Three Phase Formula

Today we are sharing a super quick tip with you.  The biggest error that most test takers make is when calculating a three phase formula.  A three phase system must have the voltage multiplied times a factor of 1.73.  (Or the square root of 3.)  Without getting into heavy math or complex electrical theory; three-phase voltages must be multiplied by 1.73 at all times.
