16. Safety
Electricity, when improperly used, is very dangerous to people and to equipment.
This is especially true in an experimental or teaching laboratory where inexperienced personnel may use electrical equipment in experimental or nonstandard configuration.

17. Safety contd…
The knowledge and habit-forming experience to work safely around electrical equipment and the ability to design safe electrical equipment includes:-
Learning the types of electrical injuries and damage.
How the electrical injuries can be prevented.
The physiology of electrical injuries.
Steps to take when accidents occur.

18. Physiology of Electrical Injuries
There are three main types of electrical injuries:
Electrical shock
Electrical burns
Falls caused by electrical shock
A fourth type, 'sunburned' eyes from looking at electric arcs, such as arc-welding, is very painful and may cause loss of work time but is usually of a temporary nature.
Other injuries may be indirectly caused by electrical accidents, e.g., burns from exploding oil-immersed switch gear or transformers.

19. Prevention of Electrical Injuries
When hooking up a circuit, connect to the power source last, while power is off.
Before making changes in a circuit, turn off or disconnect the power first, if possible.
Never work alone where the potential of electric shock exists.
When changing an energized connection, use only one hand. Never touch two points in the circuit that are at different potentials.

20. Prevention of Electrical Injuries contd…
Know that the circuit and connections are correct before applying power to the circuit.
Avoid touching capacitors that may have a residual charge. The stored energy can cause a severe shock even after a long period of time.
Insulate yourself from ground by standing on an insulating mat where available.

21. After Accident Action
Shut off all power and remove victim from the electric circuit.
If the power cannot be shut off immediately, use an insulator of some sort, such as a wooden pole, to remove victim from the circuit.
If you are qualified in CPR, check for ventricular fibrillation or cardiac arrest. If either is detected, external cardiac massage should be started at once.
Notify EMS and the ECE Department at once.

22. After Accident Action contd…
Check for respiratory failure and take appropriate action.
Check for and treat other injuries such as fractures from a fall or burns from current entry and exit sites.
Investigations are always after accidents. As an engineer you will be involved as a part of the investigating team or in providing information to an investigator.

24. Safety Video

25. Conclusions
As a professional engineer, it will be your responsibility to prepare yourself to do your job correctly.
Learn as much as you can "up front”.
You will find that as a practicing professional if you wait until the last minute, you might have to pay a very painful price emotionally, financially, and professionally.

26. Preparations for Next Week

30. WORKSTATION CHARACTERISTICS

31. Introduction
Every engineer relies on equipment to drive and measure an electrical system under study.
These devices are rarely ideal, and have their own internal characteristics which must be accounted for in circuit design and analysis.
The internal characteristics of various devices often have a significant effect on circuit operation.
Students and engineers should understand the internal characteristics of the equipment they are using to more adequately predict actual operation in the lab.

32. Use of Laboratory Instruments-Ammeter
Ammeters are used to measure the flow of electrical current in a circuit.
For ammeters, it is important that their internal resistance be very small (ideally near zero) so they will not constrict the flow of current.
Ammeters must always be connected in series in a circuit, never in parallel with a voltage source.

33. Use of Laboratory Instruments-Voltmeter
Voltmeters are used to measure the potential difference between two points.
Since the voltmeter should not affect the circuit, the voltmeters have very high (ideally infinite) impedance.

34. Instrument Protection Rules
Set instrument scales to the highest range before applying power.
Be sure instrument grounds are connected properly. Avoid accidental grounding of "hot" leads.
Check polarity markings and connections of instruments carefully before connecting power.
Never connect an ammeter across a voltage source.
Do not exceed the voltage and current ratings of instruments.
Be sure the fuse and circuit breakers are of suitable value.

35. Lab Objective
The objective of this lab is to explore some of the internal characteristics for the NI- ELVIS workstations used in this course.
By the end of this lab:-
The student should know how to determine the internal resistance of meters and sources.
The student should understand how the internal resistance of these instruments affects the measurements.

43. Procedure-NULL OFFSET for Voltmeter
Electrical drift sometimes causes shifts in the ZERO point indicated by measurement instruments.
To eliminate the shift, the NI-ELVIS provides a NULL OFFSET function that subtracts the value indicated at the instant NULL OFFSET is turned on.
To set the voltmeter’s NULL OFFSET:
Plug leads into the DMM “VΩ” and “COM” jacks.
Clip the leads together, let the voltage reading stabilize.

57. DC MEASUREMENTS

58. Introduction
Voltage and current values may be used to determine the power consumed (or provided) by an electrical circuit.
Electric power consumption is a very important factor in all electrical applications, ranging from portable computers to megawatt industrial complexes.
Thus, an understanding of power and how it is measured is vital to all engineers.

59. Electric Charge-A Brief Review
The charge is bipolar, i.e. electrical effects are described in terms of positive and negative charges.
The electric charge exists in discrete quantities, which are integral multiples of the electronic charge, ×10-19 C.
Electrical effects are attributed to both the separation of charge and charges in motion.

60. Voltage
Whenever positive and negative charges are separated, energy is expended.
Voltage is the energy per unit charge created by the separation.
It can be expressed in differential form as:
where,
v=voltage in volts
w=energy in joules
q=charge in coulombs

61. Current Electric current is defined as the rate of charge flow.
It can be expressed in differential form as:
where
i=current in amperes
q=charge in coulombs
t=time in seconds

62. Power Power is the time rate of expending or absorbing energy.
Mathematically, energy per unit time can be expressed in differential form as:
where
p=power in watts
w=energy in joules
t=time in seconds

63. Power in terms of Voltage & Current
so, where p=power in watts v=voltage in volts i=current in amperes

64. Passive Sign Convention
Whenever the reference direction for the current in an element is in the direction of the reference voltage drop across the element (as shown in figure), use a positive sign in any expression that relates the voltage to the current.
Otherwise, use a negative sign.

65. Use of Laboratory Instruments-Ammeter
Ammeters are used to measure the flow of electrical current in a circuit.
For ammeters, it is important that their internal resistance be very small (ideally near zero) so they will not constrict the flow of current.
Ammeters must always be connected in series in a circuit, never in parallel with a voltage source.

66. Use of Laboratory Instruments-Voltmeter
Voltmeters are used to measure the potential difference between two points.
Since the voltmeter should not affect the circuit, the voltmeters have very high (ideally infinite) impedance.

67. Lab Objective By the end of this lab, the student should know:-
How to make DC measurements of voltages and currents.
How to determine power dissipation/delivery for circuit elements, branches, and various combinations of elements and branches.

104. Kirchhoff’s Current Law
The algebraic sum of all the currents at any node in a circuit equals zero.
Using the convention that currents leaving the node are considered positive and that entering the nodes are considered negative, the above circuit yields the four equations.

The algebraic sum of all the voltages around any closed path in a circuit equals zero.
Here we elect to trace the closed path clockwise, assigning a positive
algebraic sign to voltage drops.
