THEVENINS THEOREM

AIM: 1) To determine the Thevenin s theorem of electrical network

2) To determine the emf and resistance of the given source

APPARATUS: Resistance boxes 3 number(0 to 500 ), regulated power supply (12v), multimeter,
voltmeter, plug key

PROCEDURE: Two resistance R1 and R2 are connected in series with a regulated power supply (vo)
another resistance box R1 is connected across R2 through a multimeter. A voltmeter is connected
across R2 as shown in the figure.

The power supply switched on resistance R1 and R2 are set at 500 and 1000. There R2 is varied from
in steps of 1000. The R2 is varied from in steps the multimeter and voltmeter reading are noted in
each steps(I1 and v2)

Then the thevens equalent voltage and thevens equalent resistance is calculated using formula

Vs=Vth=v0R2/R1+R2

Rs=Rth=R1R2/R1+R2

TABULAR COLUMN:

T.N R2 in V2 in volt I2 in mA II2 in mA

RESULT: In every step of exp I2 will be found to be equal to II2 this varifies the thevenins theorem
