WHY WE GENERATE 3 PHASE POWER ONLY AND NOT 4 OR 5 OR 6 PHASE??? PLS REPLY...

Answer / ziyad

there is no engineering reason for that.
the reason is economical.
since they start generating by three phase and the following
designs was based on the first models, and it is difficult
to change the system that already exist so they continue to
design three phase generators and transmission systems.
