This study module introduces students to the principles of AC power, three-phase AC circuits, and AC motors, including synchronous machines, through a wide range of practical activities.
Typical activities include:
Measure phase voltages, phase-phase voltages, and phase relationships of a three-phase supply
Measure voltage and current, and calculate power in 6-wire and 3-wire connected three-phase circuits
Diagnose faults in a dual-polarity three-phase supply
Identify the principle of an inverter
Faultfinding AC power circuits
