University of Saskatchewan EE 292 Electrical Engineering Laboratory I TRANSFORMER EQUIVALENT CIRCUITT Introduction: In this experiment, the supply voltage will be 120 volts (measured to ground) and 208 volts line to line. While these voltages are similar to residential electrical supply, there is more danger of electrical shock since these are experimental circuits. As in residential supply, the current is limited to 15 amperes by a circuit breaker, however, there is still danger of overcurrent, overheating, and sparks due to possible errors in your circuit. Safety : You should exercise EXTREME CARE during this experiment. Assemble or modify the circuit ONLY when the breakers are off. Use short wires where possible and ensure that wires are not loosely connected. Have the circuit inspected by an instructor before turning on the power. The circuit should never be touched when it is live. Lethal body currents are possible. Don’t even consider using two hands to touch a live circuit ! Ground Fault Breaker: Each of the power laboratories (2C70, 2C74 2C75) has a 3- phase supply equipped with a ground fault interrupter that detects any current that flows to the outside from the 4-wire supply (red, black, blue, and white-neutral terminals). The 3-phase supply to the entire room will be switched off if more than 10 mA flows from the 4-wire supply to a grounded item such as the table legs, the breaker panel, ground leads of an oscilloscope etc. This interrupter is to protect a student that, for example, accidentally contacts both the grounded table legs and some energized part of the circuit. Note that this interrupter DOES NOT protect a student that simultaneously touches two parts of a live circuit ! Emergency Power Down: In each of electrical la
