3. Magnetic contactor
4. Fuse units
5. Relay units
6. Current Transformer
7. Potential Transformer

Problem/Circuit Diagram:
State which problem the students are going to solve or which circuit they are going to implement.

Working Procedure:
Student must have a close look on all the equipments that will provide in this lab for demonstration purpose.
Any questions related to the working principle, construction etc. of various devices would be considered as
learning outcomes from this lab session. However, the course teacher will give a demonstration on each
device in this lab experiment.
