faasivõrgus

Faasivõrgus refers to a type of electrical power distribution system. It is a fundamental concept in alternating current (AC) power systems, where electrical energy is transmitted and distributed using multiple alternating currents that are out of phase with each other. The most common type of faasivõrgus is the three-phase system.

In a three-phase system, three AC currents are generated and transmitted, each differing in phase by 120 degrees. This arrangement offers several advantages over single-phase systems, including more efficient power transmission and the ability to power large motors directly without the need for special starting mechanisms. The power delivery in a three-phase system is also more constant and smooth compared to single-phase.

The conductors in a faasivõrgus are typically referred to as phases. In a three-phase system, there are usually three phase conductors and sometimes a neutral conductor. The voltage between any two phase conductors is higher than the voltage between a phase conductor and the neutral. This flexibility allows for the supply of different voltage levels to various appliances and equipment.

Faasivõrgus is widely used for electricity generation, transmission, and distribution worldwide. It is the standard for supplying power to industrial facilities, commercial buildings, and even residential areas with high power demands. The design and operation of faasivõrgus require careful engineering to ensure safety, reliability, and efficiency in the delivery of electrical power.
