Abstract
The objective of technical polytechnic education in Nigeria is to ensure that learners are imparted with adequate technical knowledge that will prepare persons for employment in a recognized occupation. Such area of study is electrical engineering with specialization in control and instrumentation. This paper describes some useful experiments that can be adopted into the curriculum of Electrical Control Engineering as a course to be taught in the Polytechnic. The experiments have been carried out using the Servo Trainer equipment. Since Control engineering relies on a strong background and a good control laboratory, the Servo Trainer equipment has been utilized to demonstrate how the barrier to knowledge in electrical control engineering in Nigerian polytechnics can be widened. When such experiments performed are used in training students it will help in preparing them for the possibility of getting employed in an industrial setting where the knowledge of automatic control and instrumentation is required or in areas of designing new engineering systems
