A07Q - Three Phase Circuits

This document is an assignment for a basic electrical engineering course on three-phase circuits. It contains 10 multiple choice questions covering topics like phase sequence, balanced and unbalanced three-phase systems, generation of three-phase EMFs, advantages of three-phase over single-phase systems, phase and line voltages and currents, phasor diagrams for star and delta connections, and methods for measuring three-phase power. It also contains problems from a textbook for students to check answers to. The assignment must be completed and submitted by a given due date, and students are responsible for independently answering any questions from the material.

Date of issue: 28 Mar., 2015 | Submission Due: 06 Apr., 2015
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Instructions:
ANSWER NEATLY AND LEGIBLY on A4 sheets only and not in sheets torn from a book.
Sketch diagrams wherever relevant. Explain your notations explicitly and clearly.
An incomplete assignment is not acceptable for submission.
Once you submit your assignment, you will be expected to answer all the questions there
INDEPENDENTLY. You may be asked to answer any question of the assignment in the class.

Part-A: All students are required to answer all questions.


Q1. In a 3-phase system, explain (a) phase sequence; (b) positive sequence; and (c) negative sequence.
Q2. What are (a) balanced and (b) unbalanced 3-phase systems? Sketch the waveforms for a balanced
system of positive sequence quantities. Sketch the phasor diagrams for both positive and negative
sequences.
Q3. Explain briefly the generation of 3-phase emf-s.
Q4. What are the advantages of 3-phase systems over 1-phase systems?
Q5. What are (a) phase and line voltages; and (b) phase and line currents?
Q6. In a balanced star, (a) identify the phase and line voltages and show how phase voltages are related to
line voltages; and (b) identify the phase and line currents and show how phase currents are related to line
currents. Sketch a phasor diagram for voltages.
Q7. In a balanced delta, (a) identify the phase and line voltages and show how phase voltages are related
to line voltages; and (b) identify the phase and line currents and show how phase currents are related to
line currents. Sketch a phasor diagram for currents.
Q8. In a balanced system of supply and load, find expressions for the complex power consumed with (a)
star load; and (b) delta load.
Q9. Explain the two-wattmeter method of measuring 3-phase power. State the NECESSARY
CONDITION.
Q10. How can the power factor in a 3-phase load be measured by the two-wattmeter method?
