Rationale:

Diploma holders in Electrical Engineering have to work on various jobs in the field as well as in testing laboratories and on control panels, where he performs the duties of installation, operation, maintenance and testing by measuring instruments. Persons working on control panels in power plants, substations and in industries will come across the use of various types of instruments and have to take measurements.
Instruments used to read and observe the general electrical quantities like current, voltage, power, energy, frequency, resistance etc and their wave shapes, have been incorporated in this subject. So the technician will know the construction and use of various types of electrical instruments.

Learning Outcomes:

After undergoing the subject, student will be able to:

  • Connect and repair different indicating and recording instruments in electric circuits
  • Measure different electrical quantities like current, voltage, power, energy, power factor, frequency etc.
  • Select the type and range of instruments to be used for the job
  • Operate CT (Current Transformer) and PT (Potential Transformer) for measurement
  • Select and use suitable sensors for measurements of different non-electrical quantities
  • Use instruments for measuring different electrical quantities
  • Use sensors for measuring non electrical quantities
  • Operate on smart metering system in industry

Instructional Strategy:

After making the students familiar with measuring instruments, they should be made conceptually clear about the constructional features and make them confident in making connection of various measuring instruments. Teacher should demonstrate the application of each measuring instrument in laboratory and encourage students to use them independently.

Means of Assessment:

  1. Assignments and quiz/class tests, mid-term and end-term written tests, model/prototype making
  2. Actual laboratory and practical work, model/prototype making, assembly and disassembly exercises and viva-voce
