3phase 4 wire system is more reliable or 3 phase 3 wire systems?
Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
Answer / rahul
3 Phase 4 wire means 3 phases R,Y,B and a neutral, so it is usually used if you need a single phase voltage. For a 3 phase load need just 3 phase 3 wire system.

We should have clear concept regarding where 3 phase 3 wire system used and where 3 phase 4
Wire system used
1.3 phase 3 wire system= In India electrisity is generat at 11 or 33 kv.then it is step up with the help of tranformer. To transfer it from generation station to substation 3 phase 3 wire system is used. Then it is step down at substation or directly feed to application having such rating. Genarally 11 kv feeder are brought near to distrubution transformer near to load ( near to home genarally called DP). The input to distribition transformer is 11 kv feeder and output of transformer is 440 v , 3 ,phase 4 wire system. ie 3 phase R,Y,B and one neutral.
2. 3phase 4 wire system = the secondary side of transformer is star connected so line voltage become 1/sq root 3, ie near 240 v . Our home appliances are design to work at Approximataly 230 v ,50 hz so we need any one phase and neutal for single phase load .
3. Also for high power application we need 3 phase 3 wire system such as Induction motor.
4. Both the system have its own importance depending on applications.

Why does increasing the magnetic flux in the main field of a d.c motor cause the armature current to reduce??
Is RTCC panel needs any control supply.
if there are six generators (3 gas CATT, one Jenbacher o1 MW each, and two nos Diesel 01 no 01 mw other 0.65mw EDGs ( say), 3 CAtt gas set have identical pole pitch,01mw EDG and Jenbacher gas Set have different pole pitch, how their power connection can be done to connect a common bus bar during installation. in short, how different pole pitched generators power connection can be done to connect a common busbar system through generators incomer ACBs.
can any one help me out by posting something related to rvnl interview for site engineer electrical.? what is the procedure? what kinda question they ask us? how long the interview goes? and any tips? and any thing you want to share?
Give the topology of current amplifier with current shunt feedback?
My switchgear busbar is rated at 2000A and just imagine the actual load on busbar is 1000A. From that busbar there are 10 outgoing feeders. Now the question is will the load be 1000A on each outgoing feeder or 100A per outgoing feeder. 2nd thing how do i calculate the load on individual feeder. Thanks for your time. Please provide some clarification on this issue.
