Apparatus is designed primarily for demonstration of the basic principles of transformers.
It consists of a laminated U-core with laminated I-core, both with 32 x 25 mm cross section to form a closed core of size 102 x 127 mm.
Heavy aluminium alloy stand with removable clamping rods, 2 pole pieces, each 65 x 30 x 25 mm with one end cone shaped, to accept support rod and shading ring.
Poles also have a hole drilled through lengthwise to take a light beam. 300 turns 600 turns 1200 turns 3600 turns 12000 turns
Enables students to investigate nature and properties of electricity by using simple circuits which are easily constructed on a base board.
The connector system uses P.C.B. strips with cut-out sections whose ends can easily be inserted in spring terminals, ensuring low contact resistance and ease of connection.

A simple form of D.C. motor with 2 pole armature wound with insulated copper wire and a permanent magnetic field provided by a removable bar magnet with a commutator and phosphor bronze brushes connected to 4 mm sockets, open construction, all parts visible.
This apparatus is an effective demonstration of how the earth wire and fuse act together to protect both the user and the appliance.
When the appliance is connected correctly and the LEDs in the appliance will illuminate to show the appliance is working.
A fault is then demonstrated by swapping the live wire from inside the appliance to the case to show either the fuse melts (protecting the user and appliance) or in the case of no earth wire, the LEDs illuminate to indicate the passage of current through the person to ground.
The fuse is easily visible and can be seen to ‘blow’ when a fault occurs.The unit is supplied with 10 m of fuse wire and full instructions.
A 12 V DC power supply is required.
Connections are made via 4 mm shrouded sockets.
With this simple electric motor model students can investigate the relationship between voltage supplied to rotor and polarity / position of magnets.
On applying 6V DC to 4mm sockets, the rotor will begin to rotate across its vertical axis.
Wound on rectangular bobbin, for use with 220 – 240 V AC mains with detachable mains connector with moulded plug, A 4 mm socket is provided for earthing.
