ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT

DIGITAL MULTI METER


A multimeter or a multitester, also known as aVOM, is an electronicmeasuring instrument that combines several measurement functions in one unit. A typical multimeter may include features such as the ability to measure voltage, current and resistance. Multimeters may use analog or digital circuitsanalog Multimeters and digital Multimeters.

QUANTITIES MEASURED
Contemporary multimeters can measure many quantities. The common ones are: Voltage, alternating and direct, in volts. Current, alternating and direct, in amperes. The frequency range for which AC measurements are accurate must be specified. Resistance in ohms. Additionally, some multimeters measure: Capacitance in farads. Conductance in siemens. Frequency in hertz. Inductance in henrys. Temperature in degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit, with an appropriate temperature test probe, often a thermocouple. Digital multimeters may also include circuits for: Continuity; beeps when a circuit conducts.

ELECTRIC CIRCUIT LAB MANUAL

ACCURACY
Digital multimeters generally take measurements with accuracy superior to their analog counterparts. Standard analog multimeters measure with typically three percent accuracy, though instruments of higher accuracy are made. Standard portable digital multimeters are specified to have an accuracy of typically 0.5% on the DC voltage ranges.

PROBES
A multimeter can utilize a variety of test probes to connect to the circuit or device under test. Crocodile clips, retractable hook clips, and pointed probes are the three most common attachments. Tweezer probes are used for closelyspaced test points, as in surface-mount devices. The connectors are attached to flexible, thickly-insulated leads that are terminated with connectors appropriate for the meter. Probes are connected to portable meters typically by shrouded or recessed banana jacks, while benchtop meters may use banana jacks or BNC connectors. 2mm plugs and binding posts have also been used at times, but are less common today.

BATTERY
Hand-held meters use batteries for continuity and resistance readings. This allows the meter to test a device that is not connected to a power source, by supplying its own low voltage for the test. A 1.5 volt AA battery is typical; more sophisticated meters with added capabilities instead or also use a 9 volt battery for some types of readings, or even higher-voltage batteries for very high resistance testing.

CONCLUSION
We can measure voltage ac, dc by multimeter We can measure ampere by multimeter We can also check continuity of circuit and diode It portable It easy to use and it perform many function by single meter It is also check capacitance of the capacitor.

GALVANOMETER
Galvano meter is type of ammeter measuring current and detecting current. The basic sensitivity of meter might be, for instance, 100 ampere, micro ampere full scale. Such meters are calibrated to read some other quantity that can be converted to a current of that magnitude, to use current divider, current divider allows a meter to be calibrated to measuring largecurrent, A meter also can beused as a volt meter, when a high resistance attach with meter in series, Some meter includes a mirror along marking of the principal scale.

Source and load are connect with two taps Each taps correspond to a different source or voltage source Auto transformer can convert voltage zero to maximum capacity of Auto transformer

ENERGY METER
Induction type meters are the most common form of AC meters. These meters measureelectric energy in kilowatt-hour. The principle of these meters is practically the same asthat of the induction wattmeter. In these meters magnet and spindle is used. The watt-hour meter consistsof two main coils: (i) Pressure coil. (ii) Current coil. The pressure coil is attached to the source while the current coil is attached to the load. Inkilowatt-hour meter the breaking magnet is provided to control the speed of the disc.

FUNCTION GENERTOR
A piece of electronic test equipment to generate electric wave forms. This wave form can be repetitive or single short in which case some kind of triggering source is required.

CATHOD RAY OSCILLOSCOP


An oscilloscope is a type of test equipment, The oscilloscope is more versatile and widely used electronic instrument It is show wave shop of electrical signal. It can show frequency wave form show distortion, and show the relative timing of two related signals It is used many places like hospital, electrical lab, physics lab etc.

DC POWER SUPPLY
DC power supply is use for variable dc supply in electrical and electronic lab We can take zero to twelve volt and we can also set current value, which we want.

CONCLUSION
These are important for electrical engineers We can take every type of reading like we can measure voltage by volt meter ampere measure by am meter, power factor measure by power factor meter etc. We conclude it is use full in every lab. Very important meter is multi meter which we can take all reading by single meter like we can measure volt, ampere, etc. Watt meter is only measure electrical power does not measure any other power like mechanical. Watt meter is totally different from energy meter it only measure power for instant but energy meter also record these power. By Galvano meter we can use it as am meter or as volt meter after some modification. CRO is general purpose instrument use in medical and use for calibration of electrical equipment. (END)

CONCLUSION
We observe how we can measure resistance value without multi meter. We also conclude that the given value of resistance is not so much accurate. We observe the resistance value is different at different temperature. Resistance value different at room temperature and different when it in circuit. Resistance are many type like three band, four band, five and six band. Resistance might be variable might be fixed value. We learn how we can measure resistance with digital multi meter. We learn when we measuring resistance so our hand should not touch with the edge of carbon colour code resistance. We saw only some resistance have six or five band with temperature coefficient. This is port able. It is so cheap so we can largely use it.

OBJECTIVE;

APPARATUS;
Resistive load. Ammeter. 5. Power supply 220 V Voltmeter. Wattmeter. Connecting wires

THEORY;
Power MEASURE BY THREE WATT METER
The wattmeter is a measuring instrument use to measure electric power. The wattmeter is consists of a Pressure Coil and Current Coil. The current coil of the instrument carries the load current, while the pressure coil carries the current proportional to, and in phase with the voltage. The deflection of the wattmeter depends upon the current in these two coils and upon the power factor. Inductance in the pressure coil circuit should be divided as far as possible, since it causes the pressure coil current to lag behind the applied voltage. A high non-inductive resistance is connected in series with the pressure coil in order that the resultant of the coil itself shall be small in comparison, with the resistance of the whole pressure coil circuit taken by the pressure coil shall be small.

PROCEDURE;
Connect the voltmeter in parallel with the source. Connect the ammeter in series with the source. Connect the wattmeter according to the instruction already written on the labelled diagram. Now vary the load, and measure voltage, current and power each time. Finally measure power factor each time.

OBJECTIVE;
Tounderstandthemotor and its types.

THEORY;
ELECTRIC MOTOR
An electric motor converts electrical energy into mechanical energy. Most electric motors operate through interacting magnetic fields and current-carrying conductors to generate force, although electrostatic motors use electrostatic forces. The reverse process, producing electrical energy from mechanical energy, is done by generators such as an alternator or a dynamo. Many types of electric motors can be run as generators, and vice versa. For example a starter/generator for a gas turbine, or traction motors used on vehicles, often perform both tasks. Electric motors and generators are commonly referred to as electric machines.

INDUCTION MOTOR (A.C MOTOR)


An electric motor turns because of magnetic force exerted between a stationary electromagnet called the stator and a rotating electromagnet called the rotor. Different types of electric motors are distinguished by how electric current is supplied to the moving rotor. In a DC motor and a slip-ring AC motor, current is provided to the rotor directly through sliding electrical contacts called commutators and slip rings. In an induction motor, by contrast, the current is induced in the rotor without contacts by the magnetic field of the stator, through electromagnetic induction. An induction motor is sometimes called a rotating transformer because the stator (stationary part) is essentially the primary side of the transformer and the rotor (rotating part) is the secondary side. Unlike the normal transformer which changes the current by using time varying flux, induction motors use rotating magnetic fields to transform the voltage. The current in the primary side creates an electromagnetic field which interacts with the electromagnetic field of the secondary side to produce a resultant torque, thereby transforming the electrical energy into mechanical energy. Induction motors are widely used, especially polyphase induction motors, which are frequently used in industrial drives.

ELECTRIC CIRCUIT LAB MANUAL

CONSTRUCTION;
The stator consists of wound 'poles' that carry the supply current to induce a magnetic field that penetrates the rotor. In a very simple motor, there would be a single projecting piece of the stator (a salient pole) for each pole, with windings around it; in fact, to optimize the distribution of the magnetic field, the windings are distributed in many slots located around the stator, but the magnetic field still has the same number of north-south alternations. The number of 'poles' can vary between motor types but the poles are always in pairs (i.e. 2, 4, 6, etc.). There are three types of rotor:

SQUIRREL-CAGE ROTOR;
The most common rotor is a squirrel-cage rotor. It is made up of bars of either solid copper (most common) or aluminum that span the length of the rotor, and those solid copper or aluminum strips can be shorted or connected by a ring or sometimes not, i.e. the rotor can be closed or semiclosed type. The rotor bars in squirrel-cage induction motors are not straight, but have some skew to reduce noise and harmonics.

SLIP RING ROTOR;


A slip ring rotor replaces the bars of the squirrel-cage rotor with windings that are connected to slip rings. When these slip rings are shorted, the rotor behaves similarly to a squirrel-cage rotor; they can also be connected to resistors to produce a highresistance rotor circuit, which can be beneficial in starting

SOLID CORE ROTOR;


A rotor can be made from solid mild steel. The induced current causes the rotation.

DC MOTOR
A DC motor is designed to run on DC electric power. Two examples of pure DC designs are Michael Faraday's homopolar motor (which is uncommon), and the ball bearing motor, which is (so far) a novelty. By far the most common DC motor types are the brushed and brushless types, which use internal and external commutation respectively to periodically reverse the current in the rotor windings.

APPLICATION;
Electric motors are found in applications as diverse as industrial fans, blowers and pumps, machine tools, household appliances, power tools, and disk drives. (END)

TRANSFORMER

How they make it?


1.

Selection of Core.
The Core is constructed from cold reduced grain oriented laminated silicon steel, which are slit and cut to required size. Core loss induced due to cutting is relieved in a modern way. Eddy Current losses in the built core are kept to minimum by using bur free laminations. In order to ensure that the core loss will not increase with service, the laminations are insulated with a non-ageing phosphate coating.

2.

Winding / Insulation.
Windings are designed and made with three major considerations to ensure that they have sufficient dielectric strength to withstand service and test conditions, that they are well cooled, and that they have a high mechanical strength to withstanding short circuit stresses.

3. Inspection& Testing
The establishment and maintenance of a high standard of both material and workmanship in our factory is achieved by continuous / stage inspections during the Manufacturing and our Design & Development is subsequently proved by testing. Our laboratory is equipped with the most modern and precise measuring instruments current voltage transformers of class AL accuracy to ensure the exact characteristics of the transformer. Transformers are tested in accordance with the requirements laid down by the IEC, BSS and VDE.

4. Energy Analyzing
We at ZGL ensure that the transformers manufactured are well in limits to minimize the hidden energy consumption through stage inspections and analyzation at each step during design and development.

5. Transformer Oil.
The oil used is must go tested and verified before filling, as to ensure the safe life and keep the equipment cool and to meet the stresses in most severe conditions.

6. Finishing Covers and conservators including Radiators are taken care in a way in our metal treatment process in which they undergo decreasing, de-rusting and phosphate coating. This is done before the header plates are welded to ensure that both the inside and outside surface of the radiator tubes are treated before they go for paint. These are then painted with a priming coat and tow final coat to BSS in used. (Unless otherwise specified) finishing

The power plant is equipped with a combination of the most modern technology from Japan, Europe and USA. A general reconstruction of twenty-four generator sets was carried out from 2005 2007. The reconstruction included a modification of the generator sets. Their fuel systems were modified to operate on diesel fuel and natural gas. The whole contract was carried out by Motor System s.r.o. The Reliance SCADA/HMI system was installed for control and visualization of the generator sets and also for control of other engineering facilities. The Reliance system provides communication with WOODWARD Control System over the Modbus protocol. All important parameters from operation are controlled by Reliance. Data from the operation is automatically stored in the database. The historical data is used for displaying the historical trends, alarms/events and other relevant information. The operator (Sitara Energy LTD.) is very satisfied with the control system installed in its power plant. They generate electricity from gas and as well as furnace oil.
