Ammeter An ammeter consists of a galvanometer with a shunt resistor. The input current iin divides with im passing through the meter and ish Passing the shunt. It is clear from Fig:
Design of Ammeter • If Rm=50 ohm and it is required that full scale capability of 1 mA is to measure up to 5 A: Rsh = 0.001*50/(5-0.001) 0.01 Ohm
Voltmeter • Galvanometer is used as a voltmeter by connecting a series resistor Rse where current remains same but total resistance is extended to extend the scale. Vin = Vm + Vse
Design of Voltmeter • A full scale 1 mA Galvano of 50 0hm to measure 5 Volt FS: Rse = (5/0.001)- 50 = 4950 Ohms A series resistance of 4950 Ohm will enable the same to read FS 5 Volts
Electrodynamometer Wattmeter
Wattmeter • The fixed coil of the wattmeter is connected in series with the circuit (load), and the moving coil is connected across the line. When line current flows through the fixed coil of a wattmeter, a field is set up around the coil. The strength of this field is in phase with and proportional to the line current. The moving coil of the wattmeter generally has a high-resistance resistor connected in series with it. The purpose for this connection is to make the moving-coil circuit of the meter as purely resistive as possible. As a result, current in the voltage circuit is practicallyin phase withline voltage. Therefore, when voltage is impressed on the voltage circuit, current is proportional to and in phase with the line voltage. V I
