Department of Computer and Electrical Engineering, KITS

The Department of Electrical Engineering was established in 1985. It was functioning as supporting department to teach the electrical engineering related courses in first year and higher classes of related branches. In the year 2010-2011 the course i lated branches. In the year 2010-2011 the course in B.E. (Electrical Engineering) was started with an intake of 60 students. There onwards the department started functioning separately and independently. The new building is constructed for the department. The department has well qualified and experienced faculty with industrial background. The department imparts quality education to students and suffice all the needs required in modern era apart from curriculum. The department organizes regular educational and industrial visits to various generating plants and electrical machines manufacturing industries to acquaint the students with latest developments in the field. The department has Electrical Engg. Association “ELECTRICON”, a student forum which provides an active platform for students to exhibit their talent and creativity. The students are exposed to knowledge era through organizing various technical quizzes, seminars, workshops and lectures from experts. The dedication of faculty and keen interest of students are producing good academic records. The department has well equipped laboratories with state of art infrastructure. Basic Electrical Engineering, Electrical Machines, Power Electronics, Electrical Measurements, Network Analysis, Electrical Engineering Workshop, Control Systems, Switchgear and Protection, High Voltage Engineering, Computer Applications in Power Systems labs as well as Computing Centre are being managed by this Department for providing adequate practical training. They are fully established with necessary equipment. This is a basic lab of Electrical Engineering at first year level. This lab has state of art equipments. The major experiment in this lab are verification of Kirchhoff’s laws, transformer tests, resonance in series and parallel ac circuits and 3 phase star and delta connections. A separate kit is available to display the hysteresis loop on CRO. The students are exposed to Electrical Machines and transformers at the first year level itself. Demonstration kits are available to teach basic functioning of various meters. All major set ups of Electrical Machine are available to study various types of Electrical Machines. Students perform various tests to find out the efficiency and regulation of generators, alternators and speed-control of motors. Major experimental setups are 3 phase alternator, 3 phase synchronous motor, 3 phase slip ring Induction motor etc. Electrical machines demonstration kit is available to study the constructional details of machines. The students are exposed to various modern measuring techniques to measure resistance, capacitance, inductance, stress, strain etc. Well designed kits are available to study different types of `Bridge Circuits'. AC potentiometers and DC potentiometers are used to measure ac and dc unknown voltages. 3-Phase inductive load is used for measurement of 3-Phase reactive Power using one wattmeter.
