Power Measurement

According to Blondel's theorem, the total power is measured with one less number of wattmeters than the number of wires present in the system. So, a single-phase and two-wire system will require one wattmeter and a single-phase and the three-wire system will require two wattmeters, and a three-phase and the three-wire system will also require two wattmeters and a three-phase and the four-wire system will require three wattmeter devices. The wattmeter is a device that measures power using one voltage and one current input as shown in the above figure. Multiple current or voltage input pair cables are used by many power analyzers and digital storage oscilloscopes (DSOs) for measuring watts, in effect within a single instrument acting as multiple wattmeters. It is possible to measure three-phase and four-wire power with one correctly specified power analyzer.

Enumerate and explain briefly the three basic types of alternating current circuits.
Each terminal of a small polarity-independent incandescent bulb is connected to the positive terminals of two (2) DC voltage sources. The negative terminals of these sources are connected together. The first voltage source can have a range of value from 0-12, incrementable by 1.5 volts every turn of the rotary switch (i.e. 0 V, 1.5 V, 3 V, 4.5 V .... 12 V). The voltage of the second source is unknown. Using a luxmeter, the brightness of the lamp was measured for every increment of voltage of the first source. The following observations were recorded: a. 1.5 V produces a higher brightness than 3 V b. 0 V produces a higher brightness than 1.5 V c. 12 V produces higher brightness than 9 V d. 12 V produces equal brightness as 3 V What is the voltage of the second source? Justify each observation.
