Precautions:

2. SPST Switch is in open position.
Procedure:
1. Connect the circuit as shown in circuit diagram.
2. Observing the precautions switch ON the supply.
3. Two readings of the voltmeter connected across switch K is observed. If it
reads zero which means that the two secondary emfs are opposing each
other, then switch K is closed. If it reads twice the secondary rated voltage
the secondary terminals of any of the transformer are interchanged and then
the switch K is closed to make it read zero reading.
4. The load switch is closed and total load on the transformer is increased in
steps. At each step, the readings of the various meters are noted down. The
total load is increased till the current supplied reaches the maximum load
current of both the transformers when connected parallely.

1. Field rheostat must be kept in minimum resistance position.
2. Armature rheostat must be kept in maximum resistance position.
3. Initially Rectifier should be in zero voltage position.
Procedure:
O.C Test:
1. Connect the circuit as shown in circuit diagram.
2. With the Rectifier in the zero voltage position, TPST Switch open and the
rheostats in their proper positions, the D.C Supply to the motor is switched
ON.
3. The D.C Motor is brought to its rated speed and thus the alternator by
properly varying the armature and/or field rheostat of the motor.
4. Now, the alternator field is excited by applying the D.C voltage through the
Rectifier in steps. At each step the field current and the corresponding
generated voltage are noted. This procedure is repeated till the voltage
generated is much beyond rated voltage of the alternator.
5. Reduce the alternator field excitation to zero level.
S.C Test:
1. With the rectifier in the minimum voltage position, the TPST Switch is closed.
2. Increase field excitation gradually till the Short Circuit Current of the
alternator reaches the rated current of the alternator.
3. Note down the field current required to circulate the rated short circuit
current. Tabulate the readings taken during the O.C Test and S.C Tests.

3. Adjust the field rheostat of the D.C Motor so that it runs slightly below the
synchronous speed of synchronous machine.
4. Give A.C Supply to the Alternator with the help of variac so that rated current
flows in the synchronous machine.
