What is the principle behind measuring power in 3 phase systems using coils?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on understanding current induction in coils placed around energized conductors to measure power in three-phase systems. It emphasizes the application of the Induction Law to explain how coils can serve as measuring elements. The relationship between voltage and current in power measurement is highlighted, affirming that power is calculated as the product of voltage and current (P = V*I). Participants seek resources to deepen their understanding of these principles. Overall, the conversation aims to clarify the role of coils in power measurement within three-phase systems.

Can anyone point me to a good site that explains current induction, specifically when a coil is placed around an energized, current carrying conductor? I would like to understand this principle to understand how power can measured in 3 phase power systems by using coils as a measuring element.

Try this: Induction Law[/url].

Power is then just V*I, like for any other circuit.

Thread 'Motional EMF in Faraday disc, co-rotating magnet axial mean flux'
So here is the motional EMF formula. Now I understand the standard Faraday paradox that an axis symmetric field source (like a speaker motor ring magnet) has a magnetic field that is frame invariant under rotation around axis of symmetry. The field is static whether you rotate the magnet or not. So far so good. What puzzles me is this , there is a term average magnetic flux or "azimuthal mean" , this term describes the average magnetic field through the area swept by the rotating Faraday...
