To Measure Energy Consumed in A Single Phase Circuit Using Energy Meter

This document describes an experiment to measure energy consumption in a single-phase circuit using an energy meter. The experiment involves connecting components like an ammeter, voltmeter, energy meter, and autotransformer. Readings of voltage, current, and time taken for a set number of revolutions are recorded under different load conditions. These readings are used to calculate the actual and indicated energy, and the percentage error between the two values. The aim is to demonstrate how an energy meter can be used to measure energy consumption in a single-phase circuit.

4 MEASUREMENT OF ENERGY USING SINGLE PHASE


ENERGY METER
Aim:
To measure Energy consumed in a single phase circuit using Energy meter.

Apparatus required:

SL.NO. Components Required Range Type Quantity


Ammeter (0-10) MI
1 1

Load
2 ------ LAMP --

Volt meter (0-300)


3 MI 1

Energy Meter
4 1 Ph,300V, 10A -- 1

Autotransformer 1KVA
5 230/(0-240) V 1PH 1

Formula used:
Energy meter constant= 3000 rev/kWhr
3000 Rev = 1kwhr

/
1Rev =1x1000x3600 3000 = 1200(Watt-sec)
For N Rev, Indicated energy (Ei) = N x 1200 (Watt-sec)
Calculated energy Ea = (VL x IL) x Time taken for N revolution (Watt-sec)

Where
VL –Load voltage
IL-Load current
% Error = (E I -E a) x100/Ei
ENERGY METER INTERNAL CONNECTION

TABULATION:

5.

Procedure:
1.Connections are made as per circuit diagram.
2.Supply is switched on and load is applied and Ammeter, Voltmeter
readings and Time taken by the discs for particular number of
revolution are noted using stop Watch.
3.Step 2 is repeated for various load conditions.
4.% Error is calculated

RESULT:
Thus energy consumed in a single phase circuit is measured.
