Spanish term or phrase: Circuitos sin neutro
The chapter is "Modelización del receptor" and the article is about three-phase electrical systems with unbalanced voltages. The sentence I'm having trouble with is:

"Para los circuitos desequilibrados, lineales, sin neutro (a tres hilos), la potencia instantánea se expresa como..."

Unbalanced, linear and ??? circuits.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Explanation:
you could also say:

with no neutral point.

I was just wondering if you've included the commas in the right place because if there is a comma after "lineales" then it means that there are three circuits and one of them has no neutral point. If there isn't a comma after "lineales" then it means that neither the "desequilibrados nor the lineales" have a neutral point.

Yes, you´re probably right. The author uses commas all over the place and that´s what confused me. Thanks for clarifying it for me.

All the best
