In power systems, great care is taken to ensure that the loads of transmission lines
are balanced. For balanced loads, the terminal voltages of the generator VAn , VBn

The relationship between the line currents and phase currents is demonstrated

If the rms of any of the line currents is denoted by IL , then one of the important characteristics of the -connected three-phase load may be expressed as
IL

(2.12)
Thus in the case of -connected loads, the magnitude of the line current is
times the magnitude of the phase current, and with positive phase sequence, the set
of line currents lags the set of phase currents by .

Since the neutral carries no current, a neutral wire of any impedance may be replaced by any other impedance, including a short circuit and an open circuit. The
return line may not actually exist, but regardless, a line of zero impedance is included between the two neutral points. The balanced power system problems are
then solved on a per-phase basis. It is understood that the other two phases carry
identical currents except for the phase shift.
We may then look at only one phase, say phase A, consisting of the source
VAn in series with ZL and Zp , as shown in Figure 2.8. The neutral is taken as datum
and usually a single-subscript notation is used for phase voltages.
If the load in a three-phase circuit is connected in a , it can be transformed
into a Y by using the -to-Y transformation. When the load is balanced, the
impedance of each leg of the Y is one-third the impedance of each leg of the , as
given by (2.18), and the circuit is modeled by the single-phase equivalent circuit.

The three double frequency cosine terms in (2.23) are out of phase with each other
and add up to zero, and the three-phase instantaneous power is

(2.24)
26 2. Three-phase Systems
v i is the angle between phase voltage and phase current or the impedance
angle.
Note that although the power in each phase is pulsating, the total instantaneous power is constant and equal to three times the real power in each phase. Indeed, this constant power is the main advantage of the three-phase system over the
single-phase system. Since the power in each phase is pulsating, the power, then,
is made up of the real power and the reactive power. In order to obtain formula
symmetry between real and reactive powers, the concept of complex or apparent
power (S ) is extended to three-phase systems by defining the three-phase reactive
power as
Q3
jVpjjIpj
(2.25)
=3
sin
or
= P3 + jQ3
(2.26)
= 3VpIp
(2.27)
S3
Equations (2.24) and (2.25) are sometimes expressed in terms of the rms
magnitude of the line voltage and the rms magnitude
of the line current. In a Yp
connected load the phase voltage jVp j jVL j=p and the phase current Ip IL .
In the -connection Vp VL and jIp j jIL j= . Substituting for the phase voltage and phase currents in (2.24) and (2.25), the real and reactive powers for either
connection are given by
p
P3
jVLjjIL j
(2.28)
=
=
= 3
and
Q3
3
3
cos
= 3jVLjjIL j sin
(2.29)
A comparison of the last two expressions with (2.24) and (2.25) shows that the
equation for the power in a three-phase system is the same for either a Y or a
connection when the power is expressed in terms of line quantities.
When using (2.28) and (2.29) to calculate the total real and reactive power,
remember that is the phase angle between the phase voltage and the phase current.
As in the case of single-phase systems for the computation of power, it is best to
use the complex power expression in terms of phase quantities given by (2.27).
The rated power is customarily given for the three-phase and rated voltage is the
line-to-line voltage. Thus, in using the per-phase equivalent circuit,
p care must be
.
taken to use per-phase voltage by dividing the rated voltage by
