Elementary Electricity Trainer
Provides the necessary power supply and parts for a
first exposure to electricity in a hands-on fashion. The
unit is self-contained with a 6VAC power supply and a
diode to convert the 6VAC to unfiltered 6VDC. All the
materials required to complete the manual are mounted
on lexan-faced printed circuit board.
The unit has two resistors, three
6V lamps and sockets, a DC motor, a buzzer, DPST and SPST switches, a PBNO, PBNC
and the DC diode, along with the step-down transformer that converts 115 VAC,
50/60 Hz to 6VAC nominal.
Interconnection between parts is
accomplished using double-ended alligator clip leads, which are included. The
unit plugs into any standard 115 VAC outlet. Includes a student lab manual/ text
that has a brief explanation of each experiment, followed by the experiment
details and then review questions. Some of the experiments are explanations only
of electrical concepts, most of which could be performed with the trainer by
purchasing an optional digital voltmeter. Some of the 40 experimental areas
covered are: Magnetism and Electro-magnetism, Electric Circuits, Motors and the
Buzzer, Insulators and Conductors, Series Circuits and Parallel Circuits,
Batteries and the Current Meter, Series Resistance and Parallel Resistance,
Variable Resistors and Switching Circuits, Use of a Galvanometer, Current and
Motor Speed Control, Diodes as DC Switches, Dual Mode Lamp Switch, Resistor
Dissipation, Voltage Drop, Series Resistors, Computer Logic, Circuits, Power
Supply Regulation. (1EM)
