessments.
