CODE OF CONDUCT
Please take note of the following regulations. These regulations are in addition to the standard rules
and regulations as determined by the TUT. Please familiarise yourself with the TUT rules and
regulations as set out in the student diaries received on registration.
4.1
ATTENDANCE
Regular attendance of all the lectures is of primary importance. It is the learners responsibility to sign
the register each week. A minimum attendance of 75% is mandatory for all courses. In a 30 week year,
8 classes that have not been attended and for which you have not furnished a valid doctors letter or
other proof of extenuating circumstances, amounts to 25% absenteeism. This level of absenteeism will
lead to exclusion from the final moderation at the end of the year, which means that you will fail the
course and will have to repeat it the following year.
PAGE 9 OF 47
4.2
CLASSROOM BEHAVIOUR
Students are required to arrive on time for lectures. Students are also required to behave in the
classroom in a way that will not distract other students attention from the lecture or distract the lecturer
during the lecture. The lecturer has the right to send any student out of the classroom who continues to
distract lectures or fellow students in class he/she has been warned against it.
4.3
RESPONSIBILITIES OF STUDENTS
It is your responsibility to make a success of learning in this course. To this end you are encouraged to
attend class, write set tests and hand in your assignments/projects on the set due dates.
It is also your responsibility to keep up to date with course arrangements (like the time table for the
semester), changes and new information by attending class regularly and visiting the course notice
board and WebCT regularly. The lecturer will take no responsibility for any information that you missed
from any of these resources.

LEARNING COMPONENT
Modern society has adapted during the last hundred and fifty years to embrace the fruits of science.
This trend is even more pronounced in the field of electrical energy. We use it to cook our food, to keep
us warm, to keep us cool during summer and to give us light during night time.
The bulk of electrical energy is however used in the manufacturing sector. Much of the energy is used
to generate heat, where it is in competition with gas systems, think of furnaces, welders and boilers.
The most useful aspect of electricity is however the ease with which it can be transformed to
mechanical energy. This fact becomes clear when you compare the size, complexity and logistical
demands of an electrical machine and a diesel motor. The electrical machine (for the same power
rating) is smaller, less complex and does not require either a fuel tank or constant refueling.
Considering these factors it is hardly surprising to realise that nearly 53% of all electrical energy
produced in the USA is supplied to electrical machines, (The trend in South Africa is not much
different). The use of electrical machines is not however confined to industry. Most appliances in the
home depend on some form of electrical motor. Think for example about refrigerators (compressors),
PCs (disk drive motors and fans), microwaves (turntable drives) and blow dryers.
1.1
It is clear that the modern electrical engineer/technician can hardly operate without a good working
background of electrical machines. Therefore the purpose of this course in conjunction with electrical
machines III & IV is designed to give students a working knowledge of electrical machines, their
construction, operation and capabilities.
1.2
PAGE 11 OF 47
Electrical Machines II is closely linked with all fundamental courses of the Power Engineering field. This
course will build upon previous knowledge and some competency is required to understand the
contents of this subject. Students will be expected to have a sound knowledge of Electrical Engineering
I and II and mathematics. Knowledge and skills gained in this subject shall be useful in higher level
subjects such as Electrical Machines III & IV. Skills learned from the mentioned courses which will be
required are:
Understanding of voltage, current, resistivity and their functional relationships ohms law.
1.3
COURSE OUTCOMES
2.
2.1
Describe and analyse the basic concept of electromagnetism and its application to relays,
contactors and single phase transformers
Describe the principle of operation, construction, types, fundamental theory, testing /
performance evaluation and analysis of the single-phase transformers.
Analyze the basic concepts, fundamental theories relating to the construction and operation of
DC Machines
ASSESSMENT
ASSESSMENT METHODS AND CRITERIA
Assessment of this course will include written tests and assignments, as indicated in the schedule
under Section A.
Various assessment methods applied will focus on criteria that will enable the
lecturers to determine whether you have achieved the learning outcomes. The assessment criteria
relevant to each learning outcome are detailed in Section 3.
2.2
ASSESSMENT RULES
PAGE 12 OF 47
The general rules of TUT regarding assessment apply. You are advised to familiarise yourself with
these rules, as they are applied stringently. It is important for the learner to note that each test or
assignment is very crucial in that his / her year mark (predicate mark) will be formed by the sum of all
tests, assignments, and practical projects.
Should the learner miss one of the official tests, a second chance or sick test shall be given on
condition that the learner furnishes us (lecturers) with a sick note from a doctor confirming his / her
illness. This must be done as soon as possible. Marks will be deducted from students who miss
assignment deadlines.
The contact times, contact details and office numbers for each lecturer is given above in section A.
2.3
MARKING SYSTEM
The learner shall be awarded for his / her good work when it comes to assessments (tests,
assignments, practical and projects). For group work the same amount of points / marks will be
awarded to each member of each group. This is only true for both assignments and practical projects
only.
When it comes to formarive and summative assessments, the learner will be evaluated individually. The
learner must read the instructions carefully and make sure he / she understand exactly what is
expected of them. The leaner must show all his / her workings and he / she should write neatly. Both
positive and negative marking are applicable depending on the type of question asked.
2.4
YEAR MARK
Practicals and tests will contribute to the assessment process. Two formal tests and the practical mark
will complete the final year mark of each student. A sick test will be offered towards the end of the
semester. Individual practical tests will be done at the end of the semester. Each student will be asked
to do one of the practicals done during the semester. The work will be assessed by the lecturer. The
class test component will take the form of either five class tests or two class tests and a task. Any
missed class test will imply a mark of 0%.
Please note this subject is an examination subject, implying all the examination regulations as
published by the TUT applies. Each learner must qualify for exam admission and the exam mark and
year mark will contribute equally to the final mark.
PAGE 13 OF 47
A minimum mark of 40 % is required by the learner to qualify or gain entry to sit and write the final
examination. The predicate mark is calculated as shown in Table one below.

Predicate Mark
Predicate marks are put on the faculty notice boards. If you have queries about your mark, you must
immediately consult your course lecturer (contact details are given above), before predicate
day. Once the predicate mark is entered on TUTs mainframe computer, the mark cannot be changed.
2.5
MODERATION
At least 50% of the total assessments in Electrical Machines II are subject to external moderation. The
name and the contact details of the appointed moderator are given in Section A. The moderation
process is according to the applicable rules and practices for the institution. The purpose of moderation
is to ensure that justice has been done when marking and awarding marks to the learner and also that
the assessment is at right standard and level as reflected in the study guide and prospectus.
The moderate enjoys the right to change (up or lower) all or some of marks that the lecturer has
awarded to each learner. He can order re-marking of all the scripts when he feels that marking and
allocation of marks were not done properly and satisfactorily. The learner can be assured that whatever
marks that appear in his / her academic record are true and correct. However, the student / learner
reserve the right to apply for re-marking of their scripts in case they are not satisfied by their results.
There is a certain fee that the learner must pay during his / her application for re-marking.
PAGE 14 OF 47
2.6
PROMOTION REQUIREMENTS
A minimum pass mark of 50 % is needed and is enough for the learner to pass the subject or to be
promoted to the next level and be able to do the other subjects whose pre-requisites is Electrical
Machines III. Such subjects are highlighted in section B paragraph 1.2.
The 50 % is obtained by summing up the predicate mark with the final examination mark and then
dividing the sum by two (2) to get the average or pass mark. The following equation or expression
shows how this is done:
Any final mark ranging from 45 % to 48 % will qualify the learner to sit and write the supplementary
examination / Re-Examination. Please note that the same original predicate mark still stands, i.e. the
learner must get a mark in the supplementary examination that when added to the predicate mark and
the sum divided by 2, the final pass mark is 50 % or more in order to pass the subject. The following
equation or expression shows how this is done:
Should the learner fail to obtain a final mark of 50 % or more after the supplementary examination, the
learner has to repeat the subject the next semester provided that he / she is not excluded.
3.
ASSIGNMENTS
This course comprises both a theory and application component. Your mastery of that theory is
assessed at regular intervals. More importantly, the application of theory is assessed through
