Name of experiment: Introduction to the Instruments used in

Measurement Lab
Introduction :
Electrical engineering makes extensive use of glass and ceramic
components because of their superior insulating qualities, high
thermal stability, and resilience to environmental influences. In order
to produce sophisticated parts for contemporary technology, this
interdisciplinary field integrates ideas from solid-state physics,
materials science, and engineering. To push the limits of what these
materials can accomplish, researchers and engineers concentrate on
customizing their qualities for certain high-tech applications.

Objectives:
1. The different electrical measurement devices used in
Electrical and Electronic Engineering (EEE) are introduced.

2. Being aware of the principles and operation of every


measurement device.

3. To get knowledgeable about how to handle and use electrical


measurement equipment correctly.

4. To gain hands-on experience in precisely measuring electrical


factors as resistance, voltage, and current.

DC Type Ammeter:
Principle : By measuring the voltage drop across a low-resistance
shunt, which is proportional to the current passing through the circuit,
a DC ammeter may determine the current.
Use: Measures the current in a direct current (DC) circuit.

AC Type Ammeter:

Principle: By transforming alternating current into a proportionate


magnetic field that powers a moving coil or iron mechanism, an AC
ammeter determines the effective value (RMS) of the current.
Use: Measures the current in an alternating current (AC) circuit.

DC Type Voltmeter:

Principle : By putting a high-resistance coil across the circuit, a DC


voltmeter can measure voltage since the moving coil's deflection is
proportional to the applied direct voltage.
Use: Measures the voltage in a direct current (DC) circuit.

AC Type Voltmeter:
Use: Measures the voltage in an alternating current (AC) circuit

Principle : By first converting AC signals to DC and then deflecting a


moving coil mechanism proportionate to the voltage, an AC voltmeter
measures voltage.
Resistor:
Use: Limits the flow of electric current
in a circuit.

Principle: According to Ohm's Law, a resistor limits the amount of


electrical current that can pass through a circuit. Its resistance, which
varies according on the material and dimensions, prevents current
flow and transforms electrical energy into heat.

Multimeter:
Use: Measures multiple electrical parameters, including voltage,
current, and resistance.

Principle: A multimeter uses several internal circuits to detect voltage,


current, and resistance. It alternates between modes to measure
electrical parameters using a digital display or a moving coil.
Wattmeter:
Use: Measures the power consumption of an electrical device.

Principle: A wattmeter uses two coils—current and potential coils—


to detect the product of voltage and current in order to measure
electric power.
