How to compute the load of your phase converter?

1 Answer

Answer :

A lot of people don’t understand the main function of this smallbut very useful device called a phase converter. This device wasmade for the purpose of changing single electrical power into amultiphase electrical power. There are different types of phaseconverters; some change electric power from single to double, butthe most common one is the one which produces three phases ofelectrical power coming from just a single source.It may sound like a complex and mind blowing thing to do, butyes, physics has made it possible. There are a lot of ready-madephase converters on the market, but aside from the fact that theymay be costly, there is simply a sense of pride when you can createone of your own. Oftentimes people tend to step back when trying tocreate electrical equipment, but little do the
