Pre Lab 1 DC Generator

Attention: You, as the group leader are required to do the Pre-lab among your group members. The
problems must be discussed in details and written in the provided minutes of meeting. Lab
experiments and reports must be done in a group of no more than 4 students. All the best!

Group: Section: Date:

1. Draw the equivalent circuit of a separately excited DC generator (no load) with voltmeter and
ammeter connections to show measurements of terminal voltage, armature current and
excitation winding current. [4 marks]

2. Draw the equivalent circuit of a separately excited DC generator (with load) with voltmeter and
ammeter connections to show measurements of terminal voltage, armature current and
excitation winding current. [4 marks]

3. Derive the output voltage, VT of a separately excited DC generator. [2 marks]
