Unit. C HEE-PHE CCU HEE-PHE YEM CHCEC Unit. C HEE-PHE CCU GEEO OF HEE-PHE OGE nstantaneous electric power has a sinusoidal shape with double frequency than voltage or current. GE-PHE C CCU: instantaneous electric power is negative twice a period (power flows from the load to the generator and positive twice a period, falling to zero. BCED HEE-PHE C CCU: instantaneous electric power is constant. hree-phase power never falls to zero. hree-phase electric motors perform better than single-phase C motors. hree-phase power systems allow two voltage levels (-, -. When electric power is transmitted, three-phase C systems require 5% less Cu/l than single-phase C systems. 5 hree-phase generators contain three sinusoidal voltage sources with voltages of the same frequency but a 0º-phase shift with respect to each other. his is achieved by positioning three coils separated by 0º angles. here is only one rotor. mplitudes of the three phases are also equal. he generator is then balanced. 6 Unit.

C HEE-PHE CCU uestion dentify the primary-secondary connection configuration of these pole-mounted power transformers (i.e. Y-Y, Y-Delta, Delta-Y, etc.. hese transformers are connected in open-delta configuration. hree single-phase transformers are not normally used because this is more expensive than using one three-phase transformer. However, there is an advantageous method called the open-delta or - connection t functions as follows: a defective single-phase transformer in a Dd three-phase bank can be removed for repair. Partial service can be restored using the open- Delta configuration until a replacement transformer is obtained. hree-phase is still obtained with two transformers, but at 57.7% of the original power. 9 his is a very practical transformer application for emergency conditions. Unit. C HEE-PHE CCU uestion 4 One of the conductors connecting the secondary of a three-phase power distribution transformer to a large office building fails when open. Upon inspection, the source of the failure is obvious: the wire overheated at a point of contact with a terminal block, until it physically separated from the terminal. What is strange is that the overheated wire is the neutral conductor, not any one of the line conductors. Based on this observation, what do you think caused the failure? fter repairing the wire, what would you do to verify the cause of the failure? Here s a hint ( pista : if you were to repair the neutral wire and take current measurements with a digital instrument (using a clamp-on current probe, for safety, you would find that the predominant frequency of the current is 50 Hz, rather than 50 Hz. his scenario is all too common in modern power systems, as non-linear loads such as switching power supplies and electronic power controls have become more prevalent. pecial instruments exist to measure harmonics in power systems, but a simple DMM (digital multimeter may be used as well to make crude assessments.
