Why do 3 phase motors not need a neutral
Since the current in each phase in a three-phase system is balanced, and with a phase difference of 120 degrees, the sum total current approaches zero, the neutral line is not needed for three-phase motors. A motor with the proper connections to a three-phase power source will run with no neutral line. Power Basics To […]
What is the difference between a three phase motor and a two-phase motor
These are the basic differences between a three-phase and a two-phase motor: the number of power phases and the application. A three-phase motor takes in three power lines carrying currents that are 120 degrees out of phase; thus, the three-phase motor runs smoothly and efficiently to be commonly employed in heavy machinery or equipment and […]
