Three phase power is not only used to deliver power through powerlines but is usually installed in larger commercial and industrial properties requiring much higher amounts of electricity. Three phase power achieves this through using multiple live wires adding their voltage together that delivers a greater and more economical supply. The added live wire increases the voltage to around 400-415 Volts. This makes it ideal for use with large-scale industrial equipment and heavy-duty machinery that require much larger amounts of power than the standard (single phase) 240 Volt appliances found in residential properties.
Some types of equipment that use three-phase power include the following:
Our experienced electricians deal primarily with commercial electrical work. This quite often requires the installation of three-phase power to the property along with the standard 240V supply. We not only design the wiring layout to suit the requirements of your business in the most economical way, but will also assist you in locating the best points for emergency stop buttons and other safety requirements.
Installing three phase supply to any building can be a costly exercise. We recommend that you consider carefully the implications of this step and whether you are able to achieve your goals through the use of standard single phase 240V supply and equipment.
If this is a necessary upgrade for your business or property then AJ & AJ electrical will assist you in making the transition as smoothly and quickly as possible to minimise your down-time and any additonal costs.
