Theory: Transformer is a static device which transfers electrical power from one circuit to another circuit either by step up or step down the voltage with corresponding decrease increase in the current, with out changing the frequency. OC Test The main aim of this test is to determine the Iron losses & No- load current of the T/F which are helpful in finding Ro & Xo.In this test generally supply will be given to primary and secondary kept open. Since secondary is opened a small current(magnetizing current will flow and it will be 5 to 10% of full load current. The wattmeter connected in primary will give directly the Iron losses (core losses).

SC Test: The main aim of this test is to determine the full load copper losses which is helpful in finding the R01, X01, Z01, efficiency and regulation of the T/F. Generally low voltage side will be short circuited and supply will be given to high voltage side & it will be of 5-10% of the rated voltage. The wattmeter connected in primary will give directly the full load copper losses of the T/F.

: Procedure OC Test: 1) 2) Give connections as per the circuit diagram. Switch-ON the supply and apply rated voltage to the primary of the winding by using the auto transformer. Note the readings of Ammeter, Voltmeter & Wattmeter 3) SC Test: 1) 2) Give connections as per the circuit diagram. Switch-ON the supply and vary the Dimmerstat till rated full load current flows through transformer. 3) Note the readings of Ammeter, Voltmeter & Wattmeter

Precautions:

1) The Dimmerstat should be kept at minimum O/P position initially. 2) In OC test, rated voltage should be applied to the primary of the Transformer. 3) In SC test, the Dimmerstat should be varied upto the rated load current only. 4) For sc test, close the polarity switch only when both secondaries are at same potential 4) If the polarity voltmeter indicates some voltage, change secondary winding connections..

Theory: Sumpner's test is also known as back-to-back test. This test requires two identical transformers and is connected as shown in circuit diagram. By this test ,the equivalent Circuit parameters, efficiency, regulation & heating of both the T/F can be determined. Each T/F is loaded on the other and both are connected to same supply. The primaries of Two T/Fs are connected in parallel across same supply and the Wattmeter connected in Primaries reads the core losses (Iron losses) of both transformers. The secondaries are so connected such that their potentials are in opposite to each other.By connecting so there would be no secondary current flowing around the loop formed by the two secondaries. Procedure: OC Test: 1) Give connections as per the circuit diagram. 2) Switch-ON the supply keeping the polarity switch open and apply rated voltage to the primary of the winding by using the auto transformer. 3) Note the readings of Ammeter, Voltmeter & Wattmeter

PRECAITIONS: 1) The Dimmerstat should be kept at minimum O/P position

initially. 2) The Dimmerstat should be varied slowly & uniformly. 3) Rated voltage should be applied to the primary of the Transformer.

Theory:

In some cases, we may require 2 power instead of 3 or 1 power. For

that it is necessary to convert 3 to2 power (since 3 power is available at every nook corner). Scott connection is one by which 3-phase to 2-phase transformation is accomplished with the help of two identical 1 T/Fs having same current rating. One T/F has a center tap on primary side and it is known as Main transformer. It forms the horizontal member of the connection. Another T/F has 0.866tap on primary side and known as Teaser transformer. The 50% tap point on primary side of the main T/F is joined to 86.6% tap on primary of the teaser T/F. Obviously full rating of the T/Fs is not at all used. Refer to the fig. The main T/F primary winding center tap point D is connected to one end of the primary of the teaser T/F on secondary side, both the main & teaser T/F turns are used (not only 86.6%).Hence the voltage per turn will be equal for both T/Fs. Since point D is located midway on AB, VCD leads VAB by 900 i.e, voltages across primary are 900 apart also. Position of Neutral point N on primary side: Remember point D is not the neutral on primary , since its voltages w.r.t R, Y, B are not equal to V1/ 3 i.e, the neutral point is that one which gives equal voltage with R, Y, B. The neutral point is one third the waydown the teaser T/F winding from C to D Or point N divides the teaser primary winding in the ratio of 1:2. Hence the neutral must be

At 86.6/3=28.8% from D Current in Teaser T/F: w.r.t N2 /0.866N1 = IR/IX IR = InK(1.15) For 2:1 T/F, IR = 0.57xIX Current in Main T/F: N2/N1 = (IR/2 - IY/2) For balanced load, since IX & IY are at 900 IR = 1200; IB = -1200 Like wise, IR, IY & IB are equal in magnitude and are 1200 apart from each other.

Procedure:

1) Give all connections as per the circuit diagram. 2) Switch-ON the supply and apply rated voltage to the primaries. 3) Note the voltmeters readings of both sec. Sides of both T/Fs. 4) Now join the sec. in series aiding as shown in fig.and note he resultant voltage. 5) Load both the T/Fs equally with out exceeding the rating And

note the ammeter readings on primary side.

Precautions:

1)The Dimmerstat should be kept at minimum O/P position initially. 2) In the rotor-blocked test, the rotor should be blocked firmly. 3) In SC test, the Dimmerstat should be varied slowly such that current should not exceed the rated value. 4) If the wattmeter shows negative deflection, then reverse either pressure coil or current coil & take that reading as negative.

Theory:

With the help of circle diagram, the behavior of the Induction motor

under various load conditions i.e, the characteristics can be studied. Apart from that the max torque and max O/P that can be developed by the motor can be predetermined. Efficiency, slip, p.f, rotor cu losses, stator cu losses, no-load

losses, full load O/P, stable region of operation etc. can also be predetermined. To draw a circle diagram, it is necessary to conduct two tests on the motor. a) No-load test and b) blocked rotor test.

Construction of circle diagram: 1) Obtain the values of VL, IO, WO & Cos from the OC test. 2) Obtain the vales of VS.C, IS.C, WS.C & Cos 4) Take a suitable current scale. 5) Represent the vector IO lag behind VL by 6) Name the vector as OA. 7) Join O1A & Draw a le line to the X-axis through O1 and name as O1X1. 8) Draw a perpendicular bisector to O1A so that it meets the line O1X1 at C as center. 9) Draw a semicircle on the line O1X1 taken O1C as radius and C as center. 10) Draw a perpendicular bisector to O1A so that it meets the line O1R1 at C. 11) Draw a perpendicular from A to X-axis so that it meets X-axis at C.

Precautions:

1) Operate the 3-point starter slowly & uniformely. 2) Keep the speed of the prime mover to its rated value through out the experiment. 3) In OC test, there should not be any load on Alternator. 4) In SC test, the SC current should not exceed its rated value.

Theory: Alternator is a machine, which converts mechanical energy to electrical energy. Regulation of an Alternator can be calculated by synchronous impedance method. In OC test the terminals of the alternator are kept opened and a voltmeter is connected. Keeping speed constant, a relation b/w field current & open circuit voltage are obtained. In SC test, the terminals are short circuited with a suitable ammeter & a relation b/w field current & short circuit Current are obtained. Voltage regulation: It is defined as the rise in terminal voltage of an isolated Machine when full load is thrown off w.r.t voltage on the full load, when speed & excitation remaining constant.

Now,

Syn.Impedance (ZS) = OC voltage / SC current XS = Z2S - R2a From fig. EO = OB2 + BD2 = (Vcos +IRa)2 + (Vsin +IXS)2 % Regulation = [(E0-V) / V] 100

Procedure: OC test: 1) Give all connections as per the circuit diagram. 2) Switch-ON the supply & by varying the starter, prime mover speed is adjusted to rated. 3) Now keeping the field current at zero, note the induced emf in armature duo to residual Magnetism. 4) By slowly varying the potential divider, field current is increased & corresponding emf Induced is noted up to above 20% of rated voltage. SC test: 1) Give all connections as per the circuit diagram. 2) Switch-ON the supply & by varying the starter, prime mover speed is adjusted to rated. 3) By slowly varying the potential divider, field current is increased & corresponding short Circuit current is noted up to rated value. To find armature resistance (Ra): Give the connections as per diagram and by slowly varying the rheostat, note the values of ammeter & voltmeter up to some value and average them.

Precautions: 1) There should not be any load on the motor. 2) Initially the field current should be adjusted to rated value. 3) The direction of the rotation of the rotor should be in proper direction only. 4) If Ia value is increased more than rated value, then it should be brought to rated value by adjusting the field current.

5) The I/P voltage should be kept constant through out the experiment. 6)After completion of the experiment only 3-phase supply should be disconnected first and then DC supply. Theory :The variation of field current effects the power factor at which the synchro- nous motor operates. For a syn motor, the armature current phasor is given by Ia=V-E where V is the applied voltage .From the above equation it is clear that the magnitude and phase angle of phasor Ia depends upon the value of DC excitation. When the syn. Motor is operated at constant load with variable field excitation , it is observed that: a) When the excitation is low, the armature current is lag in nature & the magnitude is comparatively high. b) If the excitation is gradually increased, the magnitude of Ia is gradually decreasing and the angle of lag is gradually reduced. c) At one particular excitation, the magnitude of I a corresponding to that load in minimum and vector will be in phase with V vector. d) If the excitation is further increased, the magnitude of I a again gradually increased and Ia,vector goes to leading state and the angle of load is also gradually increased. Procedure: 1) Give all connections as per the circuit diagram. 2) Switch-ON the supply and apply the rated voltage by using D.O.L starter keeping SPST switch open. 3) Now field supply is given to the field by closing SPST switch. At this position, the rotor will be pulled into synchronism. 4) By varying the field current If , Note down the values of armature currents. 5) Switch-Off the supply.

Precautions:

1) The Dimmerstat should be kept at minimum O/P position initially. 2) In the rotor-blocked test, the rotor should be blocked firmly. 3) In SC test, the Dimmerstat should be varied slowly such that

current should not exceed the rated value. 4) If the wattmeter shows negative deflection, then reverse either pressure coil or current coil & take that reading as negative.

Theory:

Single phase induction motor also woks on the principle of

'Faraday's laws of electromagnetic induction. The equivalent Circuit of such motor is based on double field revolving theory i.e, an alternating uniaxial quantity can be

represented by two oppositely rotating vectors of half magnitude. So here the single phase motor has been imagined to be made up of one stator winding and two imaginary rotors. Each rotor will be assigned half the actual value of resistance. In order to find the equivalent circuit parameters, it is need to conduct OC & SC tests on it. In OC test, rated voltage will be given to motor with out any load on it. In SC test, the rotor is blocked and a reduced voltage will be given upto the rated load current. Procedure: No-load test: 4) Give all connections as per the circuit diagram. 5) Switch-ON the supply & apply the rated voltage to motor with out any load. 6) Note the readings of voltmeter, ammeter & wattmeter. Blocked rotor test: 1. Give all connections as per the circuit diagram. 2. Apply a low voltage to motor with auto transformer so that rated load current flows through the stator. 3. Note the readings of voltmeter, ammeter & wattmeter

Precautions: 1) Check the phase sequence of the machine with that of external supply before closing the switches. 2) Disconnect the excitation supply of the alternator while giving external supply.

3) Slip should be made as small as possible.

Theory: The values of Xd & Xq are determined by conducting the slip-test. The syn. machine is driven by a separate prime mover at a speed slightly different from synchronous speed. The field winding is left open and positive sequence balanced voltages of reduced magnitude (around 25% of the rated value) and of rated frequency and impressed across the armature terminals. Here, the relative velocity b/w the field poles and the rotating armature mmf wave is equal to the difference b/w syn. speed and the rotor speed i.e, the slip speed . When the rotor is along the d-axis, then it has a position of min reluctance, min flux linkage and max flux produced links with the winding.then Xd = (max. armature terminal voltage/ph) / (min. armature current/ph)As the current is small then V t will be high as drop will be small.When the rotor is along q-axis, then it is max, then the flux linkage would be max.Then The min flux produced links with winding. So max emf. Xq = (min. armature terminal voltage/ph) / (max. armature current/ph) Procedure: 1) Give all connections as per the circuit diagram. 2) Run the machine at syn speed and give a small excitation so that to generate a small voltage. 3) Check the phase sequence of the machine with the incoming external supply. 4) Now, remove the supply for field winding and run the machine slightly above or below the rated speed. 5) Apply the external supply slowly and observe the oscillations in ammeter & voltmeter. 6) Note the max & min voltage and current.

1) There should not be any load on the motor initially. 2) The brake drum should be filled with water to cool it. 3) If the wattmeter shows negative deflection, reverse either

pressure coil or current coil and take that reading as negative. 4) The rotor external resistance should be kept at max resistance position initially.

Theory: As a general rule, conversion of electrical energy to mechanical energy takes place in to the rotating part on electrical motor. In DC motors, electrical power is conduct directly to the armature, i.e, rotating part through brushes and commutator. Hence, in this sense, a DC motor can be called as 'conduction motor'. However, in AC motors, rotor does not receive power by conduction but by induction in exactly the same way as secondary of a two winding T/F receives its power from the primary. So, these motors are known as Induction motors. In fact an induction motor can be taken as rotating T/F, i.e, one in which primary winding is stationary and but the secondary is free. The starting torque of the Induction motor can be increase by improving its p.f by adding external resistance in the rotor circuit from the stator connected rheostat, the rheostat resistance being progressively cut out as the motor gathers speed. Addition of external resistance increases the rotor impedance and so reduces the rotor current. At first, the effect of improved p.f predominates the currentdecreasing effect of impedance. So, starting torque is increased. At time of starting, external resistance is kept at maximum resistance position and after a certain time, the effect of increased impedance predominates the effect of improved p.f and so the torque starts decreasing. By this during running period the rotor resistance being progressively cut-out as the motor attains its speed. In this way, it is possible to get good starting torque as well as good running torque.
