Electric Machine-1 (Lab) — What This Subject Is About
This is the lab for the theory paper 3.2 (Electric Machine-1). Here you do the work with your hands: reversing a DC shunt motor, brake tests, speed control of shunt and series motors, load characteristics of DC generators, transformer tests and the breakdown test of transformer oil. The PDF lists 15 practicals and says to perform any ten.
There are no theory units and no reference books listed for this subject — it is a practical subject (L 0 – P 4), worth 100 marks and 2 credits. The complete list of 15 practicals is in the Complete Syllabus section below and in the PDF.
Subject 3.5 (Practical) • Total 100 Marks • 2 Credits • L 0 – P 4 • Perform any 10 of 15 practicals • 3rd Semester — Electrical Engineering • Session 2026–27
