Electrical Machines Laboratory

Catalog description

This laboratory supports the machines class through experimental work with dissectible and commercial electrical machines. Students will: Assemble and test commutator machines, synchronous machines, and induction machines; characterize machine performance in terms of regulation, efficiency, and power; synchronize a machine to the line and control real and reactive power flows; carry out tests to determine a generator's synchronous reactance. Corequisite: ECE 303
