Determination of the resistance & capacitance of a capacitor with power supply and 4 meters (C.R.) Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : SCL-EELE-12265
Indian Lab Suppliers supplies the Determination of the resistance & capacitance of a capacitor with power supply and 4 meters (C.R.) (Product ID: 12265) as part of its electronics engineering lab equipment range. It finds the equivalent resistance and the capacitance of a capacitor by the three-ammeter method with a voltmeter.
Quick Answer
The capacitor under test is connected in parallel with a 120 ohm, 30 W resistor and fed from a mains transformer with secondary tappings at 20, 30, 40, 50 and 60 V (500 mA). Three AC milliammeters (0-500 mA) read the resistor current, the capacitor current and the total current, and an AC voltmeter (0-75 V) reads the applied voltage. Because the three currents form a phasor triangle, students calculate the phase angle of the capacitor branch and from it the capacitor’s loss resistance and capacitance at 50 Hz. The board is self-contained. The resistor runs warm at higher tappings, so avoid touching it.
