is it possible to step down voltage of single phase from a three phase sysem? explain..

Answer / y.vidya sagar

Yes, we can use autotransformer connection or tappings on
one phase to get the reduced voltage in one particular
phase while all the other phases give the same magnitude of
voltage as before to the load. As the tapping is varied we
can get the variable voltage.

I find that underground strip-armoiured,4core,LT PVC cables in an earthed power distribution sytem are occasionly found in charred condition-with no trace of it except ash. Is this because of no proper earth connection/continuity (giving rising to high armour resistance)in the joint enroute or because of insufficient capability (again due to high armour resistance)of cable-armour to carry fault current or due to neglected /unprotected overloading of the cable or due to high armour currents caused by power thefts where only phase(s) are unauthorisely tapped & at the point of poer consumption earth terminal is established by burring underground a not so good earthing rod (or using an underground water pipe for the purpose)
