Calculating Phase & Line Current

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on calculating phase and line current for three resistors connected to a 400 V three-phase supply in both Star and Delta configurations. The user expresses difficulty in applying theoretical knowledge to practical problems, seeking step-by-step guidance rather than just formulas. Responses indicate that while resources are available, the user needs assistance in understanding how to implement the formulas to derive actual values. The conversation highlights the importance of practical application in learning electro-technical concepts. Overall, the thread emphasizes the need for clearer explanations in solving real-world electrical engineering problems.

I'm studying for a Level 3 Diploma in Electro technical science. My tutor had a hard time teaching me what I need to know in order to answer this question;

Calculate the phase and line current when three resistors each having a resistance of 15Ω are connected, to a 400 V three-phase supply, in
A) Star (Wye)
B) Delta

Could someone show me the steps involved in solving this please.

Thanks for your attempt, however this is just as useless as my tutor. I don't need help finding information. I need help applying the information to a real scenario. The formulae's in the link you gave me show the relationship between Phase/Line current. What I'm having trouble with is actually getting a value in the first place.
 
Thankyou! Sorry for posting this in the wrong place.
