PHASE SEQUANCE
OBJECTIVES
To complete this laboratory you need to determine the phase sequence of a three phase source.
DISCUSSION
Phase sequence is usually indicated on bus bars by a colour code of some kind, or it may be found by using phase sequence indicator, commercially available. In the absence of such a decide, the phase sequence can be found by connecting in star two equal resistor and a capacitor to the three terminals of the power source as shown in Figure 2-1. The voltage across the two resistors will be found to be unequal and the phase sequence is in the order, (high voltage)-(low voltage)-(capacitor). For example, if the voltages across the resistors are 20 V and 80 V as shown in figure 2-1, the phase sequence is B-A-C. The voltages succeed each other in the sequence B-A-C-B-A-C; hence the sequence B-A-C is the same as the sequence A-C-B or the sequence C-B-A.

2) Voltage of E1 and E2 was measured and they are 365.4 vac and 96.15 vac respectively.
3) The phase sequence was determined and this is 1-2-3.
4) When the phase was according to the direction the power supply was connected.
5) While we connected the phase sequence was connected then we also connected the power supply and the sequence was 4-5-6.
6) Voltmeter was connected through the three terminal 1-4,2-5and 3-6. The voltage according to the sequence is E1-4= 10.29 vac, E2-5= 9.527 vac, E3-6= 9.937vac.
7) When we put the power supply clock wise we get metering close to zeros and anticlockwise we get the voltage close to voltage 171.6vac, 171.8vac, 171.8vac.
REAL POWER & REACTIVE POWER
OBJECTIVES
To complete this laboratory you should be able to interpret the meaning of positive, negative, real & reactive power. Also, observe the flow of real and reactive power in three phase circuits.
DISCUSSION
In three phases, three wire Ac circuits two wattmeters are needed to measure the real power while three phase, four wire circuits require three. These meters may be combined into a single wattmeter of special construction, which greatly simplifies the problem of adding the reading of two or three wattmeters to obtain the total three phase power. A typical three phase wattmeter has three inputs terminals and outputs too.
pic
In addition, the three phase alternating circuits may involve many types of circuit’s and devices, but the flow of active and reactive power can always be determined by introducing wattmeter and varmeter.

RESULTS
1) Using the load of 1200? the circuit was connected according to the figure.
2) The inductive load was replaced in the place of resistive load. And the value was recorded.
3) And the procedure was repeated by twice.
4) The real power was affected when the capacitive load was switched off.
5) The real power was affected when the resistive load was switched off.
6) We were agreed that whatever we used for all intents and purposes the capacitive load supplying most of the reactive power required by the inductive load.
7) The motor absorb both real and reactive power.
8) We get the following results. pic

PHASE ANGLE & VOLTAGE DROP BETWEEN SENDER & RECIVER
OBJECTIVES
To complete this laboratory you need to cover, the receiver and voltage. And observe the phase angle between the voltage at the sending and the receiving and of the transmission line. Also, the line voltage drop when the sending & receiving 7 voltages have the same magnitude.
DISCUSSION
The capacitors should deliver reactive power equal to that consumed by the inductive load. This produces a parallel resonance effect in which reactive power required by the inductance is in effect supplied by the capacitance and none is furnished by the transmission line. So, the reactive power which the capacitors must supply to regulate the voltage, isn’t easy to calculate. Our purpose of this experiment is to determine the reactive power by trial & error. And adjusting the capacitors until the receiver end voltage is equal to sender & voltage.in the end, loads which draw both real and reactive power, the capacitors must be tailored to compensate first, For the inductive components of the load and second, for the resistive component.
RESULTS
1) The impedance was set at 200?. The voltmeter was connected according to the figure. The circuit was connected in three phase variable voltage supply.
2) By using the three phase voltage load E1 was adjusted to 350 v and we kept that constant. We increased the resistive loading steps. And calculated the values.
pic
3) Then we connected the three phase balanced capacitive load in parallel with the resistive load. We repeated the step by two times. And tried adjusted the value close to 350 v.

4) In this experiment we observed significant voltage drop along transmission line even when the voltages E1 and E2 at the sender and receiver ends are equal in magnitude. pic
5) We used the results of procedure step 4 we calculated the voltage , current , real power and reactive power per phase .
CONCLUSION
We reduced all voltages and powers to a per phase basis, assumed a star connection. Since E1 and E2 are line to line voltages the corresponding line to line neutral voltages are 0.577 (1v3) times the line to line voltages.
Real power Q2 is smaller than P1 because of the line I^2R loss line transmission line.
We measured the current directly but measurement of the real and reactive power and knowledge of the voltages was sufficient to enable us to calculate everything about the line.
