Why only 1ph,2ph,3ph supplies are universally used?? Why not 4ph or 5ph??..

Answer / ibrahim hassib

When the generator is fitted with 3 windings equally spaced
at 120 degree, the resultant 3-ph electric power is 1.73
times the same electric power produced if you fit the
generator with one winding for the same rotation of the
machine. If we would add more windings the increase in
electrical power output will not yield a significant
increase in electric power to justify the cost of the
additional windings and the associated complexity of design.
So, it was universally agreed that fitting the generator
with three windings is the most economical solution and the
three phase power science was born from that point on ..

Answer / kcp

three phase supply only produce rotating magnetic field.then
only the operation occurs depending on electromagnetic
induction.and also if we use 4phase no. of conductors will
incresase and results in increased cost

i am swathi, b.tech 4th year. In smps(switched mode power supply)we are using diodes,mosfets,igbts for controling of current. And my question is why we did not use thyristors(scr)? it is also act as a switch,then what is the drawback of scr as compared to above transisters> if we use the scr,then what is happening ? plz give reply as soon as possible bcoz i am doing project on smps. plz frnds i want ans for that. if anybody know the ans plz send to my e-mail id /swathi.tadakapally@gmail.com/
