not 4C??

Answer / ajay lathwal
Generally motors are of two type 1) single phase 2) three
phase
1) in this type 3 core cable used 1 for phase 2nd for
neutral 3rd for ground
while in,
2) in this type 3 core cable used for three phases & ground
is attached separatlly
Thats why 3 core cable used.

Answer / suburavichandran
only 3 phase motors are connected with such 3c cables. it is because the 4th core is used for neutral return particularly during unbalanced condition.It rises when each phase is connected to different single phase loads.since 3phase motors are balanced loads.there s no need for the 4th core i mean neutral.

Answer / anant.katwa
4c is supplied bcz the 4th core use as spare core if one of
the core get open it may use.

Answer / neeraj pandey
Generally the Motors(approx 80% AC Motors) are 3 Phase
operated and having three terminals for taking supply. so
they required only three core cable.
Thats why there is no need of extra core in cable.

What is difference between start imitation and start interlock for 3 phase motor protection ?
Draw a 230kv two-bus bar system showing the following. 1.Two generators (150MW) each connected through one 15.75/230KV transformers 2. 1 outgoing lines 3. Two 230/130 KV transformers 4. BUS PT's 5. CT
For a Potential Transformer(PT), the primary neutral terminal must be grounded before energization. Why....? What will be heppend if we energize the PT without grounded the primary neutral point? Why..........?
