Question

A balanced 3-wire, 120/240V, single-phase circuit is connected so that the ungrounded conductors are from different transformer phases (Line 1 and Line 2). The current on the neutral conductor is _____ percent of the ungrounded conductor current.

Answer 1

`0\%`

Step-by-step explanation:

A 3-wire, 120/ 240 V circuit from a three-phase delta transformer contains two ungrounded conductors and one grounded conductor. The grounded conductor carries the unbalanced current when the circuit is not balanced.

A neutral conductor has the same equal potential between it and all ungrounded conductors of a 3-wire system.

The current on the neutral conductor is
`0\%` percent of the ungrounded conductor current.
