Line-to-Line RMS Voltage is the root mean square value of the average output voltage between any two lines (phases) in a three-phase system. It represents the effective voltage that would produce the same power dissipation in a resistive load.
The calculator uses the formula:
Where:
Explanation: This formula calculates the RMS voltage between two lines in a three-phase system based on the input voltage value.
Details: Accurate Line-to-Line RMS voltage calculation is crucial for power system analysis, motor control applications, and determining proper equipment ratings in three-phase electrical systems.
Tips: Enter the input voltage in volts. The value must be valid (voltage > 0).
Q1: What does RMS voltage represent?
A: RMS (Root Mean Square) voltage represents the equivalent DC voltage that would produce the same power dissipation in a resistive load.
Q2: When is line-to-line voltage used?
A: Line-to-line voltage is used in three-phase power systems to measure the voltage between any two phases of the system.
Q3: What is the relationship between line-to-line and phase voltage?
A: In a balanced three-phase system, line-to-line voltage is √3 times the phase voltage.
Q4: Why is the conversion factor 0.8165?
A: The factor 0.8165 is derived from the mathematical relationship between peak voltage and RMS voltage in specific waveform configurations.
Q5: Can this calculator be used for single-phase systems?
A: This specific formula is designed for three-phase systems. Single-phase systems use different calculations for RMS voltage.
