Objective:
The purpose of the lab study on three-phase system is to make students understand the basic
principle and behavior of three-phase electrical power. This includes exploring three-phase
generation power, analyzing voltage and currents, studying balanced and unbalanced loads,
investigating three-phase motors and transformers. Power distribution by analyzing and
searching for faults.

Answer to the question no 1:
Theoretically relation between line voltage and phase voltage is that the line voltage is √3 time
of phase voltage,
Theoretically relation between line current and phase current is that the line current is √3 time of
phase current,
There is difference between the experimental values and the theoretical values.
Answer to the question no: 2
Circuit Diagram:
Datasheet:
From the datasheet,
𝑊 = 38 𝑤
𝑊1 = 93 𝑤
𝑊2 = 35 𝑤
We know that,
Pt = 𝑊1 + 𝑊2 = (93 + 35) 𝑤
= 128 𝑤
Again,
=> 𝜃 = −24.23°
So.
Pf = cos(−24.23) = 0.912 𝑤
The power factor (Pf) of the Y-connected load of the 3-phase system used in this experiment is
0.912 w and the total real power and reactive power consumed by the load is -58 w.
Discussion:
A three-phase system uses three alternating currents, each 120 degrees apart, for efficient power
generation and distribution. Common configurations are star (Y) and delta (Δ). It offers
consistent power, smoother motor operation, and greater efficiency than single-phase systems.
Power calculations involve active, reactive, and apparent power. Balancing loads and adhering to
safety standards are crucial. Three-phase systems are ideal for industrial and commercial use due
to their efficiency and reliability.
