Generally we denote power in 'p',voltage in 'v'but why
can't we denote current in 'c' instead of I.

Answer Posted / madhav kattungal

The symbol I was chosen for current because early scientists
were used to refer electric current as the intensity of the
electricity in a wire.

Hi Suppose we have a wye/wye transformer which is grounded at both sides,in this situation, do we have ay ground transformer? in other words, ground transformer can do any thing more (while we have nuetral wire in both sides)? As the last question, what about 3rd harmonic? we have two choices: first using wye/delta transformer + ground transformer and second using wye/wye earthed connection.in the former choice, we dont have 3rd harmoonic at the secondary side but what about Yn/yn conection? do we suffer from 3rd harmonic in the Yn/yn connection?
