Task 1: Circuit diagram and patching:
Turn off the 67-132 power supply unit.

Connect the 67-132 power supply for single phase

(Configuration B). Set the firing pulse selector switch to

the 0-180 position.

Connect the Load Units to the 70-220 panel as shown in Figure A-3-3 and the
circuit diagram in
Figure A-3-4.

 A, B & C position of meters are to measure

supply readings. A*, B* & C* position of meters

are to measure load readings.

Single Phase Half Wave Resistive Load:

Switch off the 67-132 power supply

Ensure that the switches in the 67-201 are all open, the shorting link across the
inductor is present, and that the 67-142 switches are set to on.

Turn on the 67-132 power supply unit and press the green power on button on the
70-220

Sketch the waveforms as displayed on the oscilloscope, and record the peak
voltage and current in the first column of a table similar to that shown in Table 3-
1.

Record the rms voltage and mean voltages across the load and the rms supply
voltage and current in the first column of the table

Also observe and record the two traces on the oscilloscope.

Resistive plus Inductive Load

Switch off the 67-132 power supply
 Remove the shorting link across the inductor and ensure that all the switches on
the 67-201 are off, and that all the switches on the 67-142 are on.

Ensuring that the inductance is at minimum (core fully out), switch on the unit.
Turn on the 67-132 power supply unit and press the green power on

button on the 70- 220 Observe the waveforms as displayed on the

oscilloscope

Continue to observe the waveforms as the inductance is slowly increased by re-

inserting the core. With the core fully inserted, sketch the waveforms as displayed
on the oscilloscope, on to suitable graph paper and record the peak voltage and
current in the second column of the table with the core fully inserted.

Also observe and record the two traces on the oscilloscope.

NOTE If both waveforms on the oscilloscope are superimposed on each other,

this practical demonstrates a very good example of the phase shift obtained
with an inductive circuit.

Record the rms and mean voltage and current across the load, and the rms
supply voltage and current, in the second column of Table 3-1.
Resistive plus Capacitive Load
Switch off the 67-132 power supply

Replace the shorting link across the inductor and ensure that the 10µF switch
on the 67-201 is on, and that all the switches on the 67-142 are on.

Turn on the 67-132 power supply unit and press the green power on button on the
70-220
Observe the waveforms as displayed on the oscilloscope and record.

Conclusion:
In the concerned lab, I have learnt about designing bridge rectifiers. Full
wave or bridge rectifiers works same as half wave rectifiers but with two
diode pairs to conduct one pair at one half cycle and second pair at other half
cycle in order to provide full rectification of input signal. The load is purely
resistive when the inductance is shorted out and the capacitor is on open circuit.
The load is purely resistive-capacitive when capacitance is in parallel with the
resistive load and inductance shorted out.
The load is purely resistive-inductive when inductance is in series with the
resistive load and capacitance is on open circuit.
Analysing effects of passive elements on output waveforms was the critical part of
the lab. Understanding about designing Bridge rectifiers on and MATLAB
Simulink have been developed after doing this lab.
