About EssentialPhasor

EssentialPhasor is a powerful, interactive 3-phase electrical system diagram viewer developed by Will Gibson for metering technicians and engineers. It provides real-time phasor diagram visualisation for analysing voltage and current relationships across different 3-phase metering configurations.

The app supports multiple system types including LV 3-Phase 4-Wire, HV 3-Phase 4-Wire, and HV 3-Phase 3-Wire configurations, allowing for detailed analysis of phase angles and magnitudes. With built-in dark mode support and responsive design, EssentialPhasor works seamlessly on desktop and mobile devices.
