Download Solution PDFAccording to Blondel’s theorem:
- When a system contains ‘N’ number of phases & ‘N+1’ wires, then ‘N’ number of watt-meters is required to calculate the total power of the system.
- When a system contains ‘N’ number of phases & ‘N’ wires, then ‘N-1’ number of watt-meters is required to calculate the total power of the system.
- In a 3-phase balanced and unbalanced star-connected system, two watt-meters are sufficient to measure the total power.
- But if a 3-phase star connected system is balanced then only one wattmeter is sufficient to measure the total power.
