SINGLE PHASE TWO WIRE
V p
Objectives
Explain the differences between single-
phase, two-phase and three-phase.
Compute and define the Balanced Three-
Phase voltages.
Determine the phase and line
voltages/currents for Three-Phase
systems.
SINGLE PHASE SYSTEM
A generator connected through a pair of wire to
a load – Single Phase Two Wire.
Vp is the magnitude of the source voltage, and
is the phase.
SINLGE PHASE THREE WIRE

V p
SINGLE PHASE SYSTEM
Most common in practice: two identical
sources connected to two loads by two outer
wires and the neutral: Single Phase Three Wire.
Terminal voltages have same magnitude and
the same phase.
POLYPHASE SYSTEM
Circuit or system in which AC
sources operate at the same
frequency but different phases are
known as polyphase.
TWO PHASE SYSTEM THREE WIRE
V p
V p 90
POLYPHASE SYSTEM
Two Phase System:
◦ A generator consists of two coils placed perpendicular
to each other
◦ The voltage generated by one lags the other by 90.
POLYPHASE SYSTEM
Three Phase System:
◦ A generator consists of three coils placed 120 apart.
◦ The voltage generated are equal in magnitude but,
out of phase by 120.
Three phase is the most economical polyphase
system.
THREE PHASE FOUR
WIRE
IMPORTANCE OF THREE PHASE
SYSTEM
All electric power is generated and distributed
in three phase.
◦ One phase, two phase, or more than three phase
input can be taken from three phase system rather
than generated independently.
◦ Melting purposes need 48 phases supply.
IMPORTANCE OF THREE PHASE
SYSTEM
Uniform power transmission and less vibration
of three phase machines.
◦ The instantaneous power in a 3 system can be
constant (not pulsating).
◦ High power motors prefer a steady torque especially
one created by a rotating magnetic field.
IMPORTANCE OF THREE PHASE
SYSTEM
Three phase system is more economical than
the single phase.
◦ The amount of wire required for a three phase system
is less than required for an equivalent single phase
system.
◦ Conductor: Copper, Aluminum, etc
