Developments in the electrical machine laboratory at King Saud University

The authors describe the process of updating and renewing the electrical machine laboratory at King Saud University that accompanied the movement of the University to its new campus at Dhareya. Particular attention is given to the old equipment that has been preserved and to the potential of the new equipment. It is noted that the research facilities may be improved if a computer system is introduced in the lab. Also, the solid-state drive facilities may be improved by the introduction of a 400 Hz generator.<>
