How does a rotary three Phase Converter compare with a solid three phase line?
A three Phase Converter is a manufactured device that comes closest to a solid three phase line. In comparison to an open delta three phase system the three Phase Converter is equal and every bit as good. ***** Against other solid three phase systems, a three Phase Converter is merely the best substitute. Never-the-less, a solid three phase is often not economically feasible nor readily available. For short seasonal loads or small loads, it is generally impractical. ***** The three Phase Converter cost is often just a fraction of the cost of extending a three phase line, whether a few hundred feet or many miles. Cost of operation on a single phase line is invariably less than on solid three phase. Rate costs are less, with no demand or power factor penalties. ***** Three Phase Converter, being a rotary type, is a three- phase distribution system in which a variety of motors can be operated individually or simultaneously, just as though connected to a three phase line. ***** As three Ph
