RESEARCH WORK NO. 1


FAMILIARIZATION WITH AC LABORATORY APPARATUS
OBJECTIVE:
To name, draw and give the functions of the different
apparatus used in AC Circuits Laboratory.
Familiarization with the physics equipment includes
learning how to take good care of the instruments. If a
piece of equipment is broken or is not functioning properly,
it should be reported immediately to your laboratory
instructor.

PROCEDURE:
1. Search for the different AC laboratory (as shown in
Table below, Minimum, you can add if you want)
Apparatus used in AC Circuits Laboratory classes.
2. Complete the next table with the missing information.
Use separate paper (maximum of 4 apparatus per bond
paper)

Name of
Drawing Function or Use
Apparatus
- The galvanometer
is the device used
for detecting the
Galvanometer presence of small
current and voltage
or for measuring
their magnitude.
- Magnets are those
things which produce
magnetic fields.
Different They attract those
Magnets objects which have
opposite charges,
and repel those that
possess the same
charge.

1
- Used for providing
a source of
temporary, easily
transportable
Mini Generator electric power, and
are very commonly
found in daily
operation on all
manner of work and
leisure sites.
- The instrument,
which is used to
measure the
AC Ammeter Alternating Current
that flows through
any branch of
electric circuit is
called AC ammeter.
- The instrument,
which is used to
measure the AC
AC Voltmeter voltage across any
two points of
electric circuit is
called AC
voltmeter.
-An oscilloscope is
a device that
allows you to see
how voltage changes
Oscilloscope over time by
displaying a
waveform of
electronic signals.

2
-A potentiometer is
a three-terminal
Potentiometer resistor with a
sliding or rotating
contact that forms
an adjustable
voltage divider.
-Audio generator,
also called a signal
generator in some
applications, is an
Audio electronic device
Generator that artificially
creates sounds
frequencies. The
device creates an
electrical signal and
converts it into
sound
-A digital
multimeter is a
super handy tool for
AC DMM quickly measuring
voltage, resistance,
continuity, and
current in many
types of electrical
circuits.
-In electronic
circuits, resistors
are used to reduce
Resistor current flow, adjust
signal levels,
to divide
voltages, bias active
elements, and
terminate transmission
lines, among other
uses

3
- Inductors are
typically used as
Inductor energy storage
devices in switched-
mode power devices
to produce DC
current.
- Capacitors are
devices which store
electrical charge.
They are a basic
component of
Capacitor electronics and have a
host of various
applications. The most
common use for
capacitors is energy
storage.
- A function
generator is usually a
piece of electronic
Function test
Generator equipment or software 
used to generate
different types of
electrical waveforms o
ver a wide range
Of frequencies.
- A breadboard is
used to build and
test circuits quickly
Breadboard before finalizing any
circuit design. The
breadboard has many
holes into which
circuit components
like ICs and
resistors can be
inserted.

4
- An electric
generator is a
Generator device that converts
turns mechanical energy
obtained from an
external source into
electrical energy as
the output.

The wattmeter is an
instrument for
measuring the electric
active power (or the
Wattmeter average of the rate of
flow of electrical
energy) in watts of
any given circuit.
