    What is the difference between phase voltage and line voltage?

    Hello
    Phase voltage is the voltage of a given phase measured between the given phase and the neutral of the generator.

    The line voltage is the voltage between two different phases of the generator (grid).

    In Poland U phase = 230 V AC, and wired = 400 V AC.

    In other words: 230V*√3 ≈ 400V

    These are effective values.

    In that case, what is the definition of inter-wire voltage because I have just met such in the literature.

    Hello.
    Wire-to-wire, otherwise wire-to-phase or phase-to-phase.
    All these names denote the same thing, i.e. the voltage between the phases of the generator.

    gentlemen, I'm sorry but... The stupidity is that I can even measure these quantities, but it turns out that I don't know what it is. I looked at Orlik's book "Qualification exam ......." page 39

    IN
    Y
    if=IP,
    Up=√3Uf
    Reverse triangle

    So, taking into account what I wrote, please explain to me what is phase current, phase voltage, line voltage, line current.

    Because in a triangle we have a relationship
    Ip=√3If triangle
    if=Ip Y
    It will be more efficient to explain it on the magnitudes of the current IMHO.

    Do you think the author is still interested in the topic created 7 years ago? :sm9:

Topic summary

Phase voltage refers to the voltage measured between a single phase and the neutral point of a generator, while line voltage is the voltage measured between two different phases. In Poland, the standard phase voltage is approximately 230 V AC, leading to a line voltage of about 400 V AC, which can be calculated using the formula 230V * √3 ≈ 400V. The term "inter-wire voltage" is synonymous with wire-to-wire or phase-to-phase voltage, indicating the voltage between phases. Additionally, discussions included the relationships between phase current, phase voltage, line voltage, and line current, particularly in the context of Y (wye) configurations in electrical systems.
