Summary/Abstract: This paper proposes a solution for carrying out laboratory work in the strict conditions of the Covid - 19 pandemic. The traditional laboratory can be replaced by the virtual laboratory or the remote laboratory, depending on the requirements of the course and the skills required for the training of engineers. The environment for performing alternative laboratory work (Virtual or Remote Laboratory) is the Multisim software from National Instruments. The student with the help of this software can make the electrical circuits provided in the curriculum of the discipline of General Electrical Engineering. This paper presents four examples of alternative laboratory works for the field of electrical engineering, namely, three-phase electrical circuits, static electrical converters, asynchronous motor and electric drive system. The student can simulate the required regimes in the laboratory guide and is free to simulate other regimes at his own initiative. The paper ends with the proposal of a step-by-step algorithm, which can be a guide for any teacher who wants to organize alternative laboratory work.
