Hi, I have an issue and would like some help.
I have a 3 element heater connected in delta. 4.5KW, 9KW and 9KW. Heaters are powered by 480VAC.
I have measured the following impedance on the heater:
AB: 20.0 Ohms
BC: 27 Ohms
AC: 20.4 Ohms
I also measured line current (current clamp) and got the following readings:
A: 22.3
B: 30.7
C: 22.5.
Could anyone enlighten me as to how I could use these info and calculate the power of this heater assembly? Total power should be 22.5 KW but I cannot come up with the right numbers.
As a last request, could anyone post a link to a website where I could find useful info regarding 3-phase power and related calculations?
Thank you,
EE
