3 Phase 380V 50 Hz

[cjamesee]

What is the nomial phase-to-phase voltage for a 3 Phase 380V 50 Hz system? I'm assuming the incoming feed is a 3 wire system.

The system in question is located in Argentina and I am not familiar with systems outside the US.

380V, same as it would be for a 380V, 60Hz system.

Did you mean nominal or normal? And 380 IS the phase to phase voltage. If you are developing a 3ph 4 wire system the phase to neutral voltage is 220V, but that isn't what you asked. This is a common system in many areas of the world, just not in the US.

I've been asked to do research for US electrical equipment to be sent Argentina. Since I have no experience with foreign electrical configurations, I'm trying to research what would be needed to match Argentina's voltage sources with US equipment.

Any ideas for resources or references for standards in Argentina?

Thanks for the information.

380V / 50Hz is the 'old' European standard, although it is now 400V / 50Hz nominal as part of harmonisation across manufacturers as they are likely more numerous than indigenous Argentine manufacturers. Sorry I can't help on Argentine codes - obviously you'll need to comply with those.

If we learn from our mistakes I'm getting a great education!

Argentinian codes (IRAM) are based on IEC codes, and it's acepted the European 400V standard for equipment nominal voltage.
