THE WAVEFORMS OF SUPPLIED VOLTAGE &EMF INDUCED
IN SECONDARY COIL ON OSCILLOSCOPE

Performance Objective
Upon successful completion of this experiment, the student will be able to
 To understand the input and output voltage
waveforms
 To Compare the phase displacement of two voltages

Equipment:
 Single Phase Transformer
 Single Phase supply
 AC Ammeter & Voltmeter
 AC Regulated Supply
 Oscilloscope

Theory:
The E2 & V1 are 180 degree phase shift to each other as shown in oscilloscope.

Figure 12.1(oscilloscope)

This is According to Lenz’s Law which states that: If the magnetic field of
current i1 induces another electric current,i2, the direction of i2 is opposite that of
i1. If these currents are in two circular conductors ℓ1 and ℓ2 respectively, then
the currents i1 and i2 must counter-rotate. The opposing currents will repel each
other as a result.
This Induced field must be associated with a current - the INDUCED
CURRENT in the loop whose direction is determined by the first version of the
RH rules - the one for predicting B and current - NOT the force one. Of course,
the Induced EMF direction is clearly predicted by thinking of conventional
currents flowing from positive to negative.

Procedure:
1. First of all single phase supply is given to primary side of transformer
2. It is supplied through AC Regulator to get regulated supplied voltage
3. AC voltmeter is connected across sec: winding
4. Oscilloscope is connected each 2 terminals(channel) is attached across each
primary and secondary winding
5. Waveforms are seen at oscilloscope screen.

CONNECTIONS:
