Power diode single phase Bridge rectifier .


Lab Title: Power diode single phase Bridge rectifier .
Objective: Our main objective is to to become familiar with the process of full wave  rectification using Bridge Rectifier.
Apparatus:
       i.            Power diode
     ii.            Voltage Source
  iii.            Resisters (220 ohm)
  iv.            Inductor (0.8H)
     v.            Voltmeters and Ammeters
  vi.            Connection cables
vii.             LV-DEC software for analysis.

Introduction:
The process of converting alternating voltage to direct voltage at the output is known as rectification.We are using four diodes in the form of a Bridge.During each half cycle two diodes are active or in forward bias region.We also use the resistive load first and the inductive load.

Procedure:
·        Install the power supply, the resistive loads, the DC voltmeter/ammeter and the power diodes module in the workstation.
·        Make sure that the main power switch of the power supply is set to 0. Set the voltage control knob to 0. Connect the power supply to a three-phase wall receptacle.
·        Plug the Power supply line cord into a wall receptacle.  Set the rocker switch of the power supply to the 1(on position).
·        Make sure that the toggle switches on the resistive Load are all set to the 0.
·        In the last observe the three phase waveform, and measure the output parameters.


Precautions:
1.     Make sure that the main power switch of the power supply is set to the 0 (OFF) Position.
2.     Make the circuit neat and clean.
3.     Make sure that the toggle switches on the resistive load are all set to the 0 (open) positions.
4.     Take the reading very carefully.

Conclusion:
We see the process of  full wave rectification using bridge rectifier under different loads.For both positive half and negative half cycle diodes conduct the current and the output comes.
