Abstract
Electrical power system (EPS) mainly comprises of three major parts i.e. power generation, transmission and distribution (PGTD). To enhance the practical and research capabilities of engineering students, laboratory education of PGTD is a crucial requirement of electrical engineering program. In this paper, the basic phenomenons related to power generation (PG) i.e. generator behavior with resistive, inductive and capacitive loads, effect of variable frequency drive (VFD), governor and voltage regulation (VR) operation, open and short circuit test of generator, $X_{d}$ and $X_{q}$ characteristics, prime mover behavior and synchronization of generator with main grid are demonstrated and investigation from laboratory point of view. The power generation trainer (PGT) model No. EM-PRT-EG $3 \varphi$ is used for experiment purpose. Further, some shortcomings in the power generation trainer are highlighted. Finally, Some needful suggestions are drawn to expedite the functionality of PGT for enhancement of hand-on experience in the laboratory.
