Lab Subjects (Subject Code): (a) Power Electronics (ETEE 353)

About The Lab: 

Power Electronics Laboratory deals with the practical implementation of the theoretical aspects perused during the lectures. The whole polishing of the theoretical concepts is done via experimentation. The laboratory consists of kits related to rectifiers, choppers, AC voltage controllers, cyclo-converters and inverters. Individual components are also made available for enhanced understanding of the conceptual nuisances.

 

Hardware Details: SCR &TRAIC, MOSFET, UJT, Single phase HWR, Single phase fully controlled, AC phase control, Cycloconverter, Buck and Boost converter, TYPE-C Chopper and SPWM Inverter kit, 2 computers (I-5 processor, 4/8 GB RAM,)
