  • The Absolute Measurement of Capacity
    THE ABSOLUTE MEASUREMENT OF CAPACITY. By Edwakd B. Rosa and Frederick "W. Grover. 1. The Method Employed. The usual method of determining the capacity of a condenser in electromagnetic measure is Maxwell's bridge method, using a tuning fork or a rotating commutator to charge and discharge the condenser, Fig. 1. which is placed in the fourth arm of a Wheatstone bridge. This is a null method, is adapted to measuring large and small capacities equally well, and requires an accurate knowledge only of a resistance and the rate of the fork or commutator. 153 154 BULLETIN OF THE BUREAU OF STANDARDS. [vol.1, no. 2. The formula for the capacity C of the condenser as given by J. J Thomson, is as follows: * i_L a (a+h+d){a+c+g) 0= (1) ncd \} +c{a+l+d))\} + d(a+c+g)) in which <z, c, and d are the resistances of three arms of a Wheatstone bridge, b and g are battery and galvanometer resistances, respectively, and n is the number of times the condenser is charged and discharged per second. When the vibrating arm P touches Q the condenser is charged, and when it touches P it is short circuited and discharged. When Pis not touching Q the arm BD of the bridge is interrupted and a current flows from D to C through the galvanometer; when P touches Q the condenser is charged by a current coming partly through c and partly through g from C to D. Thus the current through the galvanometer is alternately in opposite directions, and when these opposing currents balance each other there is no deflection of the gal- vanometer.

  • (Ohmmeter). Aims: • Calibrating of a Sensitive Galvanometer for Measuring a Resistance
    Exp ( ) Calibrating of a sensitive galvanometer for measuring a resistance (Ohmmeter). Aims: • Calibrating of a sensitive galvanometer for measuring a resistance. The theory When a galvanometer is used as an ohmmeter for measuring an ohmic resistance R, the deviation angle θ of the galvanometer’s coil is directly proportional to the flowing current through the coil and inversely proportional to the value of the resistance. The deviation will reach to the maximum end when the resistance equals to zero or the current has the maximum value. For this reason, the scale will be divide by inversely way in comparison with the ammeter and the voltmeter. The original circuit as shown in Fig(1) consists of a dry cell(E) , rheostat and ammeter (A) are connected in series with small resistor s has the range of 1 omega. The two terminals of “s” are connected in parallel to another combination includes a sensitive galvanometer “G” which has internal resistance “r” and a resistors box “R”, this combination is called the measuring circuit. When the value of R equals zero, and by moving the rheostat in the original circuit, it is possible to set the flowing electric current in measuring the circuit as a maximum value od deviation in the galvanometer. By assigning different values of R, the deviation θ is decreasing with increasing the value of R or by another meaning when the flowing current through the galvanometer decreases. Therefore, the current through the galvanometer is inversely proportional to the value of R according the following Figure 1: Ohmmeter Circuit diagram equation; V=I(R+r) R=V/I-r or R=V/θ-r 1 | P a g e This is a straight-line equation between R and (1/θ) as shown in Fig(2).

  • Ballastic Galvanometer This Is a Sophisticated Instrument. This
    Ballastic galvanometer This is a sophisticated instrument. This works on the principle of PMMC meter. The only difference is the type of suspension is used for this meter. Lamp and glass scale method is used to obtain the deflection. A small mirror is attached to the moving system. Phosphorous bronze wire is used for suspension. When the D.C. voltage is applied to the terminals of moving coil, current flows through it. When a current carrying coil kept in the magnetic field, produced by permanent magnet, it experiences a force. The coil deflects and mirror deflects. The light spot on the glass scale also move. This deflection is proportional to the current through the coil. Q i = , Q = it = idt t Q , deflection Charge Fig 2.27 Ballastic galvanometer Measurements of flux and flux density (Method of reversal) D.C. voltage is applied to the electromagnet through a variable resistance R1 and a reversing switch. The voltage applied to the toroid can be reversed by changing the switch from position 2 to position ‘1’. Let the switch be in position ‘2’ initially. A constant current flows through the toroid and a constant flux is established in the core of the magnet. A search coil of few turns is provided on the toroid. The B.G. is connected to the search coil through a current limiting resistance. When it is required to measure the flux, the switch is changed from position ‘2’ to position ‘1’. Hence the flux reduced to zero and it starts increasing in the reverse direction. The flux goes from + to - , in time ‘t’ second.

    Installation Guide Tegra 710 and 810 Digital metering Introduction This manual provides operating and installation instructions for the Tegra 710 and 810 multifunction digital metering systems. Both Tegra metering systems combine a basic accuracy of 0.5% with fast response, optional RS485 or relay output and an easy to read LCD display. Tegra configurations and product codes Description Product Code WITH RELAY O/P TEGRA-710-200 WITH RS485 MODBUS O/P TEGRA-710-010 WITH RELAY O/P TEGRA-810-200 WITH RS485 MODBUS O/P TEGRA-810-010 Note: The (*) sign refers to RS485 Modbus O/P and (**) to relay O/P Warnings In the interest of safety and functionality this product must be installed by qualified properly trained personnel abiding by local regulations. Voltages dangerous to human life are present at some of the terminal connection of this unit. Ensure that all supplies are de-energised before attempting any connection or disconnection. External installations must be sufficient to protect human life and equipment under fault conditions. Caution Follow the installation diagrams carefully. These products do not have internal fuses; therefore external fuses must be used for protection for safety under fault conditions. The current inputs of these products are designed for connection into systems via current transformers x/5A. Never open-circuit the secondary winding of a current transformer. Always ensure that the power is disconnected before separating the current connector from the Tegra. Operation outside specified limits may cause permanent damage or temporary disruption. Do not power or connect the instrument if any part is damaged.
