About

You will be able to

  • Explain errors, standards and the working of PMMC, moving iron and electrodynamometer instruments
  • Extend ranges of ammeters and voltmeters with shunts and multipliers
  • Measure power by wattmeters and two-wattmeter method and energy by energy meters
  • Measure resistance, inductance and capacitance with DC and AC bridges
  • Explain CT and PT, their errors and uses
  • Use CRO / DSO, digital meters and common transducers

Who it is for

  • B.Tech Electrical Engineering students of Semester 3 (AKTU)
  • Students of other universities studying the same subject who want unit-wise coaching

What you need

  • Basic Electrical Engineering
  • Network basics - AC circuits and phasors

Questions

Which syllabus does the Electrical Measurements and Instrumentation course follow?

It follows the AKTU (Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam Technical University, Lucknow) B.Tech syllabus for Electrical Measurements and Instrumentation. If your own university's syllabus differs, the centre follows your university syllabus.

Will this help in the university examination?

Yes. Teaching is unit-wise as per the AKTU scheme, with numericals, previous-year question practice, MCQ tests and doubt sessions before the semester exam.

Is this linked to the lab?

Yes. The EMI Lab of the same semester uses these instruments and bridges; theory and lab are taught together.
