Lamp Load 2.5KW
Product Code : SCL-EAE-11304
Quick answer: The Lamp Load 2.5 kW is a lamp-based resistive load with a total capacity of 2.5 kW. Connected to a generator, alternator or power supply, its lamps draw power and glow, so students see the load being applied while they measure voltage, current, power and voltage regulation. Lab Exports manufactures it in Delhi for engineering colleges, polytechnics and technical institutes.

How the lamp load is used
Lamps used as a load draw current essentially in phase with the voltage, so the power taken is close to V x I and is turned into light and heat. Adding lamps to the circuit increases the load, and the glowing lamps show at a glance that load is being applied, which makes the lamp load a clear teaching tool as well as a test load.
In a generator or alternator practical the terminal voltage is noted at no load and again as the lamp load is increased. The drop in voltage, expressed as a percentage of the full-load voltage, is the voltage regulation, and the voltage-current readings give the external characteristic of the machine.
- Confirm that the source voltage, frequency and phase match the rating of the lamp load.
- Place the unit on a stable surface with clearance for ventilation and heat.
- Keep the source switched off while connecting it through the meters.
- Start the source, bring it to rated conditions, then apply the load gradually and record the readings.

Frequently asked questions
What is a lamp load used for?
It provides a visible resistive load for testing generators, alternators and power supplies, letting students observe voltage, current and power as load is applied and measure voltage regulation.
How is voltage regulation found with the lamp load?
Record the terminal voltage at no load and at full load. Regulation = (no-load voltage - full-load voltage) / full-load voltage x 100 percent.
