Theory Single phase induction motor is self starting. To make it self start a rotating magnetic field has to be produced in the stator. This is achieved by converting a single phase supply by us of a auxiliary windingin series with the capacitor. Procedure Connection are made as in the figure. Keeping the load minimum supply is given and start the motor. Load is gradually increased till the rated current and reading are noted. Sample calculation Input w Torque (s1-s2)Rxg where R= radius of breadrum And g=9.8m/s2 Output 2 nt/60 Efficiency output/input %slip (ns-n)x100/ns Power factor w/vi Result Load test was conducted and the performance characterstics have been plotted.

Theory When the transformer is loaded with a constant primary voltage the secondary terminal voltage decreases because of its internal resistance and leakage reactance. Change in secondary voltage from no load to full load divided by no load voltage in regulation down and divided by full load voltage is regulation up. %regulation+ (no load voltage full load voltage)x 100/no load voltage.

Theory From open circuited and short circuited test we can determine value of core losses Wo=voiocos$ From the observation values of voio is obtained No load pf cos $ = wo/voio

Eddy loss components iw = io cos $ Magnetic components im= io sin$ From the sc test we will get the value of
