EXPERIMENT NO. 1

AIM: Verification of Kirchhoff’s laws.

SIGNIFICANCE: These laws are applicable in the analysis of almost all the electrical and electronic circuits.

APPRATUS: 1) Connecting wires,

2) 4mm patch cords,

3) Kirchhoff’s laws kit,

4) Digital Multimeter – 3 nos.

5) Regulated DC power supplies

THEORY:

THE KIRCHHOFF’S VOLTAGE LAW

It states that “the algebric Sum of the voltages aroud closed loop is zero”.

IR DROP:- Whenever we move in the direction of current there is a drop in voltage,

since the current always flows from point at higher potential to the point at lower

potential. Hence Voltage drop in the current direction is taken as negative and vice-

versa.

SIGN CONVENTIONS:

If we move from negative terminal of source to positive terminal, there is a voltage

rise. Therefore it is to be considered positive. If we move from +ve terminal to –ve

terminal of voltage source, there is voltage drop. Therefore it is to be considered as –ve

B) THE KIRCHHOFF’S CURRENT LAW (KCL)

It states that “At any instant the algebraic sum of all the currents entering or leaving a

node is zero”.

CIRCUIT DIAGRAM:

SPACE FOR CIRCUIT DIAGRAM (IF THERE IS CHANGE IN DIAGRAM GIVEN ABOVE):

PROCEDURE:

A) For Kirchhoff’s Voltage law:

1) Connect the power supply cord of the kit to the socket. 2) Connect variable dc source in the circuit 1 of Kirchhoff’s voltage law. 3) Switch on the supply and measure voltage across all the three resistances i.e R1, R2, and R3 with

the help of multimeter of figure 1. Also find out the polarity across each resistor i.e whether there is a voltage rise or voltage drop and mark the positive and negative sign sign across each resistor. This you can done with the help of multimeter, if the meter displays reading without any sign that means the point at which red wire has been connected is positive and point at which black wire has been connected is negative. And if the meter displays reading with negative sign before it that means, the point at which red wire has been connected is at negative and the point at which black wire has been connected is at positive. So, now mark the positive and negative signs across each resistors in the circuit diagram.

4) Note down the readings of voltages across all the resistors in the observation table. 5) Note down 3 more readings in the same manner as described above by varying the supply

voltage level. 6) Verify kirchhoff’s voltage law for one or two readings, by writing down KVL equation and verify it

in the space provided for calculations.

B) For Kirchhoff’s Current law:

1) Connect the power supply cord of the kit to the socket. 2) Connect variable dc source in the circuit 2 of Kirchhoff’s current law. 3) Switch on the supply and measure current through all the three resistances i.e R1, R2, and R3 or

through all the three branches with the help of multimeter(for this set multimeter on 10A range). Also find out the direction of current through each resistors. This you can done with the help of multimeter, if the meter displays reading without any sign that means that the current is flowing from red to black wire or in the direction of red to black. And if the meter displays reading with negative sign before it that means, the current is flowing from black to red wire or in the direction of black to red. Mark the direction of current in the figure 2 by arrow in that branch in the direction of current

4) Note down the readings of current through all the resistors in the observation table. 5) Note down 3 more readings in the same manner as described above by varying the supply

voltage level. 6) Verify kirchhoff’s current law for one or two readings, by writing down KCL equation and verify it

in the space provided for calculations.

EXPERIMENT NO. 2

AIM: Verification of Superposition Theorem.

SIGNIFICANCE: Network theorems are used to speed up the analysis of circuits. This theorem is very

useful in the analysis of electric circuits containing more than one source.

APPRATUS: 1) 2mm Patch cords,

2) Digital Multimeter,

3) Superposition Theorem Kit.

THEORY:

Statement: Superposition theorem states that "In any linear bilateral network containing two or more sources, the

response in any element is equal to the algebraic sum of the responses caused by individual sources acting alone, while

the other sources are non-operative i.e., while considering the effect of individual sources, other ideal voltage sources

and ideal current sources in the network are replaced by short circuit and open circuit across their terminals”.

EXPLANATION:

1. Select only one source and replace all other sources by there internal resistances. (If the source is the ideal current

source replace it by open ckt. if the source is the ideal voltage source replaces it by short ckt.)

2. Find the current and its direction through the desired branch.

3. Add all the branch currents to obtain the actual branch current

CIRCUIT DIAGRAM:


PROCEDURE:

For branch c-d:

1) Connect the power supply cord of the kit in the socket.

2) Connect 12 V source in branch a-b i.e +12V at upper point and ground at the lower point in

branch a-b with the help of 2mm patch cords.

3) Connect 5 V source in branch g-h i.e +5V at upper point and ground at the lower point in branch

g-h with the help of 2mm patch cords.

4) Now short the open path in branch e-f with the help of patch cord.

5) Connect milliammeter in branch c-d.

6) Switch on the supply and note down the value and direction of the current in branch c-d. Mark

this direction in the diagram. This current will be Icd

7) Now replace 12 V source with a short with patch cord and keep only 5 V source active. Again

measure the value and note down direction of current in the branch c-d. this current will be Icd’.

If the direction of current changes mark the direction same as before but note down reading with

negative sign (draw another diagram for this condition).

8) Now connect 12 V source in the circuit replace 5 V source with a short. Again measure the value

and note down direction of current in the branch c-d. this current will be Icd’’. If the direction of

current changes mark the direction same as before but note down reading with negative sign

(draw another diagram for this condition).

9) Take the algebraic summation of Icd’ and Icd’’ and compare it with Icd, both the values should

come same. Do the calculation and verify superposition theorem.

For branch e-f:

Repeat the procedure as written above for branch e-f. for this connect milliammeter in the

branch e-f and short the branch c-d.

EXPERIMENT NO. 4

AIM: Verification of Maximum Power Transfer Theorem.

SIGNIFICANCE: Network theorems are used to speed up the analysis of circuits. This is very

important theorem for analyzing amplifier electronic circuits.


2) Digital Multimeters,


THEORY:

DC Circuit:

The maximum power transfer theorem states that “maximum power is delivered from a source

resistance to a load resistance when the load resistance is equal to the thevenin’s resistance as seen

from load terminals.”

RTH = RL is the condition required for maximum power transfer.

AC Circuit:

a. The maximum power transfer theorem states that maximum power is delivered from a

source impedance to load impedance when the load impedance is equal to the complex

conjugate of the thevenin’s impedance as seen from load terminals.

b. The maximum power transfer theorem states that maximum power is delivered from a

source impedance to load resistance when the load resistance is equal to the magnitude of

the thevenin’s resistance as seen from load terminals.”

CIRCUIT DIAGRAM:

the + terminal of DC Voltmeter and 4 to –ve terminal. It is the required value of Thevenin's

equivalent voltage (VTH).

3) Disconnect the patch cord between terminals 1 to +12V and Gnd to Gnd.

4) Connect test point 1 & Gnd (of circuit) so as to replace source by its internal

resistance (assuming it negligible).

5) Measure resistance between terminals 2 & 4 using multimeter. It is the required value of

Thevenin's equivalent resistance RTH.

6) Switch off the kit and set the value of RL less than RTH by connecting ohmmeter (multimeter)

between terminals 2 and 3.

7) Now connect ammeter (multimeter) between terminals 2 and 3, voltmeter between

SIGNIFICANCE:


2)

4)

5)

THEORY:

A RLC series network is said to be in resonance when the applied voltage and current are

in phase and the frequency at which this phenomena occurs is known as resonance frequency fr. Resonance

occurs when inductive reactance is equal to capacitive reactance i.e. XL = XC.

Resonant frequency fr =

∏√

At resonance the impedance is pure resistance .At resonance frequency the current in

the circuit is maximum which is given by Imax.

BAND WIDTH: A band of frequencies at which the current is 1√2

times its maximum value. At that

instant the power delivered to the circuit is half of the power at resonance. Hence they are called as

half power frequencies f1 and f2. The frequency f1 is termed as lower cut off frequency and f2 is termed as

upper cut off frequency. And hence the difference between the two half power frequencies is known as

Band-width.

B.W = f2 - f1

QUALITY FACTOR: The ratio between resonance frequency fr to bandwidth B.W. It is also given as the ratio of

capacitor or inductor voltage at resonance to supply voltage.

Q factor =

EXPERIMENT NO. 10

AIM: Measurement of power and power factor in a single phase ac circuit.

SIGNIFICANCE: i) Active power can be measured for any type of load. ii) Power factor and Reactive power can be calculated if we also measure voltage across and current flowing through the load.

APPRATUS: 1) Connecting wires, 2) Ammeter (0-5A) – 1nos. 3) Voltmeter (0-300V) – 1nos. 4) Wattmeter (10A, 300V) – 1 nos. 5) Load bank. 6) Decade resistance, capacitance, inductance box – 1 each. 7) Autotransformer.

THEORY:

The active power or average power or real power in any single phase load can be measured with the help of dynamometer type wattmeter. The wattmeter contains two coils current coil and pressure or voltage coil. Current coil (CC) is connected in series with the load and pressure coil (PC) is connected in parallel with the load. Wattmeter has four terminals M, L, C, V. The terminal M is connected to mains supply, terminal L is connected on the load side, terminal V is connected to the other end of the load and terminals M and C are short circuited. If we also connect the ammeter and voltmeter along with the wattmeter, we can also measure the voltage across the load and current through it and the product of voltage and current will give apparent power (VI). After knowing active and apparent power we can easily calculate power factor of the load.

CIRCUIT DIAGRAM:


PROCEDURE:

1) Connect the circuit as shown in the circuit diagram using connecting wires and the measuring instruments.

2) Keep the dimmerstat at minimum position and gradually increase the value of voltage at one level by looking at voltmeter.

3) Initially keep the switch of load bank open, at this time current and power will be zero. Take the reading of all the three meters.

4) Now close the switch of load bank, and increase the load gradually by closing one switch at a time.

5) Every time when you increase the load, adjust the voltage to its initial value using autotransformer, if it gets changed.

6) Note down the reading of all the meters, every time when you increase the load by closing one or two switch at a time.

7) Calculate power and power factor using above given formula.

EXPERIMENT NO. 11

AIM: To study starting of dc shunt motor using three point starter and reversing of dc shunt motor.

SIGNIFICANCE: i) Need of starter at the time of starting.

ii) Reversing of DC shunt motor.


2) DC shunt motor,

3) Three point starter,

4) Variable DC power supply (30A)

THEORY:

DC shunt motor is widely used motor in industrial applications. It is a constant speed motor idealy but there some drop in speed from no-load to full-load practically. The dc shunt motor is started with the help of three point starter. Starter consists of resistances in series with armature which limits the starting current of motor and the resistance is gradually cut-out as the motor gains speed. Once the motor is attaining full speed all resistances of starter has been cut out and motor run at rated speed. Since the back emf of motor is zero at the time of staring as motor is at rest so the heavy current can flow through armature and to limit this starter is used. The direction of dc shunt motor can be reversed or changed either by interchanging its field terminals or armature terminals but not both, because changing both the field and armature terminals will not change the direction of motor and the motor will continue to run in same direction.

CIRCUIT DIAGRAM:


PROCEDURE:

1) Connect the circuit as shown in figure 1. Positive of supply is connected to field point F of motor through starter and negative connected to point FF of field.

2) Now switch on the dc supply source and move the starter arm gradually. The motor will pick up the speed slowly and finally runs at rated speed.

3) Note the direction of motor. 4) Now switch off the supply and interchange the field winding terminals as shown in figure 2, negative

of supply connected to F of field and positive now connected to FF of field through starter. 5) Again move the starter arm gradually. The motor will pick up the speed slowly and finally runs at

rated speed. 6) And again note down the direction of motor.

7) Disconnect the circuit after finishing experiment. 8) Repeat the same procedure for armature terminals.

EXPERIMENT NO. 13

AIM: Determination of Efficiency and Regulation of single phase Transformer by direct loading.

SIGNIFICANCE: From this test we can find out at which load transformer has maximum efficiency and by

how much amount secondary side voltage changes on loading a transformer

APPRATUS: 1) Connecting wires, 2) Ammeter (0-5A) – 1nos. 3) Ammeter (0-2A) – 1nos. 3) Voltmeter (0-300V) – 2nos. 4) Load bank. 5) Autotransformer. 6) Wattmeter (10A, 300V) – 2nos.

THEORY: In a practical transformer there are two types of losses:

(1) Cu loss

(2) Core/Iron loss.

Therefore output of a transformer is always less than input of the transformer.

Here transformer is loaded with a variable resistive load. Input to the transformer can be found out by using

a wattmeter and output can also be measured by a wattmeter or with the help of voltmeter and ammeter.

Input power to transformer = Reading of wattmeter W1

Output power from transformer = Reading of wattmeter W2

% efficiency η = (Output Power / Input Power) × 100%

= (W2 / W1) × 100%

Voltage regulation(V.R) is the change in the magnitude of secondary voltage from no load to desired load.

This change is expressed as a percentage of the full load voltage.

% V.R = ( )

( ) X 100 %

CIRCUIT DIAGRAM:


PROCEDURE:


2) Initially keep the dimmerstat or autotransformer at zero position. And also keep the switch of the

load bank open. Now, gradually increase the voltage and bring it upto rated voltage. Note down this

reading of voltage on both the side of transformer. This reading of voltage on secondary side is open

circuit secondary voltage.

3) Now close the switch of the load bank and gradually increase the load. Every time when load is

increased, note down the readings of voltage, current and power on both the sides of the

transformer in observation table.

4) Calculate percent voltage regulation and percent efficiency by formula as given in calaculations.
