Why do we generate 3 Phase AC Supply? It is possible to
generate 4 Phase and 5 Phase explain it?

Answer Posted / mani

we can not generat 4 phse , 5 phse because of phase angle .
if we generat 4 phase we can not make same pahse angle
betwen the phase that is why.

ex.for 3 phase, phase angle diff. ab=120,bc=120, ca=120.

for 4 phse (abcd ) ab=90, bc=90,cd=90,ad=90 but
ac=180,ad ,bd also like that that is why we cnat generat 4
phase and some other else.......

When we use air circuit breaker, it has O/L protection ,time delay SC protection, Instataneous SC protection & ground fault protection. They all have some setting range. But what is the suitable/allowable setting for the above protection which will be safe for the equipment? For example-O/L protection setting have a range of (0.4,0.45,0.5,0.55,0.6,0.65,0.7,0.8,0.9,1.0)xIn Time delay SC protection have a range of (1.25,1.5,2,3,4,6,8,10,12)xIn Time delay setting is 0.02,0.1,0.2,0.3,0.4 Instataneous setting is fixed to 20xIn Gound fault setting is given 100A,300A,600A,900A,1200A This setting are for 2500A ACB. So what will be the basic allowable setting for the above protection? is there any formulae to calculate this<
