    In North American practice, the wye point of the primary in wye-delta three phase transformer banks (wye-primary; delta-secondary), is often disconnected from the neutral to balance the secondary voltages. This allows the wye point to "float".

    Sir great explanation.. But i have 2 questions..
    1- Is A transformer of an inverter similar to distribution transformer.. I mean a small tranformer also has a neutral wire or it difference from distribution transformer??
    2- if neutral make balance of each load of a house then why sometimes we face the problems of low or high voltage in our house??

    Thanks for sharing. If the neutral wire detected amps value, which is not negligible, can we assume the 3 phase loads are not balanced? Second question, if we found the voltage on each phase is not identical, can we assume there might be a problem with the neutral wire?

    1. What will happen if we joint two different transformer neutral wire together
    2. What will happen if we connect load phase wire from 1 transformer and neutral with 2nd transformer
    3. In large UPS system there is 3 core wire for 3-phase inputs, but out of ups is 3 phase with neutral, how we get this neutral on UPS output

  • @ananthharitsa3428
    @ananthharitsa3428 Před 2 lety

    After watching this video, I wanted to write this.
    First, we understand the CURRENT in a simple way.
    We are having an Over Head Tank at every house, right? From there we are having connections to our bath rooms, kitchen, utility etc. with the pipe line (Plumbing line). Once we open the tap, the water will flow from the Over Head Tank to the tap through the pipe line. We use / consume that water.
    Consider, you are having a Geyser at your house. It consumes current to operate. If we give some current by turning on the switch (Same as Water in the pipe line to the Tap) with required force, (Voltage) the Geyser will draw / Consume the power (As designed). Wires used in this are the Conductors which carry the current same as pipe line which carries water. Here the Power source would be Transformer same as Over Head Tank for water. We can draw the current as much as we required to our electrical gadgets. (But the transformer can not store the current as we store the water in Over Head Tank, Current comes directly from the Generating Station through Transformer)
    Example:
    Geyser Power (P) = 1000 Watts (Consider as Consumption of Water (Quantity) with specified force)
    Current (I) =? (Consider as Water which you are going to consume)
    Voltage (V) = 220 V (Consider as Pressure of Water flowing in the Pipe line)
    Formula: P = V X I
    That is, 1000 = 220 X I
    So Current (I) = 1000/220 = 4.5 Amps (Consider, you consumed 4.5 Litre of water)
    There is No Minus Current as told in this video. (Think about the Water, how will you minus the water?)
    Neutral Current will be zero if all the 3-Phase current is same. (Balanced)
    “All the current meeting at junction is Zero” according to Kirchhoff’s Current Law
    Consider, there are three houses with single phase power supply connection with different phases (R, Y B).
    House R - Consuming 5Amps
    House Y - Consuming 8Amps
    House B - Consuming 10Amps
    Then the Neutral Current would be
    √(R2 + Y2 + B2 - RY - RB - YB)
    √(52 + 82 + 102 - 5X8 - 5X10 - 8X10)
    √(25 + 64 + 100 - 40 - 50 - 80)
    √(189 - 170) = √19 = 4.36 Amps
    So, in this case, the unbalanced 3-Phase load Neutral Current will be 4.36 Amps.
    The Neutral Current would have been zero, if each Phase current would have 5 or 8 or 10Amps
    Neutral current will be high if the load is not equal in 3-Phase circuit. But it will be less when compare to each phase Maximum current. So always we use Half of the Phase Cable size for Neutral in 3-Phase loads, considering the balanced load.
