The advantages of a moving iron ammeter is that it can accurate measure the amount of electricity which is flowing. This makes it well suited for both monitoring and controlling the amount of electricity in a circuit.

Is Voltmeter is a moving iron Instrument or moving coil instrument?
If this is a homework related question, you really should consider trying to solve it yourself before looking at this answer. Otherwise, the value of the lesson, and the reinforcement provided by the assignment, will be lost to you.A moving coil measuring instrument has a coil attached to the indicator, surrounded by a magnet.A moving iron measuring instrument has a magnet attached to the indicator, surrounded by a coil.In both cases, the indicator is driven by magnetic torque caused by current flow in the coil.
How do you check a dc ammeter?
a dc ammeter is a ammeter which has three pins and it works by two wires.
Specifically what are moving coil and moving iron used for measuring?
If you are questioning about different relay (contactor) constructions, the terms moving coil and moving iron designate what part of the relay moves and carries the conductor that makes or breaks a circuit.
How do you measure voltage using a ammeter?
An ammeter measures amperage not voltage.
What is the importance of ammeter?
An ammeter measures current, an important variable in electronics.
What are the kinds of ammeter?
The ammeter is a device that measures the electric current. Hot wire, electrostatic, moving iron, moving coil, and induction are the kinds of ammeter.
What does mc and mi refer to in voltmeter and ammeter?
moving coil & moving iron
What is MI in ammeter MI?
mi stands for moving iron in ammeter used only in alternating current circuits
What is observed when the steady current in moving iron ammeter is replaced by an alternating current of frequency 50Hz?
No difference will be noted.
What instrument measures both ac and DC?
hot wire ammmeter or a moving iron ammeter will work for ac and dc.
Moving coil galvanometer converted into a multi range ammeter?
yes
A moving coil galvanometer can be used as an ammeter by adding?
a series resistence with its coil

What is the construction and working details of moving iron and moving coil ammeters and moving coil voltmeters?
Different b/w a moving coil instrument and a moving iron instrument
What is a moving coil ammeter?
A moving-coil ammeter is an analogue ammeter, used to measure direct current. It works on the same principle as an electric motor, whereby a pivoted coil, located between the two poles of a horseshoe magnet, will rotate when current is passed through it. The movement is restricted by a pair of hairsprings, which means that the moving coil will move through an angle that is proportional to the current. A pointer, attached to the coil, sweeps across a suitably-graduated scale, to indicate the value of current passing through the coil.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of electrostatic instruments?
What are the advantages and disadvantages manx iron instrument
How range of a ammeter is extended?
if we take resistance in parallel with ammeter then the range of ammeter will change.
