Lab 02

1. The document describes a lab experiment to verify Thevenin's theorem by measuring the equivalent Thevenin circuit values for a given circuit and comparing them to calculated values. 2. The procedures involve measuring resistances and voltages in the original circuit and derived Thevenin circuit, and calculating the equivalent Thevenin resistance and voltage to compare to measured values. 3. Verification of Thevenin's theorem is shown by the experimental values matching the calculated values for the Thevenin resistance and voltage, and the load voltages being the same in both the original and Thevenin circuits.

Calculation and results:

R1 = VS

R2 = VTH = VOC VTH = VOC (measured) (calculated)

R3 = VL (in the original


circuit)

RL = VL (In the Thevenins Circuit)

RTh = VL (calculated) % error
