3-phase power rating in industries 2012/2/14 14:59
what is the 3phase voltage levels in japan for commercial/industrial. Like in USA we have 1P 120V but 3P 480V 60Hz. what is it in Japan?

Voltages shown below are nominal voltages.

what is the 3-phase voltage levels in japan for commercial/industrial

200V, 50Hz or 60Hz, 3-phase 3-wire.

A list in Japanese is available.
http://www.fujielectric.co.jp/technica/shohin/33/pdf/tebiki_4.pdf
Japan is shown at the top of Region #1; USA is shown at the top of Region #3.
Electric power for home appliances is explained in the middle;
Electric power for factory uses is explained to the right.

[Electric power in Japan]

Frequency is either 50Hz (east Japan including Tokyo, Sendai and Sapporo)
or 60Hz (west Japan including Nagoya, Osaka, Takamatsu, Hiroshima, Fukuoka, Naha),
depending on power companies.

# For home appliances
: Single-phase 3-wire,
100V (using live and neutral wires) / 200V (using live and live wires).
: Most home appliances are designed only for 100V.
# For factory uses
: 3-phase 3-wire, 200V.
