Three Phase Circuit Concept
• The basic structure of a three phase system consists of voltage source,
transformers, transmission line and connected loads.
Van = V p 0
Reference
Vbn = V p − 120 = V p + 240
Vcn = V p − 240 = V p + 120

Balanced Wye-wye Connection
Looking at Source side:
• Phase voltages are: Van, Vbn and
Vcn.
• The three conductors connected
from a to A, b to B and c to C are
called LINES
• The voltage from one line to
another is called a LINE voltage
• Line voltages are: Vab, Vbc and Vca
Line current In add up to zero. • Magnitude of line voltages is √3
Neutral current is zero: times the magnitude of phase
In= -(Ia+ Ib+ Ic)= 0 voltages. VL= √3 Vp

Balanced Wye-delta connection
• Three phase sources are Wye connected and three phase loads are
Delta connected.
Looking at Load side:
• Line current are: Ia, Ib and Ic.
• Phase current are: IAB, IBC and ICA
• Magnitude of line current is √3 times
the magnitude of phase current IL= √3 Ip

Per-phase Analysis
• Recall that in balanced set of variables, once we know one variable, the
other two can be found by simply adding or subtracting 120o.
• Thus, we only need to consider and solve one loop of the previous figure
• Usually the one line that is considered is the "a" phase. The "b" phase
quantities are then found by subtracting 120o, and the "c" phase
quantities are found by adding 120o.
Per-phase Analysis (4 Steps)
• Step 1: Convert all Δ−connected sources and loads to
equivalent Y-connections.
P3 = 3P1
= 3 | VP || I P | cos
V
= 3 L (I L ) cos

= 3 | VL || I L | cos
Vp and I p are the magnitude of the rms phase voltage and current
Three Phase Power- connection
P3 = 3P1
= 3 | VP || I P | cos
IL

= 3 | VL || I L | cos
Note:
In balanced systems, all the single phase and the three phase have
the same power factor (pf) and thus the same power factor angle =
impedance angle = .
Three Phase Power: and Y connection
• Active Power:
P3 = 3 | VP || I P | cos = 3 | VL || I L | cos
• Reactive Power:
Q3 = 3 | VP || I P | sin θ = 3 | VL || I L | sin
