Single Phase Power Measurement Experiment

This type system has three areas of loads.

Single phase power measurement experiment.

To study and demonstrate the two wattmeter method of measuring the power in 3 phase networks. One wattmeter 4 wire system the single wattmeter is connected between one line and neutral in a three phase 4 wire system see figure 1. Two digital multi meters from the stockroom. Measure and record the cold resistance of the stator of the induction motor.

Most load situations can be modeled with the three types of load categories shown in the following list. The total power drawn from a three phase supply is found by adding the separate values of power consumed by each phase. Power in a nonlinear system driven by a sinusoidal voltage waveform 4. Power in a linear system driven by a periodic voltage waveform 3.

However this method can also be used in 3 phase 3 wire delta connected load where power consumed by each load is required to be determined separately. To measure the single phase power by using three voltmeter method. To perform short circuit test on a single phase transformer. The connection for single phase power measurement using a dynamo meter type wattmeter is shown in figure below.

To measure three phase power by using two wattmeter method. Measurement of parameters of choke coil the following experiments are required to be conducted as compulsory experiments. 240 volt l1 l2 loads 120 volt l1 n loads and 120 volt l2 n loads. In order to measure the power the load current must pass through the current coil c c and hence it is connected in series with the load whereas the voltage across the load must appear across the pressure coil p c of the meter.

Calibration of dynamometer power factor meter 3. To measure single phase power by using three ammeter method. To verify thevenin. Go back to three phase power measurements single phase three wire connection.

Calibration of single phase energy meter using phantom loading method with rss meter as standard 2. The measurement of current and voltage 5. Single phase 240 120 volt source figure 5 represents a standard single phase 240 120 volt distribution system. Three phase power measurements objectives to demonstrate the line and phase relations in 3 phase balanced networks.

R feedback induction motor 415v 3 phase supply variac mv1300 w power measurement switch box feedback dc generator single phase switch resistor bank mv1100 415v 220v b delta connection 220v shunt connection m l v2 a2 watt meter vi ai a. This is common in north american residential applications where one. In this system shown in figure 11 the voltages are produced from one center tapped transformer winding and all voltages are in phase. Figure 10 single phase two wire and dc measurements.

Three wattmeter method is used to measure power in 3 phase 4 wire circuits. Now we will explain the measurement three phase power measurement using three wattmeter method. The measurement of single phase power and power factors 6.
