What is Current Per Phase?

Current per phase refers to the amount of electrical current flowing through each phase in a multi-phase system. It is calculated by dividing the total current by the number of phases. This metric is important for designing and analyzing electrical systems to ensure balanced load distribution and efficient operation.

Example Calculations

Example 1:

Using the formula:

\[ CPP = \frac{300}{3} = 100 \text{ amps/phase} \]

Example 2:

Using the formula:

\[ CPP = \frac{450}{3} = 150 \text{ amps/phase} \]
