After successful completion of the course, students are able to...

1. properly measure current and voltage, build differentiator and integrator circuits and measure their capacitances with an oscilloscope, as well as measure the power in three-phase systems
2. use measurement devices in different simple circuits
3. understand the fundamental principles of power electronics and use an oscilloscope at an intermediate level
4. understand induction and DC machines at a basic level
5. determine the basic function of digital and analog circuits and define their operational behavior.

Current, voltage, power, resistance measurement in d.c., a.c. and three phase circuits, measurements of electrical and non-electrical quantities, utilization of oscilloscopes, examination of rectifier circuits and DC-to-DC converter, operational behaviour and variable speed drives of d.c. and induction machines, examination of electronical circuits, sensors and digital technique.

Laborotory exercise

The laboratory exercise is split into multiple parts, where each part has mandatory attendance. Non-attendance will result in a failing grade of the course.

Each laboratory exercise part includes a preparation for the relevant topics required to perform all operations and measurements of the respective exercise. It is also used to check the required linguistic skills in German or English. If the laboratory instructor does not approve with the shown results, he/she has the right to exclude the student from the laboratory exercise to minimize the safety risk for all participants.

Any inquiries/questions related to this laboratory exercise must be sent to lehre-ieam@tuwien.ac.at.

• Attendance at all four preliminary discussions is strongly recommended, where an introduction to every laboratory exercise will be given.
• The laboratory exercise will be split into five parts, each part has mandatory attendance and in total 4 of 5 parts need to be passed for a positive grade on the laboratory exercise.
• If a laboratory exercise cannot be attended due to sickness, a medical certificate is required to schedule an alternative date. In this case please write an e-mail to lehre-ieam@tuwien.ac.at.

• Course registration is only possible in the predefined groups
• The group name includes the weekday on which all exercise parts will take place
• All exercise parts will either take place in the morning from 08:30-12:30 or in the afternoon from 13:00-17:00, see course dates for details.
• Final dates and arrangements will be presented after the registration period has ended.
• Any pre-registrations and waiting lists will not be considered.

Ein Skriptum wird zu Beginn der Vorbesprechungen angeboten und ist Dienstag, Mittwoch und Donnerstag von 10.00 bis 14.00 Uhr im Sekretariat des Instituts E370-2 erhältlich.
