Angular Symmetrical Components for Voltages (Line and Phase) are introduced in this blog. Now, It is applied to currents for simplification and extraction of sequence currents.
A. Star Effective Line Currents (SELC):
Quadratic Mean (RMS) of all Sequence Currents is referred as "Star Effective Line Current (SELC)". This Current is equal to the Quadratic Mean of all Line Currents. The power in unbalanced star connected system will be equal to the same delivered by balanced three phase system of "SEL Current".
B. Delta Effective Line Currents (DELC):
Effective magnitude of Positive and Negative Sequence currents is referred as "Delta Effective Line Current (DELC)". This current is equal to effective magnitude of Delta currents / Virtual Delta Currents.
C. Earth Tangent Angle for Currents (ETAC)
The Geometric angle (as shown in figure) between SELC and DELC represents the Zero sequence current which is related to Neutral current. So it is called as "Earth Tangent Angle for Currents (ETAC)". It is determined as Cosine Inverse of the ratio between DELC and SELC.
