  • 1STUDY OF SYMBOLSAIM:

    To study the various symbols used in electric circuits.COMPONENT CIRCUIT SYMBOL DESCRIPTION

    WIRE CONNECTIONS

    Wire To pass current very easily from one partof a circuit to another.

    Wires joinedA 'blob' should be drawn where wires areconnected (joined), but it is sometimesomitted. Wires connected at 'crossroads'should be staggered slightly to form two T-junctions, as shown on the right.

    Wires not joined

    In complex diagrams it is often necessaryto draw wires crossing even though theyare not connected. I prefer the 'bridge'symbol shown on the right because thesimple crossing on the left may be misreadas a join where you have forgotten to add a'blob'!

    POWER SUPPLIES

    Cell

    Supplies electrical energy.The larger terminal (on the left) is positive(+).A single cell is often called a battery, butstrictly a battery is two or more cells joinedtogether.

    BatterySupplies electrical energy. A battery ismore than one cell. The larger terminal (onthe left) is positive (+). The smallerterminal (on the right) is negative (-).

    DC supplySupplies electrical energy.DC = Direct Current, always flowing inone direction.

    AC supplySupplies electrical energy.AC = Alternating Current, continuallychanging direction.

    FuseA safety device which will 'blow' (melt) ifthe current flowing through it exceeds aspecified value.

  • 2Transformer

    Two coils of wire linked by an iron core.Transformers are used to step up (increase)and step down (decrease) AC voltages.Energy is transferred between the coils bythe magnetic field in the core. There is noelectrical connection between the coils.

    Earth(Ground)

    A connection to earth. For many electroniccircuits this is the 0V (zero volts) of thepower supply, but for mains electricity andsome radio circuits it really means theearth. It is also known as ground.

    Dual On-OffSwitch(DPSTS)

    DPST = Double Pole, Single ThrowSwitch. A dual on-off switch which isoften used to switch mains electricitybecause it can isolate both the live andneutral connections.

    Reversing Switch(DPDTS)

    DPDT = Double Pole, Double ThrowSwitch. This switch can be wired up as areversing switch for a motor. Some DPDTswitches have a central off position.

    Relay

    ResistorsResistor A resistor restricts the flow of current, for

    example to limit the current passingthrough an LED. A resistor is used with acapacitor in a timing circuit.Some publications still use the old resistorsymbol:

    Variable Resistor(Rheostat)

    This type of variable resistor with 2contacts (a rheostat) is usually used tocontrol current. Examples include:adjusting lamp brightness, adjusting motorspeed, and adjusting the rate of flow ofcharge into a capacitor in a timing circuit.

  • 4Variable Resistor(Potentiometer)

    This type of variable resistor with 3contacts (a potentiometer) is usually usedto control voltage. It can be used like thisas a transducer converting position (angleof the control spindle) to an electricalsignal.

    Variable Resistor(Preset)

    This type of variable resistor (a preset) isoperated with a small screwdriver orsimilar tool. It is designed to be set whenthe circuit is made and then left withoutfurther adjustment. Presets are cheaperthan normal variable resistors so they areoften used in projects to reduce the cost.

    The inside surface of the fluorescent tube is coated with a thin layer of fluorescentmaterial in the form of powder. The tube also contains low pressure argon gas andone or two drops of mercury. The two filaments are coated with electron emissivematerial. The starter (initially in closed position) puts the filaments directly acrossthe supply mains at the time of starting, there by initiating emission of electrons.After 1 or 2 seconds the starter switch gets opened. The interruption of currentmakes the choke to act like ballast providing a voltage impulse across thefilaments. Due to this, ionization of argon takes place. Mercury vapour arcprovides a conducting path between the filaments. The starter used may be ofthermal starter or glow starter whose function is to complete the circuit initially forpreheating the filaments (to initiate emission of electrons) and then to open thecircuit for high voltage across choke for initiating ionization.PROCEDURE: First the layout diagram of the electrical circuit is made.

    Full Scale Reading of Wattmeter Actual Power in Watts = Observed Reading x Multiplication FactorTHEORY:

    A wattmeter is an instrument specially designed to measure average powerconsumed by a load. It has two coils:A current coil that measures the current and avoltage coil that measures the voltage. The wattmeter takes into account the phaseshift, if there is any between the current sensed by its current coil and the voltagesensed by its voltage coil. If the voltage drop across as measured the voltage coil isVm cos(t + ) A, then the average power P measured by the wattmeter in watts is Vm Im Cos ,where = is the power factor angle. The voltage coil of thewattmeter, its reading will be 0.707 Vm.

    up of a thick wire and has only few turns. This coil is to be connected in series withthe load. An aluminum disc mounted on the spindle is placed between the upperand lower magnets. The disc can rotate freely between the magnets. Anotherpermanent magnet called as brake magnet is used for providing breaking torqueon the aluminium disc.

    The power consumed is measured in terms of number rotations of the disc.For example 1800 revolutions of the disc means 1 KWH power consumed by theload connected to the energy meter.PRECAUTIONS: Single phase variac should be kept at minimum position, during starting

    period. No load should be connected when the DPSTS is closed or opened.

    PROCEDURE: The connections are made as per the circuit diagram. Rated Voltage is set in the voltmeter, by gradually varying the single phase

    STUDY OF MEASUREMENT OF RESISTANCE USING COLOR CODINGAIM:

    To study the measurement of value of resistance using color codingREFERENCE:1. Engineering Practices Laboratory by V. Ramesh Babu VRB Publishers.2. Engineering Practice by M.S. Kumar D D Publications.MATERIALS REQUIRED:

    1. Resistors2. Multimeter

    THEORY:A resistor is a passive component. It introduces resistance in the circuit.

    Resistance is basic property of conducting material and is given byR = L/ A

    Where, - Specified resistivity.L - Length of the material.A - Area of cross section of material.

    We have a number of type of resistors such as carbon composition, metalfilm, carbon film wire wound and variable resistors.

    In our laboratory carbon resistors are used. For resistance of the order ofmega ohms, we use powdered carbon mixed with a suitable building material inthe proper proportion. Carbon resistors are quite cheap, but the value of resistancemay be easily affected by atmospheric changes and is also susceptible to hightolerance.

    IDENTIFICATION MARKING OF RESISTORSUniversally recognized approaches have been established to identify the

    electrical values. Two such markings are(i) Colour code.(ii) Alpha numeric code.

    Normally in our laboratories low wattage general purpose resistors areused. In this colour coding method is used to identify the value of the resistance.

    In our colour coding method the value of the resistance is coded on theresistor using three or four colour bands. The first two colour band gives the firsttwo significant digital values. The third band gives the value of multiplier. Fourthband gives the tolerance value.

    THEORY:The Cathode Ray Oscilloscope is an extremely useful and versatile as laboratory

    instrument for studying wave shapes of alternating currents and voltages as well as formeasurement of voltage, current and frequency. It generates the electron a high velocity,deflects the beam to create the image and contains a phosphor beam, to screen where theelectron beam becomes visible. For accomplishing these tasks various electrical signals andvoltages are required, which are provided by the power supply circuit of the oscilloscope.Low voltage supply is required for the heater of the electron gun for generation of electronbeam and high voltage is required for cathode ray tube to accelerate the beam. Normalvoltage supply is required for other control circuits of the oscilloscope. Electron beamdeflects in two directions horizontal on X axis and vertical on Y axis.For measurement of direct voltage, firstly the spot is centered on the screen withoutapplying signal any voltage to the deflection plates. Then direst voltage to be measured isapplied between a pair of depletion plates and deflection of the spot is observed on thescreen. The magnitude of the deflection multiplied is the deflection factor gives the value ofdirect voltage applied.In case of measurement alternating voltage of sinusoidal waveform it is applied between apair of deflection plates and the length of the straight line is measured. Knowing bedetermined the deflection sensitivity the peak to peak value of applied ac voltage can bedetermined.

    PROCEDURE:1. The circuit connections are given as per the circuit diagram.2. The sinusoidal voltage is applied with the help of AFO.3. Readings are taken for different magnitudes and frequencies.

    RESULT:Thus the Peak Peak Magnitude of the voltage, RMS Value of the Voltage, Time

    Period, Frequency are measured with help up CRO.

    A B = ( A . B ) + ( A . B )It is similar to OR gate but excludes the combination of both A and Bbeing equal to one. The exclusive OR is a function that give an outputsignal 0 when the two input signals are equal either 0 or 1.

    HALF WAVE AND FULL WAVE RECTIFIER

    AIM:

    THEORY:Half wave rectifier converts alternating voltage into unidirectional

    pulsating voltage. The half wave rectifier circuit using a diode with a loadresistance R. The diode is connected in series with the secondary of thetransformer and the load resistance R, the primary of the transformer is beingconnected to the supply mains. The AC voltage across the secondary windingchanges polarities after every half cycle. During the positive half cycles of theinput AC voltage i.e. when upper end of the secondary winding is positivewith respect to its lower end, the diode is forward biased and therefore

    current conducts. During the negative half cycles of the input AC voltage i.e.when lower end of the secondary winding is positive with respect to its upperend, the diode is reverse biased and does not conduct. Thus for the negativehalf cycles no power is delivered to the load. Since only one half cycles of theinput wave is converted as output, it is called as Half Wave Rectifier.

    In Full Wave Rectifier the diode D2 and D4 will conduct duringthe positive half of the input signal and during the negative half cycle of theinput signal the diode D1 andD3 conducts. Hence both the half cycles areconverted into output and the efficiency is high compared with the half waverectifier.

    PROCEDURE:1. Circuit connections were given as per the circuit diagram.2. Input waveforms magnitude and frequency was measured with the

    help of CRO.3. Supply is switched ON and the output waveform was obtained in the

    CRO.4. Output waveforms magnitude and time period was measured.5. Graphs were plotted for Half wave and Full wave rectifier outputs.

    RESULT:Thus the output of Half wave and Full wave rectifiers were obtained

    and the curves were plotted.

    MEASUREMENT OF RESISTANCE TO EARTH OF ELECTRICALEQUIPMENT

    AIM:To measure the resistance to earth / insulation resistance of the order of

    mega ohms.REFERENCE:1. Engineering Practices Laboratory by V. Ramesh Babu VRB Publishers.2. Engineering Practice by M.S. Kumar D D Publications.

    THEORY:Megger is the equipment used in this experiment. It is an instrument

    for testing the insulation resistance of the order of mega ohms.PRINCIPLE:

    A megger consists of an EMF source and a Voltmeter. The voltmeterscale is calibrated in ohms. In measurement, the EMF of the self containedsource should be equal that of the source used in calibration. The deflection ofthe moving system depends on the ratio of the currents in the coils and isindependent of the applied voltage. The value of unknown resistance can befound directly from the scale of the instrument. Figure shows the detaileddiagram of a megger. It consists of hand driven dc generator and ohmmeter, asmall permanent magnet. Hand driven dc generator generates a EMF about500V. The permanent dc meter has two moving coils. First one is deflectingcoil and another one controlling coil. The deflecting coil is connected to thegenerator through a resistor R. The torque due to the two coils opposes eachother. It consists of three terminals E, L and G.OPERATION:

    When the terminals are open circuited, no current flows through thedeflecting coil. The torque due to the controlling coil moves the pointer to oneend of the scale. When the terminals are short circuited, the torque due to thecontrolling coil and the pointer is deflected to the other end of the scale, i.e.

    zero mark. In between the two extreme positions the scale is calibrated toindicate the value of unknown resistance directly. The unknown insulationresistance is connected across E and L terminals. The effective insulationresistance is the combination of insulation volume resistance and surfaceleakage resistance. The guard wire terminal makes the surface leakage currentto by pass the instrument hence only insulation resistance is measured.

    RESULT:Thus the resistance to earth / insulation resistance of the order of mega

    ohms can be measured.
