Three houses in a small village are supplied from a 400 V 50 Hz three-phase pole-mounted transformer through a four-wire overhead line. Each house is connected between a different line and neutral. Unfortunately, the neutral wire in the overhead line is accidently broken just after the transformer and before the house connections. Given that the house on line 1 has a 10.5 kW shower running, the house on line 2 has a 2.5 kW cooker oven switched on and the house on line 3 is using a 2 kW electric kettle, what voltage will each house receive?
Three-Phase Transformers
Three-segment transformers are a type of transformer used to transform voltages of electrical systems into three ranges. Two type transformers are shell-type transformer and core type transformer. In brief, it could be described because of the exquisite kinds of configurations.
Transformer
Ever since electricity has been created, people have started using it in its entirety. We see many types of Transformers in the neighborhoods. Some are smaller in size and some are very large. They are used according to their requirements. Many of us have seen the electrical transformer but they do not know what work they are engaged in.
