MEASUREMENT OF RESISTANCE
AIM:- To determine the value of Armature resistance, Series field resistance and
Shunt field resistance of the given DC compound generator by Voltmeter-Ammeter
method.
MACHINE DETAILS:
DC COMPOUND GENERATOR
Rated Voltage :
Rated Current :
Rated Power :
Rated Speed :
APPARATUS REQUIRED:
THEORY: Ohm’s law states that ,the temperature remains constant, when the
current flowing through a conductor is direcly proportional to the potential
difference between the two ends and inversely proportional to the resistance of the
conductor.
I = V/R , R = V/I.
Sl;No. V I Ra = V/I
Ammeter reading I =
Resistance Ra = V/I =
Mean Ra =
Sl;No. V I Ra = V/I
Ammeter reading I =
Mean Rse =
Sl;No. V I Ra = V/I
Ammeter reading I =
Resistance Ra = V/I =
Mean Rsh =
PROCEDURE:
Connections are made as per the connection diagram (1).A low volt DC
supply is applied ,by varying the rheostat different readings are taken, from
the volt meter and Ammeter and are tabulated.Repeat more set of readings
by adjusting the rheostat.From this Armature resistance can be calculated
by using the equation.
Connections are made as per the connection diagram (2).A low volt DC
supply is applied ,by varying the rheostat different readings are taken, from
the volt meter and Ammeter and are tabulated. Repeat more set of readings
by adjusting the rheostat. From this Series field resistance can be calculated
by using the equation.
Connections are made as per the connection diagram (3).A 230 volt DC
supply is applied ,by varying the rheostat different readings are taken, from
the volt meter and Ammeter and are tabulated. Repeat more set of readings
by adjusting the rheostat. From this Shunt field resistance can be calculated
by using the equation.
