What is Construction of moving coil ballistic galvanometer?
A moving coil ballistic galvanometer is a sensitive instrument used to measure small amounts of electric charge. It consists of a coil of wire suspended between two pole pieces of a permanent magnet. When a current passes through the coil, it experiences a torque and deflects, allowing the measurement of charge.
What are the types of galvanometer?
The two main types of galvanometers are moving coil galvanometers and moving magnet galvanometers. Moving coil galvanometers use a coil of wire that moves in a magnetic field, while moving magnet galvanometers use a magnet that moves in a coil of wire.
What is weston galvanometer?
A weston galvanometer is a type of sensitive instrument used to detect and measure small electric currents. It uses a moving coil suspended in a magnetic field to deflect in response to the current passing through it. This deflection is then used to indicate the strength of the current.

Differences between Permanent magnet moving coil and moving iron?
Permanent magnet moving coil (PMMC) instruments use a moving coil that is suspended between the poles of a permanent magnet, whereas moving iron instruments use a stationary coil and a moving iron piece that moves within the coil's magnetic field. PMMC instruments are more accurate but have limited range, while moving iron instruments are less accurate but can measure higher currents. PMMC instruments are inherently more expensive compared to moving iron instruments.
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
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.

What is moving coil type voltmeters?

What are the disadvantages of moving coil instrument?
power must be gotten thru moving parts to the coil slip rings, festoons, tinsel
What are the functions of moving coil instrument?
The function of the moving coil is to deflect the instruments needle across a calibrated scale to give the meter operator an accurate reading of what ever he is testing. The moving coil is given a minute current, through internal instrument circuity, a sample of the potential that is being measured.
What happens when a permanent magnet moving coil instrument be connected in an ac current?
The torque on the moving coil will reverse at twice the frequency of the supply, causing the pointer to vibrate. High-quality a.c. measuring instruments that incorporate a moving coil are, of course, common but incorporate a rectification circuit to supply the coil.
Why moving iron is used in both AC and DC current?
A moving iron instrument works by means of a coil that attracts a moving iron mass that is attached to a pivoted pointer which moves across a graduated scale. The iron mass will be attracted towards the coil, regardless of the magnetic polarity of the coil. So, as an AC current continually reverses the magnetic polarity of the coil, the iron mass is always attracted towards the coil, never repelled by it. Similarly, a moving iron instrument doesn't care in which direction a DC current is flowing. So the instrument works equally well with both AC and DC currents. Moving iron instruments, however, are not as accurate as moving coil instruments which, of course, are sensitive to the direction of current.
Working principle of permanent-magnet moving-coil instrument?
it will smash to each other & make flex
Why you called the watt-meter as dynamo-meter in the 3 phase power measurement?
The terms you are looking for are 'dynamometer' (no hyphen!) or 'electrodynamic' instrument. These terms describe an instrument movement, where the torque applied to the pointer results from the interaction of magnetic fields produced by fixed and moving coils. In the case of a wattmeter, the fixed coil is the current coil which is connected in series with the load, and the moving coil is the voltage coil which is connected in parallel with the load.A dynamometer type instrument differs from a moving-coil instrument, such as an ammeter or a voltmeter, in which the torque applied to the pointer is the result of the interaction between the magnetic fields produced by the moving coil and a permanent magnet.For three-phase power measurements, it is possible to use just two wattmeters in a configuration called the 'two wattmeter method'.
What is the purpose of the series resistor in your designed ammeter circuit?
You appear to be referring to a 'swamping resistor' which is connected in series with a moving-coil ammeter's moving coil.To minimise any errors due to temperature changes in the resistance of the instrument's moving coil, the coil is connected in series with what is termed a 'swamping resistor' whose resistance is large in comparison with that of the moving coil, and which is manufactured from an alloy with a very lowtemperature coefficient of resistance (i.e. a metal whose resistance is hardly effected by wide variations in temperature).For example, if the resistance of a 1-Ω moving coil increases to, say, 1.1 Ω, when its rated current flows through it, this will introduce a 10% error in the instrument's reading.But by calibrating the instrument with a series swamp resistor of, say, 49 Ω, the overall resistance at rated current will become 50.1 Ω. This will result in an error of just 0.2%.A swamping resistor, then, is an integral part of all moving-coil instruments and, when we refer to an instrument's 'coil resistance', we actually mean the combined resistance of the moving coil itself and its swamping resistor.
Why are moving iron instruments unpolarized?
Moving-coil instruments are polarised, not unpolarised. This is because they are direct current instruments, and the direction of the current determines the direction in which the instrument's point will move. If a moving coil instrument is connected incorrectly, then the instrument will try and read 'downscale' -in other words, the resulting torque will try and move the pointer backwards.AnswerA moving-iron meter operates by the repulsion between a fixed iron pole piece, and a moving iron pole piece to which the pointer is attached. The magnetic polarity of the fixed and moving pole pieces is determined by the direction of current flowing though a coil. The magnetic polarities induced into the fixed and moving iron pole pieces, when the current flows in one direction, are both north; and, when the current flows in the oppositedirection are both south. So the pole pieces always repel each other, regardless of current direction.
