The article discusses an electrical laboratory using mixed reality technologies. The authors have developed a working version of the educational application for a computer or smartphone using mixed reality technology. The capabilities of the application developed by the authors are shown on the example of the discipline "Theoretical Foundations of Electrical Engineering". A fragment of the application structure in the form of mind maps is presented. The main stages of the application are demonstrated. Using the example of electrical engineering, it is shown that the learning process can quickly meet the requirements of the era of industrial revolution 4.0. This is possible with the help of modern technologies, one of which is mixed reality technology. The application developed by the authors allows you to increase the practical orientation of laboratory work. It gives the student the opportunity to explore the actual appearance of electrical components. Device models are demonstrated by pointing the student's smartphone camera at the corresponding markers in a real or virtual laboratory. The application was developed in the software environment of the augmented reality object constructor EV Toolbox, the basic educational version of Standard Edu. 3D models are created in Autodesk Inventor.
