 “Explanation”

 What Is “Proteus” ?

Proteus is a computer application that basically offers a full

construction and proper simulation of any circuit.
Other functions of this software include PCB layout,
Schematic capture and circuit designing etc.
This circuit simulation software is ideally suited for students
in learning electrical sciences because of its vast applications
in running real time simulations of circuits therefore making
it easier for students to design that exact circuit in real life.
 Lab Assignment:
“To measure the Current and voltage
flowing through each resistor”

Example:
As an example, we shell now create a simple 2
resistor series circuit consisting of a 12V DC voltage supply,
Two resistors of 2KΩ resistance each, an Ammeter connected
in series with the circuit, and a voltmeter connected in
parallel with the circuit

Vs = 12V , R1 & R2 = 2KΩ each so total resistance

RTotal = 4K.
Ammeter Reading (mA) = +3.00mA
Voltmeter Reading (Volts) = +6.00V
Lab Task (1) :

Solution:

As simulated in the Proteus software,

Voltage across R1,R2,R3 = +9.00V (all Resistors are in Parallel)
I1 = +0.90mA , I2 = +4.50mA , I3 = +9.00mA
Req = 625Ω or 0.625KΩ, So, Is = Vs/ Req , = 14.4mA
Which is equal to = I1 + I2 + I3
Lab Task (2) :

R1 R4

R2 R5 R7

R3 R6

Solution:
As simulated in the Proteus software,
Vs = 60V > Req = 15 Ω
i) R1 = 5Ω > [Using series and Parallel
Current Across R1 = +3.97A resistor addition]
Voltage Across R1 = +19.9V > Vs = 60V
ii) R2 = 14Ω > As Is = Vs/ Req
Current Across R2 = +1.99A > Is = 4A
Voltage Across R2 = +27.8V > Applying KCL to whole
iii) R3 = 3Ω Circuit
Current Across R3 = -3.97A > Is = I1+ I2+ I3+ I4+ I5+
Voltage Across R3 = +11.9V I6+ I7
iv) R4 = 4Ω > Is = 3.97A ≈ 4.00A
Current Across R4 = +1.99A
Voltage Across R4 = +7.95V
v) R5 = 10Ω
Current Across R5 = +1.19A
Voltage Across R5 = +11.9V
vi) R6 = 4Ω
Current Across R6 = -1.99A
Voltage Across R6 = +7.94V
vii) R7 = 15Ω
Current Across R7 = +0.79A
Voltage Across R7 = +11.9V
Conclusion:
a) So it is found in the 1st Task that the voltage across each
resistor is +9V (Same because all resistors are in Parallel) and
the sum of all the currents flowing through their respective
resistors is equal to the theoretical Current (I=V/R) of the
circuit.
b) So it is found in the 2nd Task that Using KVL,
V1 + V3+ V2 = Vs (Series Circuit),(V2 = V4 + V6 + V5),( V5 = V7)
(V4, V6, V5 are Parallel to V2),( V5 is parallel to V7)

19.9 + 11.8 + 27.8 = 59.6V(Simulated) ≈ 60V(Actual)

Also,
Using KCL, the sum of all the currents of each resistor is
equal to the theoretical current of the source (I = V/R).
Is = 3.97A(Simulated) ≈ 4.00A(Actual)
