3 phase power and 3 phase power generator

 3 phase power and 3 phase power generator

3 phase power generator

 3 phase power generator is a machine which generates 3 phase ac power. AC power is of two types. One is single phase and the other is multi phase. 3 phase is example of multi phase power which is very commonly used due to its special characteristics and powerful nature over single phase ac power. 3 phase power is generated in the same way as single phase power is generated. Only difference is the construction of 3 phase ac power generator. There are three seperate windings 120 degree apart each other. In a 3 phase power generator 3 windings are places 120° apart to make a complete machine having 3 separate windings in total of 360°.

A vector V is rotated in a circle completing 360 degrees. In this way the vector is passing through a sin wave as shown in the figure above. At the moment the vector is passing through 45 Degrees. At angle 90 degrees the vector passes through its maximum value. and at 180 degrees & 360 degrees the vector passes through its minimum value.

In the figure above, the generated emf or voltage is at maximum on the brown phase. The voltage of emf is increasing on the black phase. Whereas voltage or emf is decreasing on the gray phase. As you can see there are three sin waveforms each 120° apart. If all 3 phase power is added together, the vector sum would be zero. This is what is the 3 phase.

Microwave oven front panel keypad repair and modification

Image
Here is the video on youtube. You must watch it if you are a Urdu to Hindi viewer: Here is the video on youtube. You must watch it if you are an English viewer: The microwave oven is a useful machine to preheat or cook food. The microwave oven is working reliably but now a days Chinese microwave oven have big front panel keypad failure. The keypad is breaking down in one year of less time. The repair is not easy and sometimes the replacement parts are not readily available then it becomes another problem. The solution to such a problem is a modification with existing easily available parts and some wire connections to the main board. The modification is a very robust an reliable work so that will never break down or if breaks down, the repair would be way easy and low cost. Here is a little detail with images is included for such a modification work. Most of the images are from the video associated with this blog post. Anyhow it will further explain the important

Sandwich maker or sandwich grill repair and maintenance

Image
Here is a youtube video covering all these details in video: Sandwich maker or sandwich grill is a common house hold electrical appliance used in every house and every facility. They are daily use electrical appliances. They are of different make and model. One thing is common in all of them is the heating element and a sort of temperature controlling switch operated on some preset or selectable temperature range. The heating element are heated by line power and are switched off when the desired temperature is reached. By that way the grill or heating plate is heated and the toast put there is also grilled or heated by that temperature. Sandwich makers or sandwich grill are reliable equipment but some times they develop troubles. The result is no heating grill or heating plates. Normally there are electrical connection problem or temperature controlling switch problem. The heating element failure is also possible but that is a rare fault. So if a grill or sandwich

How to check SMD or surface mount resistances value from their code and test on multimeter

Test smd resistor using a multimeter Digit code for smd resistors Here is the video on this topic you can watch for further details: Surface mount resistors or SMD resistors are very commonly used in electrical and electronics circuits. They are found everywhere in all electronics equipment today. They have certain value in resistance or Ohms which is mentioned on them in the form of a digital code. Here the following image is showing a surface mounted resistors circuit where you can see the SMD resistors and the rest of soldering on the PCB. Her in this image you can see the surface mounted or SMD resistances with a digital code on them. The resistors have a specific value code on them. This code is easy to learn and off course easy to print on the small and tiny body of an SMD resistor. This code consists of three digits or three value alfa numeric code is also used. Sometimes this could be a four digit code also in case of very high precision resistors. We will only dis
