About this document

Galvanometer and Electrical Instruments by flyfalcon is a document available to read on EtoBox.

The document describes different types of electrical measuring instruments. It discusses the moving coil galvanometer, which detects small currents by measuring the rotation of a coil in a magnetic field. It then explains how a galvanometer can be used as the basis for an ammeter or voltmeter by adding a shunt or series resistor respectively. Finally, it briefly introduces the Wheatstone bridge circuit for measuring unknown resistances.
