Experiment No.3
Experiment Name: Electrical cable strength test by applying current.
Objective: To study about electrical cable strength test by applying current.
Procedure: First we will take a cable of 1.3rm.Then we conntected to current
injuctor output.then put the values in the data table.
Data Table:
Serial no. Temperature of Current through Observation
the cable (◦C) the cable(Amp)
1 25 30 No Smoke
2 25 50 No Smoke
3 74 60 No Smoke
4 106 65 Smoke Point
5 130 70 Smoke
6 165 75 Flame point
(No visible Flame)
7 190 85 Cable Turned Red
8 205 90 Breaking Point
Apparatus: 1.3 rm cable, current injector, Laser Infrared Thermometer.
Discussion: In this experiment we calculate all values correctly and there are no
problem in our lab.Here 165 ◦C temperature is flame point and it burned the
cable.The breaking point temperature is 205◦C.So we did successfull work done in
our lab.
