HOW TO FIND OUT 1. LINE CURRENT, 2. PHASE CURRENT IN AN
ALTERNATOR / TRANSFORMER WHICH IS FEEDING A I)STAR LOAD ii)
DELTA LOAD, USING A CLAMP METER.

NORMALLY WHEN WE USE CLAMP METER IN A DG SET THEN WHAT DO
WE GET?? PHASE CURRENT OR LINE CURRENT.

Answer Posted / subrata sur

In clamp meter we get line current because phase current is
only inside the alternator.

Now for star load,
line current = phase current = clamp meter reading

and for delta load,
line current = clamp meter reading
phase current = clamp meter reading / 0.732
