Here Leo, .. let me help you study ? :lol:

Pop Quiz:

1. Three phase systems may or may not have a neutral wire ?



2. Let

x=2\pi ft\,\!

where t is time and f is frequency.

Using x = ft the waveforms for the three phases are

V_{L1}=A\sin x\,\!

V_{L2}=A\sin (x-\frac{2}{3} \pi)

V_{L3}=A\sin (x-\frac{4}{3} \pi)

where A is the peak voltage and the voltages on L1, L2 and L3 are measured relative to the what ?

You have 10 minutes ....... :lol:

haha..nice, leonardo... i've got 5 officially passed... pre-design (failed it once!), materials & methods, lateral forces, structures, and construction docs... I'm waiting on results for mechanical/electrical that i took last week.. after my couple failures, i've taken 8 damn exams since january :-/ I've got a retake of site planning (no idea how i failed) scheduled for the first week of january.

good luck!
