LABORATORY PRACTICE
SAFETY RULES
1.
SAFETY is of paramount importance in the Electrical Engineering Laboratories.
2.
Electricity NEVER EXECUSES careless persons. So, exercise enough care and
attention in handling electrical equipment and follow safety practices in the
laboratory. (Electricity is a good servant but a bad master).
3.
Avoid direct contact with any voltage source and power line voltages. (Otherwise, any
such contact may subject you to electrical shock)
4.
Wear rubber-soled shoes. (To insulate you from earth so that even if you accidentally
contact a live point, current will not flow through your body to earth and hence you
will be protected from electrical shock)
5.
Wear laboratory-coat and avoid loose clothing. (Loose clothing may get caught on an
equipment/instrument and this may lead to an accident particularly if the equipment
happens to be a rotating machine)
6.
Girl students should have their hair tucked under their coat or have it in a knot.
7.
Do not wear any metallic rings, bangles, bracelets, wristwatches and neck chains.
(When you move your hand/body, such conducting items may create a short circuit or
may touch a live point and thereby subject you to electrical shock)
8.
Be certain that your hands are dry and that you are not standing on wet floor. (Wet
parts of the body reduce the contact resistance thereby increasing the severity of the
shock)
9.
Ensure that the power is OFF before you start connecting up the circuit.(Otherwise
you will be touching the live parts in the circuit)
10.
Get your circuit diagram approved by the staff member and connect up the circuit
strictly as per the approved circuit diagram.
11.
Check power chords for any sign of damage and be certain that the chords use safety
plugs and do not defeat the safety feature of these plugs by using ungrounded plugs.
12.
When using connection leads, check for any insulation damage in the leads and avoid
such defective leads.
13.
Do not defeat any safety devices such as fuse or circuit breaker by shorting across it.
Safety devices protect YOU and your equipment.
14.
Switch on the power to your circuit and equipment only after getting them checked up
and approved by the staff member.
15.
Take the measurement with one hand in your pocket. (To avoid shock in case you
accidentally touch two points at different potentials with your two hands)
16.
Do not make any change in the connection without the approval of the staff member.
17.
In case you notice any abnormal condition in your circuit ( like insulation heating up,
resistor heating up etc ), switch off the power to your circuit immediately and inform
the staff member.
18.
Keep hot soldering iron in the holder when not in use.
19.
After completing the experiment show your readings to the staff member and switch
off the power to your circuit after getting approval from the staff member.
20.
While performing load-tests in the Electrical Machines Laboratory using the brakedrums:
i.
ii.
iii.
Avoid the brake-drum from getting too hot by putting just enough water into
the brake-drum at intervals; use the plastic bottle with a nozzle (available in
the laboratory ) to pour the water.(When the drum gets too hot, it will burn out
the braking belts)
Do not stand in front of the brake-drum when the supply to the load-test
circuit is switched off. (Otherwise, the hot water in the brake-drum will splash
out on you)
After completing the load-test, suck out the water in the brake-drum using
the plastic bottle with nozzle and then dry off the drum with a sponge which
is available in the laboratory.(The water, if allowed to remain in the brakedrum, will corrode it)
21.
Determine the correct rating of the fuses to be connected in the circuit after
understanding correctly the type of the experiment to be performed: no-load test or
full-load test, the maximum current expected in the circuit and accordingly use that
fuse-rating.(While an over-rated fuse will damage the equipment and other
instruments like ammeters and watt-meters in case of over load, an under-rated fuse
may not allow one even to start the experiment)
22.
At the time of starting a motor, the ammeter connected in the armature circuit
overshoots, as the starting current is around 5 times the full load rating of the motor.
Moving coil ammeters being very delicate may get damaged due to high starting
current. A switch has been provided on such meters to disconnect the moving coil of
the meter during starting. This switch should be closed after the motor attains full
speed. Moving iron ammeters and current coils of wattmeter’s are not so delicate and
hence these can stand short time overload due to high starting current. No such switch
is therefore provided on these meters. Moving iron meters are cheaper and more
rugged compared to moving coil meters. Moving iron meters can be used for both a.c.
and d.c. measurement. Moving coil instruments are however more sensitive and more
accurate as compared to their moving iron counterparts and these can be used for d.c.
measurements only. Good features of moving coil instruments are not of much
consequence for you as other sources of errors in the experiments are many times
more than those caused by these meters.

CONSTRUCTION OF CIRCLE DIAGRAM
By using the data obtained from the no load test and the blocked rotor test, the circle
diagram can be drawn using the following steps:
1.
Take reference phasor V as vertical (Y-axis)
2.
Select suitable current scale such that diameter of circle is 20-30cm.
3.
From No laod test, I0 and 0 are obtained. Draw vector I0, lagging V by angle 0.
This is line OA
4.
Draw horizontal line through extremity of I0 i.e., A parallel to horizontal axis.
5.
Draw the current ISN calculated from ISC with the same scale, lagging V by angle
SC, from origion O. This is phasor OB.
6.
Join AB. The line AB is called output line.
7.
Draw a perpendicular bisector to AB Extend it to meet line AD at point C. This
is the centre of the circle.
8.
Draw the circle with C as a centre and radius equal to AC. This meets the
horizontal line drawn from A at B.
9.
Draw the perpendicular from point B on the horizontal axis to meet AF line at D
and meet horizontal axis at E.
10.
Torque line:
The torque line separates stator and rotor copper losses.
The vertical distance BD represents power input at short circuit i.e., WSN which
consist of core loss, stator and rotor copper losses.
FD = DE = fixed loss
AF  sum of stator & rotor copper losses.
Pt ‘G’ is located as
BG Rotor copper loss

GD Stator copper loss
The line AG in called torque line
Power Scale: As AD represents WSN i.e., power input on short circuit at normal voltage, the
power scale can be obtained as
WSN
Power scale =

Thus pt G can be obtained by dividing the line BD in the ratio R2' R1
Location of point D (squirrel cage induction motor):
In a squirrel cage motor, the stator resistance can be measured by conducting resistance test.

i.e., Stator copper loss = 3I SN
R1 where I SN is phase value.
Neglecting core loss, WSN = stator Cu loss + Rotor Cu loss

i.e., Rotor copper loss = WSN  3I SN

Dividing line BD in this ratio, the point G can be obtained and hence AG represents torque
line.
To get the torque line, join the points A and G.

To find the full load quantities, draw line BK (=Full load output/power scale).
Now, draw line PK parallel to output line meeting the circle at point P.
Draw line PT parallel to Y-axis meeting output line at Q, torque line at R, constant

PROCEDURE:
1) The DPST-1 is closed and the motor field rheostat is adjusted to make the
alternator run at rated speed.
2) The DPST-2 is closed and by keeping the TPST open, adjusts the alternator field
rheostat to supply the voltage equal to infinite bus bar.
3) The phase sequence of the alternator is made as same as that of the infinite bus bar
by observing the sequence of glowing of synchronizing lamps. If the phase
sequence is not same, any of the two phases are interchanged.
4) The field rheostat is adjusted to bring the frequency of the alternator to same
frequency of infinite bus bar. When the phase sequence of the two sides are same
all the lamps will begin to glow bright and dark simultaneously. In this condition,
when the frequencies are equal, the variation of lamps bright to dark is lowest.
5) At the dimmest point the TPST switch is closed thereby synchronizing the
alternator to the bus bar.

PRECAUTIONS:
i) TPST in open position
ii) DPST1 and DPST2 in open position
iii) Motor field rheostat in minimum position
iv) Potential divider in minimum voltage position
v) Autotransformer at minimum voltage position
PROCEDURE:
1. Make the connections as shown in diagram.
2. Switch on the DC supply to the DC motor by closing the switch DPST1. Start the DC
shunt motor using 3-point starter. Adjust the field rheostat of the alternator and bring
it to rated speed.(1500rpm).
3. Now, dc supply is given to the alternator field winding and adjust the potential divider
so that the generated voltage is rated value (410V).
4. Close the TPST switch. Increase the autotransformer. Induction motor starts running
on no load. Apply rated voltage by adjusting autotransformer. Note down the
frequency, voltage and speed of the induction motor. Now, decrease the frequency.
Decrease the voltage and frequency in proportion and note down the frequency,
voltage and speed of the induction motor each time. This procedure is continued till
frequency decreases to 48Hz.Switch off the supply after bringing the motor to noload.
