The Electricity System 2 is an advanced system designed to teach practical applications in circuits. The system completes and can be used with our Electricity System 1. Our lab system consists of a set of electric components blocks which house the electrical components (such as motors, buzzers etc). Each block connects to the base by two or four plugs with 4 mm sockets. Once inserted into the board the circuit starts to build. All the components of the kit are stored in a foam cushioned durable plastic storage case.

Transforming energy using a Dynamo
A dynamo can be described as a kind of DC motor. Also knows as an electrical generator, it is a device for converting mechanical energy into electrical energy. There are two types of generator or dynamo. Both turn rotational energy into electrical energy. One type involves rotating a coil inside a magnet. The other type involves rotating a magnet inside a coil (like a dynamo found on a bicycle). Both types produce alternating current. Therefore we can DC motor as a dynamo operating in reverse.
In this experiment, the student can verify that the first motor is supplied with an electric voltage and transfers the mechanical motion to the second motor by means of a rubber band. The motion produced by this motor is then used to produce an electric voltage which in turn can power the buzzer. The buzzer will then produce an audible sound.
Transformers
How to obtain a different voltage
Experiment using a transformer to change the voltage provided by a power supply. The transformer is an electric machine able to change (“transform”) an AC input voltage in another AC output voltage. It consists of two coils (primary and secondary) wrapped around the same ferromagnetic core.
