GUIDE LINES FOR THE EXPERIMENTS AND REPORT PREPARATION

1. Preparation for the experiment: Before conducting the experiment, the student is required to have
read the experiment background and procedure from the experiment manual and studied the related
theory. The lab instructor may, during the experiment, ask students questions pertaining to the
procedure and theory. The lab instructor may give negative points to and even prevent an
unprepared student from conducting the experiment. Tardy students may not be allowed to perform
the experiment.
2. Laboratory teams: The class will be divided in teams of three or four students. The composition of
the teams (which students will team up) is decision of Lab Instructor. Each lab experiment requires
a report. The lab reports are due on the next lab meeting. The lab report for the final experiment is
due a week after the final lab meeting. Each student submits one report per experiment (unless
otherwise required) in the record. The grade of the report is given to all members of the team. Late
reports are penalized by taking few points off per each day past the due date of the report. The other
grade components of the experiments are given to the students individually. If a student misses or is
dismissed from an experiment, the grade of that student shall be zero for that experiment.
3. Preparation of the report: The report must be produced in the lab Records of the Institute. Tables
showing data or results, as well as figures and graphs should be produced. Include captions and
titles for figures, graphs and tables as well as numbers for equations. The preferred language style is
the use of the present tense and third person. The report must contain the following sections:
 Cover page: Include number and title of the experiment, date the experiment was performed
and the names of the team members.
 Objective: Give a short description of the purpose of the experiment.
 Theoretical background: Give a brief description of the relevant theory.
 The experimental procedure: Summarize what was done for each experiment procedure.
Do not copy or repeat the description from the lab manual. Report the measurement and
other experimental data. Tabulate measurements if necessary. Include table number and title
over tables.
 Analysis of experimental data: Analyze the data. Compare with theoretical results. Label
axis. Show units. Add remarks and calculations on each procedure if necessary.
Conclusions: Summarize the experiment and the results. Discuss the factual knowledge
gained.

field resistance at minimum., alternator field resistance at maximum , Load is fully OFF and
Synchronizing switch S1 open.

4. Close 3- phase AC supply switch and measure its voltage Adjust alternator voltage to this voltage
5. Observe the flickering of the lamp.
6. If all the lights are becoming bright simultaneously and going dark simultaneously, then the phase
sequence of the alternator is the same as that of the bus bars. On the other hand, if the lamps
become bright in a cyclic order, then phase sequence is opposite and in this case, any of the
supply terminals are interchanged. Make the lamps to flicker very slowly by adjusting the speed
of the DC motor. Increase the dark period.
7. When all the lamps are dark close the synchronizing switch S1, so as to put the alternator in
parallel with the bus bars. Now the alternator is synchronized with bus bars. Note down the
circulating current if any.
8. Open the Supply switch to the Dc motor, then alternator will run as a synchronous motor taking
power from the AC supply and drives the DC motor as a DC generator.
9. Close the load switch on the Dc side and switch on the lamps in the lamp load to the required
value (for no load, load is kept zero) and it is kept constant.
10 Vary the synchronous motor field resistance gradually in steps. At each step note down the
readings of all the meters and tabulate the same.
