Connection layout:
Connection summary:

Probe tip : 5
Purpose:
The purpose of this experiment is to show what dual phase rectifi ed AC looks like on a scope screen
and to show the difference with single phase rectifi ed AC.

Place the probe switch “x1/x10” to ‘x1’.2.
Select 5ms/div and 4V/div.

Now, check what happens when you fl ip the switch from single phase to dual phase rectifi cation.
Flip the switch back and forward, to clearly see the difference between both settings.
