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 / vivek

I WOULD LIKE TO CLARIFY THE DOUBTS OF MR ANANDHARAJ'S
COMMENTS IN ANSWER 8.. HE FAILED TO UNDERSTAND THE BASICS
OF ELECTRICITY THAT CURRENT ALWAYS FLOW IN A CLOSED LOOP SO
THERE IS NO QUESTION OF OPENING THE LOOP ...AND MOREOVER
WHEN USING CLAMP METER, YOU DONT NEED TO OPEN A CIRCUIT...
SO WHAT I MEANT BY "OPENING" IN ANSWER NO 2 WAS OPENING THE
ENCLOSURE OF THE SOURCE OR THE LOAD IN ORDER TO ACCESS THE
JUNCTION... I HOPE NOW MR ANANDHARAJ WOULD BE IN A BETTER
POSITION TO APPLY HIS RICH EXPERIENCE AND GUIDE A NOVICE
LIKE ME TO GAIN SOME PRACTICAL KNOWLEDGE.. THANKS FOR YOUR
INTEREST.
