2. Three-phase electric power - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-phase_electric_power

   Three-phase transformer with four-wire output for 208Y/120 volt service: one wire for neutral, others for A, B and C phases. Three-phase electric power (abbreviated 3ϕ [1]) is a common type of alternating current (AC) used in electricity generation, transmission, and distribution. [2]

3. High-leg delta - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-leg_delta

   The phase-to-neutral voltage of two of the phases will be half of the phase-to-phase voltage. The remaining phase-to-neutral voltage will be √ 3 /2 the phase-to-phase voltage. So if A–B, B–C and C–A are all 240 volts, then A–N and C–N will both be 120 volts, but B–N will be 208 volts.

4. Split-phase electric power - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Split-phase_electric_power

   In Europe, three-phase 230/400 V is most commonly used. However, 130/225 V, three-wire, two-phase electric power discontinued systems called B1 are used to run old installations in small groups of houses when only two of the three-phase high-voltage conductors are used. The phase shift in Europe is 120°, as is the case with three-phase current.

5. Mathematics of three-phase electric power - Wikipedia

   For example, balanced two-phase power can be obtained from a three-phase network by using two specially constructed transformers, with taps at 50% and 86.6% of the primary voltage. This Scott T connection produces a true two-phase system with 90° time difference between the phases.

6. Delta-wye transformer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delta-wye_transformer

   A delta-wye transformer is a type of three-phase electric power transformer design that employs delta-connected windings on its primary and wye/star connected windings on its secondary. A neutral wire can be provided on wye output side. It can be a single three-phase transformer, or built from three independent single-phase units.

7. Polyphase system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyphase_system

   One voltage cycle of a three-phase system. A polyphase system (the term coined by Silvanus Thompson) is a means of distributing alternating-current (AC) electrical power that utilizes more than one AC phase, which refers to the phase offset value (in degrees) between AC in multiple conducting wires; phases may also refer to the corresponding terminals and conductors, as in color codes.
