Electrical Circuit :
An electrical circuit is a closed conducting path through which electric current either flows or is intended to flow.

Electrical Network :
An electrical network is an interconnection of electrical elements such as resistors, inductors, capacitors, transmission lines, voltage sources, current sources, and switches. It may not be a closed path.Thats why an electrical circuit is a network but not vice versa.

Bilateral Circuit :
A circuit whose properties remains same in either directions is called bilateral circuit.

Loop :
A closed electric circuit is called a loop. It may or may not contain any closed path in it.

Mesh :
A mesh is a set of branches that forms a closed path in a network and which contains no closed path in it. A mesh can be called as a loop but not vice versa.

All about single phase to three phase converter works? Electrical tutorials

If you are living in the areas where the supply is single phase electric line you tend to be discouraged when you have an appliances that needs a 3 phase line. Don't lose hope it is because there are huge Phase converters are used to run 3-phase equipment on single phase power. There are several types of 3 phase converters - rotary, static and digital solid state, and drive type inverters, or frequency drives- to name a few. They can all be used to convert single phase electricity to 3-phase power. They are very commonly used to power 3-phase commercial and industrial grade equipment and electric motors. Focusing on the most familiar 3 phase power converters, static and rotary. You will find its defination and its differentiation so that you will buy a phase converter that fits On you. How does a rotary phase converter work? is actually a rotating transformer. Through transformer action a phase converter splits off and phase shifts a portion of the single-phase supply from the uti...

The Difference between single phase and three phase system?

By Nirmal -
Phase is the differnce between waves, through which the current flows. 1 phase consists of 3 wires , 1 phase 1 neutral and 1 stay wire. 3 phase consists of 5 wires , 3 phases(R, Y, B), 1 neutral and 1 stay wire. In most of the transformers 3 phases are mostly used except the road side transformers because the voltage of 3 phase is 440v. In domestic appliances 1 phase is used because the voltage required is 230v 1. Single phase voltage is compare then three phase voltage is very low for ex- 1 phase 240v < 3 phase 440v. 2. Three phase can make rotating magnatic field but single phase can not make rotating magnatic field. 3. In three phase is phase sequence but single phase is not phase sequence.

Indoor 1. Only dry type transformer shall be installed inside residential./ commercial buildings. While using oil filled transformers certain steps are there to be followed: a. it must be installed OUTDOOR only. b.Easy access of fire station vehichles. c.the transformer room/building must be 1.5 mtr away from the residence/commercial building d. the substation must be weather proof, walls must have minimum thickness of 230mm of thick RCC, Fire resistant wall must be there. e. outside corporation area minimum distance between transformer and substation must be 6m. 2. dry type transformer must be installed above ground floor. 3.ABSF/VCB ust be provided at primary side. 4. Minimum cable size at primary must be 150sq.mm XLPE (aluminium) or 70 sq.mm XLPE (Aluminium) if backup fuse is provided. 5.Oil filled TRFR must be segregated from HT and MV switchgear. 6.oil drainage facility/soak pits must be provided for oil filled transformers if oil quantity is above 2000 litres. ...
