b. Explain with neat circuit diagram and phasor diagram, two wattmeter method of
three phase power and power factor instrument. Enumerate advantage and
disadvantage.
c. What is the use shunt and multiplier in extension of range of instruments? A
moving coil milliammeter having a resistance of 8 gives full scale deflection when
a current of 5mA is passed through it. Calculate the value of shunt/multiplier
resistance to make it possible to read upto i) 2A, ii) 8V
2. Attempt any four parts
(4X5=20 Marks)

area of cross-section of iron is 3.6 cm 2. Estimate the number of ampere turns
needed to establish a flux of 0.5 mWb in the air gap. Take r = 650 and neglect
leakage.
c. Explain the need of earthing the electrical equipments.
