    Wajeh
    This document describes an experiment on the performance of electrical power under an inductive load. The objectives are to connect a single-phase power supply and observe its operation under an inductive load. Students will measure the effect of different inductive loads and determine efficiency. The procedure connects various inductive loads to a power supply and measures voltage, current, power factor and other readings. Results are recorded and apparent power, phasor diagrams and efficiency are calculated.
