For changing any connections you must switch-off the supply. 3. Beware of the dynamic machinery and consciously keep a distance. 4. Before switching ON the supplies, get your circuit connections approved by the instructors. 5. Be alert and always power OFF if you want to make any change in connections. 6. Make sure you switch OFF the measuring instruments once you are done with the experiment. INSTRUCTIONS REGARDING OPERATION OF LAB 1. 2. Thoroughly read the instruction set and come prepared to conduct the experiment. Before starting the experiment: (a) Come with m a n u a l w i t h the the relevant e x p e r i m e n t . (b) Note down the safe safe operating limits of the the converter. Never exceed exceed the ratings specified. (c) Write down the instruments and accessories that you need to conduct the experiment (along with their ranges, rating etc.). 3. Connect the wires, multimeters, multimeters, scope etc. as per the the circuit diagram. Get the the circuit connections verified by the instructor. 4. Start/switch-on the set (instructions are given in the instruction set). 5. Carry out the experiment experiment as per the steps given in instruction set. Record the readings/ note the waveforms. 6. All comput computat ations ions are to be carried carried out in the laborato laboratory ry itself. itself. Attach Attach g r a p h s h e e t a n d a ny additional sheet you need. 7. You are required to submit the completed lab report of the experiment of the previous turn when you enter the laboratory. EEE/INSRT F342 Power Electronics Page 3 Tips for safety and accuracy for measurements in Power Electronic Laboratory 1. Individual measurements has to be done in isolation in Power electronic systems as the reference (ground ) for most of the measurements will be at different potentials. Make sure that the oscilloscope that is used for the measurement has isolated channels for measurement. If not, please use the Power isolation section provided in the kit. Failure to use proper isolation may lead to damage to the equipment and also may result in injury to the user(s). 2. Take the appropriate probe rating/ attenuation to make sure that you operate safely and obtain accurate results. For higher voltages (greater than 100V), it is suggested to use a probe/ isolation section of 100x. For grid voltage levels, 100x must be used. 3. Always make sure that you switch OFF the power supply for making any change in connection or even for changing a measurement point. If not, you may open circuit an inductor or short circuit a capacitor inadvertently which may lead to serious damage of equipments and may result in injuries to the user(s). 4. Take note of the attenuation factor in case of probes used and/or if you are using power isolation section, (e.g:- 1x, 10x , 100x, 10mV/A) to get the scaling factor of the measured value. This information may be used as setting for the Digital storage oscilloscope to make sure that the measurement displayed is scaled appropriately. In case you are not using the setup option in DSO, take care of the scaling in your calculations. 5. If sensing resistances are used for measuring currents, please use the appropriate scaling factor to get the reading. For example, if Rsense=0.1Ω, then the scaling factor is 100mV/ A or 10A/V.
