OBJECTIVE: The study of the course will help the students to apply all types of common electrical and electronic instruments with the knowledge of their construction and working.
Classification - measurement of voltage and current - permanent magnet moving coil and moving iron meters - dynamometer type meters - measurement of inductance and capacitance using bridges
Dynamometer type wattmeters, Induction type energy meters - single phase and poly-phase, testing and calibration of energy meters power factor meters - synchroscopes.
Ballistic galvanometers and flux meters, B.H curve and permeability measurements - iron loss measurements by magnetic squares and C.R.O.
Theory - ratio and phase errors of current and potential transformers – capacitor voltage transformers -use of instrument transformers with wattmeters.
KVAh and KVARh meters - Maximum demand indicators - meggar- laboratory measuring instruments- Standard signal generators and function generators ,TVM and frequency meter, distortion factor meters and phase meters.
