The formula to use is, phase voltage /1.73 = phase to neutral (ground) voltage.
CommentThere is no such thing as a 'phase to phase', or 'phase to neutral' voltage. The correct terms are 'line to line' and 'line to neutral'. So the above answer should read: line voltage/1.73= line to neutral voltage = phase voltage.
It will be 220 x the square root of 3
A single-phase cable will have a line and a neutral conductor and, possibly, but not necessarily, an earth (ground) conductor. A high-voltage three-phase cable will have three line conductors. A low-voltage three-phase cable is likely to have three line conductors and a neutral conductor.
Phase to phase voltage is 1.732 (the square root of 3) times the phase to star point (neutral) line voltage.e.g. if the line voltage is 220Vphase voltage = 1.732x220 = 380V (approx)Additional AnswerYou might also like to know that the line voltage leads the phase voltage by 30 electrical degrees. And, incidentally, the correct expressions are 'line-to-line' not 'phase-to-phase', and 'line-to-neutral' not 'phase-to-neutral' (think about it, a line voltage is measured from the junctions between adjacent phases, so they cannot be 'phase to phase'!)
The current is the same in the three live wires. The voltage can be described as the line voltage (phase to neutral) or the phase voltage (phase to phase) which is larger by a factor of sqrt(3). So a line voltage of 230 v corresponds to a phase voltage of 400 v.
From line-to-line (any two of the three leads) voltage or 'line voltage', the voltage is 208 V. The line-to-neutral (one of the three leads and the neutral conductor), or 'phase voltage', is 120 V.
The standard three-phase distribution transformer in the UK is a delta/star connection with a rated primary line voltage of 11 kV, and a nominal secondary line voltage of 400 V, giving a secondary phase voltage of 230 V.So, the secondary provides a three-phase, four-wire, system comprising three line conductors and a neutral conductor. The line-to-line (line voltage) voltage is 400 V and the line-to-neutral (phase voltage) voltage is 230 V.There are not 'three types' of supply obtained from this arrangement.
The voltage in a three phase delta system is stated by the phase to phase voltage. If it is a wye connection the phase to neutral is represented by the two voltages. e.g. 120/208, 240/415, 277/480, 347/600, 7225/12500, etc.

To calculate phase-to-earth voltage on a 11 kV system, divide the voltage by the square root of 3 (1.732). So, the phase-to-earth voltage would be around 6350 volts.
In a distribution transformer's star-connected secondary, the common point of connection is called the 'star point' and is connected to earth. The star point then provides the neutral connection for the transformer secondary, providing a return path for any unbalanced currents due to an unbalanced three-phase load.This arrangement provides a four-wire distribution system, comprising three line conductors and one neutral conductor (in addition, there are various methods of providing an earth connection to consumers). The line-to-line voltage is called a line voltage (in the UK, 400 V), while a line-to-neutral voltage is called a phase voltage (in the UK, 230 V). The line voltage being 1.732 x phase voltage.
In a 3-phase system, the line-to-line voltage is √3 times the line-to-neutral voltage. So, if each phase is 220 VAC (line-to-neutral), the line-to-line voltage will be √3 x 220 VAC ≈ 380 VAC, not 440 VAC. It's important to use the correct calculations to avoid confusion and ensure the proper operation of equipment in a 3-phase system.
The formula you are looking for is - phase voltage/1.73 = phase to neutral voltage.
If you are referring a common lead as meaning a neutral of a three phase system, the three phase voltage has to be 208 volts. This type of connection is in a wye configuration. It is found by this formula 208/1.73 = 120 volts. This connection will supply 120 volts between any one of the three supply legs and the grounded neutral.
From line-to-line (any two of the three leads) voltage or 'line voltage', the voltage is 208 V. The line-to-neutral (one of the three leads and the neutral conductor), or 'phase voltage', is 120 V.
To reduce neutral-to-earth voltage in a three-phase system, ensure that all equipment is properly grounded, balanced loads evenly across all phases, and verify that there are no loose connections or faulty wiring that could cause voltage imbalances. Installing surge protection devices can also help mitigate voltage spikes that can contribute to neutral-to-earth voltage issues.
