Why 3 Phase AC instead of Single Phase???

Hey All!
I drew the winner for the Lulzbot Mini Printer between all patrons and viewers who signed up AND a patron with the name of "Beautiful Machines" won!
Thanks everyone for being around!

10.3 😂😂😂

is it like a mini rotary phase converter but with dirty power and small

Probably the most entertaining science channel on the interweb ❤

That was a great video man. I'm a electrical engineer and It helped me refresh some of the concepts I learnt in college, and also I learn some other things too. It's also crazy how you make a shortcircuit almost every 2 minutes 😅

Sometimes I'm happy living in germany with our 3-phases (brown, black, gray + blue neutral and green-yellow grounding) wich every house gets.😅

This is my first time but you're genius

In Germany, we get all the phases, so we have the full version

Good job .......

Three phase can run single phase on each wire also. So, you can still power 120V equipment off of three phase.

More wiring, but should provide more efficiency.

Can you help me how to make free energy with 3 phrase ac motor with arduino uno? I only just used pwm but what types of step up transformar along with arduino uno without arduino uno hurting them.

Bro... Wheres your tamper resistant plugs in your residential home?

I nearly dropped my morning Chai tea ☕😔 when the first Boom 💥 happened 😅
Then i learned th leave the cup when he connects any thing.
But what a relief when the episode finished

Thank you for sharing such an amazing and hard to reach knowledge...very interesting!

And the motors, like 3 or 40 hrsprs will have a variable speed drive that soft starts by controlling the frequency the Hz so it gets full voltage but chop chop. Motors don't like to be started at low speed (low voltage) that's why fans always have off next to high. The sound of really big motors spooling up is fantastic. lol so random

As much as I like his explanations - the amount of bangs and f***s sometimes really is annoying and distracting.

Is there a bang/f*** free channel for all his knowledge?

Highly entertaining, this guy is great!

Thanks.

I love your way of explaining things. It makes sense, because youre not using fancy words.

You are hysterical, and I'm glad you're out there getting kids interested in electronics. Never did it on 120V but I cannot tell you how many times I've left my meter in amp mode and the probe in the wrong plug trying to check a voltage 🤣

Is it true that 220V is just two out of the three phases of three-phase? I was sure I'd heard that it was actually the result of a tapped transformer instead, with the phases in sync. Was I misinformed, or is that true in some places and not others?

❤❤❤

Jeez I had been wondering what was going on with 2 and 3-phase AC for the last 60 years and finally someone provided an explanation that I could understand.

I have a three-phase supply to my apartment and to my cottage. Means my induction hob can boil water in seconds and I could operate a drill rig for a borehole.

There is also a mechanical advantage to using three phase generators. With a single phase generator, there is an uneven load which varies sinusoidally which can place stress on the device. In contrast, a three phase generator, with a reasonably balances load across the phases, will have a roughly even torque loading, which helps with reducing stresses on the generator set and increases it's lifespan.

That happens in reverse too. A 3 phase motor will, all other things being equal, deliver a more even torque than a single phase motor.

The circuit diagram shown at the start of this movie is wrong. The 'phases' are the three coils… the conductors labelled 'phases' are, in fact, 'lines'!

I hope he is a Professor, because I've only watched this vid, but I can already say I'd love being a student of him.

We learned so much about canada today...
Cheers for Ohm's law put in practice!

Eh, on a long distance you would only need two wires, because you can split them up to the outlets at the house. (And you do this, too, with the 3 phase system.) I don't believe that this is the reason for 3 phases. ;-)

BTW: I'm pretty sure that in the EU it is forbidden to have different phases in one housing for regular outlets. When you need more phases at once (i. e. for the oven), you get special housings without a regular outlet.

Educating and entertaining!

I believe you have an error. Canada and USA send single phase to a home and use a split phase transformer to get a center tap and generate two hot legs at 120v each and 240v on the two hot lines.

tesla not invented 3 phase but polyphase with 2 wire/phase then 2 phase = 4 wire

Why not fourth phase now

this channel is so addictive❤❤❤❤©©

I cant be serious with those cable explosions…

Trump won

Why didn’t he just use the three phases coming out of the Controller?

In germany nearly every House and flat geht’s 3 Phasen

Is there a such thing as two phase.

I cringed when I saw that shot

So glad to see you still alive from random electric shocks😂

The AC DC battle. That would have been one big dxck swinging competition. Free Julian Assange.

your a mad scientist but your awesome

omg, why have i found this channel just now?

If the YT app had a "multiple thumbs up" option, Mehdi's videos would always get maximum thumbs.
