Product Code : SCL-PLE-12379
The Capacitor (Charging and Discharging) set (SKU SCL-PLE-12379) is a capacitor charging and discharging kit for studying RC circuits in school and college physics. It includes a 0-20 V DC, 1 A power supply, a multimeter, a 1000 microfarad electrolytic capacitor, 10 k and 100 k resistors, a circuit board and connecting leads. Students charge the capacitor through a resistor and follow the voltage as it rises and falls. JaincoLab supplies it for electricity practicals.
Specifications
The set consists of a 0-20 V DC 1 A power supply, a multimeter, 10 k and 100 k resistors, a 1000 microfarad electrolytic capacitor, a circuit (outlet) board and six pairs of red and black connecting leads.

Applications of the capacitor charging and discharging kit
The kit is used to observe how the voltage across a capacitor changes with time when it charges or discharges through a resistor, and to relate the rate of change to the time constant RC.
- Recording capacitor voltage against time during charging
- Recording capacitor voltage against time during discharging
- Comparing charging times through the 10 k and 100 k resistors (nominal RC values of 10 s and 100 s with the 1000 microfarad capacitor)
- Plotting exponential charge and discharge curves from class readings
- RC circuit practicals in senior secondary and B.Sc physics
