3 Phase Calculator3 phase calculator is an easy-to-use online tool to quickly determine the parameters of balanced three-phase circuits in both Delta and Star configurations. A balanced 3-phase circuit has the same voltages, currents, and power factors in all three phases. This tool uses the following equations to determine voltages and currents for Star connection:
Vline = √3 × Vph This tool uses the following equations to determine voltages and currents for Delta connection:
Vline = Vph The apparent power (S) for both delta and star connections can be calculated using the following formulas:
S = 3 × Vph × Iph, The active power (P) in both star and delta connections can be calculated using the following formulas:
P = S × PF where: PF (power factor) = cos φ. φ is the phase angle (PA) – the angle of lead or angle of lag of the current's phase with respect to the voltage's phase. The reactive power (Q) for both delta and star connections can be calculated using the following formulas:
Q = S × sin φ You might also find helpful: Circuit Breaker Size Calculator. 3 phase calculator - a simple online tool for electriciansFrequently Asked QuestionsWhy students & professionals need the 3-phase calculator?Three-phase power calculations are essential in industrial, commercial, and electrical engineering — but the formulas can be confusing and error-prone when done manually.

What is a three-phase power system? A three-phase system uses three AC voltages, each phase shifted by 120°, to deliver more efficient and stable power.
What’s the difference between single-phase and three-phase power? Line Voltage is the electrical potential between any two conductors in a three-phase system. Phase Voltage is the potential between any single conductor and the neutral point. In a Wye (Star) connection, Line Voltage is √3 times the Phase Voltage. Three-phase power delivers higher efficiency, smoother operation, and more power capacity compared to single-phase systems.
Can this calculator be used for motors? Yes. It’s commonly used to estimate current, power, and load behavior in three-phase motors.
How does Power Factor affect my 3-phase calculation? Power Factor (PF) represents the efficiency of the electrical system. A lower PF means more current is required to provide the same amount of real power (kW), which can lead to higher utility costs and the need for larger equipment.
