Practical - 3 - Four Quadrant Chopper Fed DC Drive

This document describes an experiment on a four quadrant chopper fed DC drive. The objectives are to understand the operation of a single four quadrant chopper fed DC drive and perform forward and reverse motoring as well as braking operations. The apparatus includes an experimental kit, DSO, multimeter and patch cords. Four quadrant operation is explained showing how speed and torque vary depending on which transistors are on. The control modes of forward power, forward regeneration, reverse power and reverse regeneration are then described. Observation tables are included to record voltage, speed and other measurements during the experiment.
