Best Answer

No, on dc the power is measured by the produce of the voltage and current so there is no need for a wattmeter, which would not work on dc anyway.

How can a person test a circuit to determine if it is ac or dc?

Use a meter that simultaneously will test for both. Most better meters such as Fluke have this capability Or Switch your meter to AC if you get no voltage over the reading then likely you have a DC circuit. Don't do this by switching to DC first, You very well will ruin your meter if your meter does not have protection to handle this.

Difference between ac and dc bridge?

DC Bridge... We use DC supply, Detector is also a DC current detector and we use only resistive components no need for wegner's earthing device balancing time is comparatively less.. where as in AC bridges opposite of above. i.e. AC supply, AC current detector resisitive+ reactive componants need for wagner's earthing device and balancing time is high as we use AC supply..
