Rationale:

Apart from the core subjects, some engineering subjects are included in this diploma course One of these subjects is General Engg. which aims to impart some necessary knowledge and skill about other engg disciplines. Inclusion of the subject is further justified by the fact that in practical field, any job of technician is intermingled. As such the relevant basic topics of these disciplines are included in the content of the subject.
Some study exercises along with some field work have been suggested to give feel of jobs and equipments involved.

Learning Outcomes:

After undergoing the subject, the students will be able to:

  • Identify and able to take readings on various electrical equipments(voltmeter, ammeter, CRO, wattmeter, multi-meter)
  • Determination of voltage-current relationship in a DC circuit under specific physical conditions
  • Measure resistance of an ammeter and a voltmeter
  • Verify DC circuits (Thevenin and Norton Theorem)
  • Verify Kirchhoff’s Current and Voltage Laws in a dc circuit
  • Find the ratio of inductance of a coil having air-core and iron-core respectively and observe the effect of introduction of a magnetic core on coil inductance
  • Test a lead – acid storage battery
  • Measure power and power factor in a single phase R-L-C Circuit and calculation of active and reactive powers in the circuit.
