What is the difference between Wheatstone bridge and meter bridge?
WHEATSTONE BRIDGE : A wheatstone bridge is used to measure an unknown electrical resistance by balancing two legs of a bridge circuit, one leg of which includes the unknown compound.Its operation is similar to the original potentiometer. METER BRIDGE : A uniform resistance wire 1 meter in length, mounted above a scale marked in millimeters, with terminals added to make the device usable as either part of a wheatstone bridge or of a potentiometer.

What is the difference between the Carey foster bridge and meter bridge?
There is no great difference between between the two in principlebut,In a Carey foster's bridge there is no end resistance whereas in the case of a metre bridge end resistance afffects our readings.Hence Carey foster bridge is more accurate than metre bridge .Carey foster bridge can also measure low resistance and high resistance but a metre bridge cannot do so.
