Empowering Education in Electricity and Electronics

A simplified solution for study designed for safe benchtop use.

Automotive motors, generators & charging systems

SKU# LK2410

This kit allows students to investigate the technology behind motors and charging systems. Students start by understanding the basics of motor construction and then carry out a range of experiments that helps them understand how charging systems in vehicles work. A key theme of this pack is introducing the use of oscilloscopes and triggering oscilloscopes for simple signals: AC, DC pulse width modulated and single pulse. Suitable for Level 2 students and technicians. A full workbook of exercises is provided. This kit relies on the HP2001 DC/Brushless DC motor pair which is ordered separately.

Learning objectives:

Current – AC, DC, RMS
Motor principles
Generator principles
DC permanent magnet motor, Brushless three phase motor, Three phase generator
Half and full wave rectification
