Book excerpt: Excerpt from Electric and Magnetic Measurements Errors of various kinds arise in making measurements, the most important of which are the following: Errors of observation, due to lack of ability on the part of the observer to make accurate readings. Simple mistakes, which grow less troublesome as the observer gains in training and experience. Instrumental errors, due to incorrect calibration of scales or to faulty adjustment of comparison standards.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Electrical Measurements: A Laboratory Manual Progress in the methods of Electrical Measurement is quite as marked as in the applications of electricity. The perfecting of measuring instruments keeps pace with the demands imposed by scientific accuracy. Laboratory practice should not be permitted to lag behind discovery and commercial applications; obso lete methods may with propriety be relegated to historical collections, along With antiquated apparatus, so that students in electricity may learn only the latest modes of procedure. The authors of this book have proceeded on this plan in collecting and devising methods to form a graded series of experiments for the use of several classes in electrical measurements. How well they have succeeded others must decide. Quantitative experiments only have been introduced, and they have been selected with the object of illustrating the general methods of measurement rather than the applications to specific departments of technical work, such as submarine cable testing, telegraphy and telephony, or dynamo electric machinery. It is thought to be better that these subjects should be treated in Special handbooks. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Industrial Electrical Measuring Instruments IN the interval which has elapsed since the publication of the First Edition, there has been considerable development 111 nearly all directions. Of epoch making innovations there has been none, but progress has been continuous. As a result, it has been necessary to rewrite the whole, and the expansion of all sections has been so great that in order to keep Within reasonable limits some have had to be abandoned. For this reason, the subject of Fault Localisa tion, as distinguished from Fault Detection, has been omitted, as have also Relays and Over Pressure Devices. Pyrometers, on the other hand, have again been dealt with at some length. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Absolute Measurements in Electricity and Magnetism Classic Reprint written by Andrew Gray and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-07-20 with total page 870 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Absolute Measurements in Electricity and Magnetism To the late Mr. E. B. Rosa and his colleagues of the physical staff of the Bureau of Standards at Washington I am under many Obligations. They tested and used my suggestions as to standards and formulae of inductance, and constructed an accurate electrodynamometer of the special dimensions recommended in my Phil. Mag. Paper of 1892, and in the First Edition of this book. They have carried in their writings the investigation of the accuracy of formulae, and the allowance for errors of different kinds, to a high pitch of perfection. Their numerical comparison of formulae and their exact computation of the constants of apparatus have not been such as to attract popular attention and applause, but it has been none the less of enormous value to scientific progress. This merit it has in common with the whole work of the British Association Committee on Electrical Standards and of all those scientific men who have laboured at the subject of absolute electrical measurement. This task of founding a system of absolute measure ments was forced upon science by applications to submarine telegraphy, and it is not too much to say that without such a system not one of the immense and varied range of practical applications could ever have been made. I am indebted to my friend and former pupil, Professor E. Taylor Jones, who has made an elaborate theoretical and experimental study of the induction coil, and is an acknowledged authority on that subject, for the account of the action of such apparatus, which appears in Appendix I. The Table of Contents and the Index have been constructed by my eldest daughter, to whose unfailing patience and ready help as amanuensis I have had continually to turn. I wish finally to acknowledge the care of the readers and compositors of the University Press, which, by comparison of references, and other wise, has saved the text from many inconsistencies, and increased its accuracy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Measurement of Electric Currents: Electrical Measuring Instruments; Meters for Electrical Energy The object of both of the valuable papers presented before the Institution of Civil Engineers included in this volume is to te view the advances made of late years in the production of what may be termed commer cial instruments for measuring commercial currents. In other words, the authors de vote their attention to the instruments having more or less of practicability to recommend them for the work of recording station output and securing station income. More than one class of apparatus is neces sarily embraced within such a survey, and the paper by Mr. Swinburne is laudably comprehensive, there being in it a descrip tion in some detail, or a broad generaliza tion that covers its principle, of well nigh every instrument that the electrical engineer cares to know anything about.

Download or read book Electrical Measuring Instruments and Measurements written by S.C. Bhargava and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2012-12-27 with total page 1888 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, written for the benefit of engineering students and practicing engineers alike, is the culmination of the author's four decades of experience related to the subject of electrical measurements, comprising nearly 30 years of experimental research and more than 15 years of teaching at several engineering institutions. The unique feature of this book, apart from covering the syllabi of various universities, is the style of presentation of all important aspects and features of electrical measurements, with neatly and clearly drawn figures, diagrams and colour and b/w photos that illustrate details of instruments among other things, making the text easy to follow and comprehend. Enhancing the chapters are interspersed explanatory comments and, where necessary, footnotes to help better understanding of the chapter contents. Also, each chapter begins with a "recall" to link the subject matter with the related science or phenomenon and fundamental background. The first few chapters of the book comprise "Units, Dimensions and Standards"; "Electricity, Magnetism and Electromagnetism" and "Network Analysis". These topics form the basics of electrical measurements and provide a better understanding of the main topics discussed in later chapters. The last two chapters represent valuable assets of the book, and relate to (a) "Magnetic Measurements", describing many unique features not easily available elsewhere, a good study of which is essential for the design and development of most electric equipment – from motors to transformers and alternators, and (b) "Measurement of Non-electrical Quantities", dealing extensively with the measuring techniques of a number of variables that constitute an important requirement of engineering measurement practices. The book is supplemented by ten appendices covering various aspects dealing with the art and science of electrical measurement and of relevance to some of the topics in main chapters. Other useful features of the book include an elaborate chapter-by-chapter list of symbols, worked examples, exercises and quiz questions at the end of each chapter, and extensive authors' and subject index. This book will be of interest to all students taking courses in electrical measurements as a part of a B.Tech. in electrical engineering. Professionals in the field of electrical engineering will also find the book of use.
