Abstract: Abstract A prototype of a remote laboratory to conduct electrical power experiments over the internet has been developed to allow students to access the setup and perform measurement and analysis of typical electrical power experiments. The main goal of the paper is to provide a mean of resource sharing of expensive power equipment to students from other universities in Jordan and beyond in addition to students at Tafila Technical University, where the traditional electrical power systems laboratory is located. The design approach is based on modifying the existing traditional systems to facilitate remote access via the web. One typical experiment addressing synchronization procedure of two generators has been performed with a power system simulator. The data acquisition system and remote access of the power laboratory were designed based on the Lab-View programming language. Initial on students’ evaluation of the proposed online laboratory indicates that encouraging results may be obtained with remote experimentation when improved pedagogical aspects are integrated properly in the measurement procedures.
