THREE-WIRE SYSTEM

Specialty Definition: THREE-WIRE SYSTEM

DomainDefinition

Mining

A voltage improvement system that consists of the series operation of two generators. One circuit of a mine is fed from one generator, and a second circuit is fed from the other generator. The mine track or return is common to both generators and is connected between the generators. This method provides high voltage for transmission of power, yet the individual circuits provide normal low-voltage power. In effect, this is the Edison three-wire system, wherein the rails form the neutral third wire. The third wire (mine track) carries only the unbalance between the loads onthe two separate circuits.
