Voltage Division Ratio Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Voltage Division Ratio = Line Voltage/Potentiometer Voltage
R_d = V_l/V_p
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Voltage Division Ratio - Voltage Division Ratio is a factor that accounts for any scaling or attenuation in the measurement setup.
Line Voltage - (Measured in Volt) - Line Voltage is the voltage measured between any two lines in a three-phase circuit.
Potentiometer Voltage - (Measured in Volt) - Potentiometer Voltage is defined as is a variable resistor that can be used to create an adjustable voltage divider.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

How many volts can a potentiometer handle?

If the potentiometer is rated at 1 Watt, you can only apply a maximum of 100 volts. I.e 10 mA. That applied to the voltage across the full 10000 ohms. That also means that you cannot pass more than 10 mA into the Wiper.
