    small note pythagoras only works for RIGHT triangles but this one is isoceles so if you split in the middle you get 2 equal right triangles and get the result

    at 9:30 you use "Pythagorus". Pythagorus is only for use in right angle triangles, because this is a 120 degree triangle between phases, the best geometric principal is called the cosine rule.

      Also the peak of the sine wave is not the 230V value.
      230V is the rms (root mean square). The peak is around 325V from neutral point.
      Final point. Could be worth pointing out how dangerous it can be to disconnect the neutral conductor in circumstances where safe isolation has not been done. (obviously not the case here) 😀

      I was about to confidently suggest you can cut it in two similar triangles (30, 60, 90) and use pythagorus then. But I don't think that leaves you any better off as you only know the hypothenuse (and some angles)

    A very good explanation of 3phase, except peak voltage of each line is approx 320, the average is 240 (0.707 times peak voltage); total between lines approx 590 x 0.707 is 415. Also having over stuffed trunking you getting more heat, so you need bigger cables; making it even more stuffed. Bigger is always better.

    @three-phase562 Год назад +7

    I think 'if in doubt ask' must be the standard CAD get out clause, I find it on every drawing I use. The 1.732 is derived from the Law of Sines for triangles rather than Pythagoras' theory. The sides of a triangle divided by the Sine of their opposite angles are all equal. VLine is opposite a 120 angle and VPhase is opposite a 30 angle. Setting VPhase to be 1V makes life easier, so you end up with 1V/Sin(30) = VLine/Sin(120). So 1V/0.5 = VLine/0.866, gives 2 = VLine/0.866. Re-arranging to find VLine gives, VLine = 0.866 x 2, which solving gives the 1.732 ratio.
    You also end up with the same value if you draw out the vector sum diagram and then measure the resultant line between VPhase1 + (-VPhase2).

    Nice explanation but it is worth pointing out that on the waveform showing the sine waves for each phase the maximum voltage isn't 230v as 230v is the nominal RMS (root mean square) figure - the actual voltage at the peaks will be up to 357v or thereabouts - it depends on the actual voltage delivered which in the UK can be as high as 253v RMS. This is why the insulation ratings on cables are based on the maximum peak voltage rather than the RMS and so seem larger.

    • @corymac
      @corymac  Год назад +1

      You’re correct! I’ve pinned the comment, and will make a video on RMS soon. I just kept it simple for now to understand the premise of three phase, also, I was just coming out of a flu as you’ll probably hear in my voice 😂. Thanks for pointing it out!

    For reference, i remember when i was taught it was "why we use 110v transformers" because they go between +55 to -55 which is never more than "touch voltage"

  • @aidensmobile614
    @aidensmobile614 Год назад +1

    Good to see you bringing this up, but the 230 V of a single phase to earth/neutral is the RMS voltage. Nearly all multimeters give you the RMS value which is equivalent to the heating effect of 230 Vdc. Drawing 230 at the peak of the AC waveform is incorrect and could confuse the youngsters.

    230 volts times square root of 3 or 1.732=400volts, no one phase is reaching it's peak at the same time. Each phase is 120 electrical degrees apart. In the US, most common nominal systems are 277v/480v or 120v/208v. Canada also has 347v/600volt systems.

  • @Chris-hy6jy
    @Chris-hy6jy Год назад +3

    As I hope people have already mentioned... The peak voltage of each phase is 340v, not 240v. 240v is the RMS value or "equivalent DC value"... i.e a DC voltage of 240v will deliver the same power across a resistive load as 240v AC.

    • @Jay369
      @Jay369 Год назад

      Why is RMS the "standard" used term and not the peak?

    • @Chris-hy6jy
      @Chris-hy6jy Год назад +1

      @@Jay369 if you connect 240v DC and 240v AC RMS to the same resistive heating element, it will deliver the same temperature so back in the early days of the grid when they were battling over whether it should be AC or DC, I guess they needed a way of expressing an equivalence with the DC system.

    As we talked about last night pal. Old C4 install & quite poorly designed by the original installers. All the lighting panels I've ever built generally have 1x rcbo per dimmer module on C6 curve. I bet none of those are type A too... all those led lights potentially DC blocking the original circuit... more than likely the inrush of the lights causing it to trip.
