SMITH, Mulmmd , Rayon - WWIA2 - Gwp 2 - Membu b Py Experiment Wa : THREE-PHASE 5 © CIRCUITS OBJECTIVES : 1. To study the relationship between voltage and current in three-phase circuits. 2. To learn how to make delta and wye connection. DISCUSSION: Students tend to approach three-phase circuits with a certain apprehension which is not at all justified. Three-phase circuits, in majority of cases, are symmetrical. They consist of three identical branches, each of which has the same impedance. Each of these branches can be treated exactly like a single phase circuit. Consequently, three-phase circuits are not necessarily harder to work with than single-phase circuits. Three-phase circuits are usually connected in either delta or wye configuration. Each of these connections has definite electrical characteristics and the designations delta and wye are derived from the method of connection. INSTRUMENTS AND COMPONENTS : AC voltmeter ACammeter Lamp, 220 v, 25 w PROCEDURE : 1. Connect the circuit shown in Fig. 1.1. Use a balanced load. 2. Measure and record each of the phase voltages Eca, Eas and Enc. 3. Measure and record each of the phase currents Ica, Ian and Inc. 4, Measure and record each of the line currents Ia, Inand Ic, 5. Repeat steps 1-4 for an unbalanced delta load. 6. Connect the lamps in wye configuration. Measure and record the phase voltages, line voltages and line currents for a balanced load.
