Prerequisite: Electrical Machines – I & Electrical Machines – II

Course Objectives:

• To understand the operation of synchronous machines
• To understand the analysis of power angle curve of a synchronous machine
• To understand the equivalent circuit of a single phase transformer and single phase induction motor
• To understand the circle diagram of an induction motor by conducting a blocked rotor test.

Course Outcomes: After the completion of this laboratory course, the student will be able

• Assess the performance of different machines using different testing methods
• To convert the Phase from three phase to two phase and vice versa
• Compensate the changes in terminal voltages of synchronous generator after estimating the change by different methods
• Control the active and reactive power flows in synchronous machines
• Start different machines and control the speed and power factor

The following experiments are required to be conducted as compulsory experiments

1. O.C. & S.C. Tests on Single phase Transformer
2. Sumpner’s test on a pair of single phase transformers
3. No-load & Blocked rotor tests on three phase Induction motor
