why we use to transmit the power in three phases intead of single phase ?..

Answer / phanendra babu

there are so many reasons
1.generation is 3ph. so convertion is difficult
2.losses will be more in single phase system
3.equipment cost will be increased
4.copper cost increased for example for 3ph sys 3wires are
enough to transmit but for 3 single phases 6 wires are req.

Answer / guest

The power generation in india is 11kV 3phase,50Hz & vch is
economical (as per standard)
After genration v have different voltage levels for
consumers(Transmission to Distribution).
in distribution the voltage is steepped down to 440v
because different loads r there for domestic and industrial
needs.
so v can take tappings for any phase for consumers..
