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 R
o
& X
o
.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 R
01
, X
01
, Z
01
, 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.

Precautions:


















Theory:
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..
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

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

www.jwjobs.net
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, V
CD
leads V
AB
by 90
0
i.e, voltages across
primary are 90
0
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 V
1
/ 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

Precautions:













Theory:
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.



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.

Precautions:









Theory:
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.




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.

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 I
a
value is increased more than rated value, then it should
be brought to rated value by adjusting the field current.
www.jntuworld.com

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 I
a
=V-E where V is the applied voltage .From the above equation it is
clear that the magnitude and phase angle of phasor I
a
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 I
a
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 I
a
,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 I
f
, 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
www.jntuworld.com
www.jntuworld.com
www.jwjobs.net
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:

3) Slip should be made as small as possible.


Theory: The values of X
d
& X
q
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 X
d
= (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. X
q
= (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.

Precautions:
1) There should not be any load on the motor initially.

3) If the wattmeter shows negative deflection, reverse either


www.jntuworld.com

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 current-
decreasing 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.

ADDITIONAL EXPERIMENT NO:-1
Parallel Operation Of Two Single Phase Transformers
Aim:-
To operate the given two 2KVA, 230/110V single phase Transformers in parallel and study the
load sharing between them when supplying resistive load .
APPRATERS:-
1. Watt meters UPF 300V/10A 2NO
300V/20A 1No
2. Voltmeter MI (0-500V) 1NO
(0-300V) 1NO
(0-150V) 1NO
3. Ammeters MI (0-10A) 2NO
(0-20A) 1NO
NAME PLATE DITEALS:-


PROCEDURE :-
a) Make connections as for circuit diagram, keep the load switch and switch S open .
b) Switch on the mains , see the volt meter reading of V
1
, if this reading is 460V(double
the secondary voltage of both the machines) then switch of and inter change the
connections of secondary of any transformer . if reads zero then the switch S can be
closed , this way the polarities can be checked since wrong polarity will short circuit
the transformers if operated in parallel .
c) Close switch S and then close the load switch.
d) For various values of load current , record terminal voltage ,current in two secondarys
,power supply by the two transformers and the total power,(do not exceed 10 A for
total current)
e) Switch of load and switch of main.
f) Determine the equivalent reactances and resistances of both transformers referred
to HV winding by SC test

CAULATIONS :-
For a given load current I
L
at an angle the current and power supply by each
transformer can be found out by the following formula

I
A
= (I
L
)X{(Z
B
)/(Z
A
+Z
B
)}

I
B
= (I
L
)X{(Z

If S is the load KVA, then the KVA shared by the transformers can be found out by

S
A
= (S)X{(Z
B
)/(Z
A
+Z

)}

S
B
= (S)X{(Z

)}
Check the result obtained with the Theoretical calculations .
RESULTS:-
a) With the help of phasor diagram verify if I
A
= I
B
= I.
b) Check if the load shared is proportional to the KVA capacities of the respective
transformers
c) From the results state if R
