Dissertation note: College of Industrial Technology.-- Bachelor of Engineering Technology Major in Mechanical Engineering Technology with option in Automotive Technology: Technological University of the Philippines, Manila. 2025 Summary: This study focuses on developing a training prototype, specifically a testing and charging station for automotive starters and alternators, aimed at enhancing the practical skills of students at the Technological University of the Philippines Quezon (TUPQ). The automotive industry relies heavily on the reliability of starters and alternators, which are critical for engine initiation and vehicle operation. Common issues with these components, such as worn-out brushes, faulty solenoids, or damaged diodes, emphasize the need for thorough diagnostic testing to prevent unexpected breakdowns. The prototype simulates realistic testing conditions, enabling alternator and starter testing without the need for a complete vehicle setup including a framework for alternator and starter testing without needing an actual vehicle. This setup enables the testing of components by simulating operational conditions through an induction motor, pulleys, and fan belts. Additionally, it allows students to learn how to detect component faults and understand the importance of maintaining optimal charge levels in batteries. A thorough evaluation of the prototype will be conducted to assess its functionality, aesthetics, durability, workability, economy, and safety, with feedback from students, instructors, and industry experts. Ultimately, this study aims to equip TUPQ students with a reliable, effective learning tool that reinforces their technical understanding of automotive electrical systems. The prototype acquired an overall mean rating of 4.56 and a descriptive rating of ‘highly accepted’ evaluators: mechanics, TUPQ automotive professors, automotive students and graduates. The prototype, which has dimensions of 40” in length, 25” in width and 30” high above the ground only. Keywords: automotive training equipment, alternator testing, starter testing, practical skills, technical education, diagnostic tools.

This study focuses on developing a training prototype, specifically a testing and
charging station for automotive starters and alternators, aimed at enhancing the practical
skills of students at the Technological University of the Philippines Quezon (TUPQ). The
automotive industry relies heavily on the reliability of starters and alternators, which are
critical for engine initiation and vehicle operation. Common issues with these
components, such as worn-out brushes, faulty solenoids, or damaged diodes, emphasize
the need for thorough diagnostic testing to prevent unexpected breakdowns. The
prototype simulates realistic testing conditions, enabling alternator and starter testing
without the need for a complete vehicle setup including a framework for alternator and
starter testing without needing an actual vehicle. This setup enables the testing of
components by simulating operational conditions through an induction motor, pulleys, and fan belts. Additionally, it allows students to learn how to detect component faults and
understand the importance of maintaining optimal charge levels in batteries. A thorough
evaluation of the prototype will be conducted to assess its functionality, aesthetics, durability, workability, economy, and safety, with feedback from students, instructors, and industry experts. Ultimately, this study aims to equip TUPQ students with a reliable, effective learning tool that reinforces their technical understanding of automotive
electrical systems. The prototype acquired an overall mean rating of 4.56 and a
descriptive rating of ‘highly accepted’ evaluators: mechanics, TUPQ automotive
professors, automotive students and graduates. The prototype, which has dimensions of
40” in length, 25” in width and 30” high above the ground only. Keywords: automotive training equipment, alternator testing, starter testing, practical
