1. Verification of Kirchoff’s Law
Aim:

To verify the Kirchoff’s laws for the given network with the theoretical
calculations.

Statement:

Kirchoff’s Current Law (KCL)

♦ Sum of all currents entering a node is zero.


♦ Sum of currents entering the node is equal to sum of currents leaving the
node.

Kirchoff’s Voltage Law (KVL)

♦ Sum of voltages around any loop in a circuit is zero.

First, sum the voltages about the loop.


ΣV= V1+V2+……+Vn = 0.

Kirchoff’s current law:


Circuit diagram:

Let R1=220Ω; R2=330Ω

2
Procedure:
1. Connections are made as per the circuit diagram.
2. The total current is calculated theoretically (Ith).
3. The current through each branch is measured practically (I1,I2) and added to
get the value Ipr.
4. Verify KCL for each & every node presents in the given network.
5. Repeat the same procedure for different values of voltages.

Observation:

V(volts) Ith(mA) I1(mA) I2(mA) Ipr=I1+I2


(mA)

Theoretical calculation
RT = R1⏐⏐R2 =220Ω⏐⏐330Ω = 132Ω
For V = 10V
Ith = VT/RT = 75.8mA
I1 = I * R2/(R1+R2) =45.5mA
I2 = I * R1/(R1+R2) =30.3mA
Ipr =I1+I2= 45.5+30.0 =75.8mA

Kirchoff’s voltage law:
Circuit diagram:

Let R1=10kΩ; R2=22kΩ; R3=33kΩ

Procedure:

1. Connections are made as per the circuit diagram.


2. The voltages V1,V2 and V3 across each resistance is measured for different
values of input voltage V.
3. Add the voltages V1,V2 and V3 and denote it as VT.
4. Verify KVL for the loop present in the given network (VT=V).

Observation:

V(volts) V1(volts) V2(volts) V3(volts) VT=V1+V2+V3

Theoretical Calculation
V = V1+V2+V3
V1 = I* R1
V2 = I* R2
V3 = I* R3
where I is the current in the loop = V/( R1+R2+R3).
For V = 10V
I = 10/((10+22+33) * 103 ) = 0.154 mA
V 1= 0.154 * 10 = 1.54V
V2 = 0.154 * 22 = 3.39V
V3 = 0.154 * 33 = 5.08V
V1+V2+V3 =10.01V

Result:

Using Kirchoff’s Laws the node currents and branch voltages are
theoretically calculated & practically verified.
