GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
1) While Doing Connections and Taking Readings: -
a. Wires used for doing connections should be capable of carrying current through
them. At the same time, they should not be too heavy to cause burden for the terminal
pin connectors. Please note that the terminals given for PC are weaker than that of
CC (especially in high current range wattmeter’s). So- if you connect thick wire to
the PC terminals, you are burdening the PC terminals. Also note that using too heavy
wire than the required is uneconomic.
b. Use flexible (thin) wires to connect voltmeter and PC of wattmeter’s. Because they
carry very small currents. This will ease to do connections as well as not harm the
terminals of the meters.
c. Best method of doing connections: - First do loop connections, that is connect those
wires which act as links between supply and load. Then insert (= connect) PC circuit
of wattmeter and voltmeter wherever necessary. This will help you in easy
understanding, analyzing and troubleshooting the circuit
d. Fix wires with optimum tightness. Do not leave the wires loose which may cause
risk of electric shock for the operator or damage to the equipment and supply.
Similarly, do not over tight the terminals/screws. This will damage the terminals and
make them useless for future.
e. Ammeter and CC of wattmeter have less number of turns and low resistance, because
they are connected in series with the load. They carry load current. Since sufficient
or considerable amount of current flows in these coils, few turns are enough to
provide desired deflection torque for the movement of the pointer.
f. Voltmeter and PC circuit of wattmeter are connected in parallel with the load or
supply. Hence they are made of high resistance (else they will consume large
power!). To make the circuit highly resistive, a series resistance is added with their
coils. Now, since current through the coil is very small (due to insertion of this series
resistance), they need large number of turns to produce the desired deflection torque
for the movement of the pointer. Hence voltmeter and PC of wattmeter have large
number of turns when compared to those of an ammeter or CC of wattmeter.
g. So- coil of an ammeter and CC of a wattmeter will have low resistance (ideally zero).
Similarly coil of a voltmeter and PC of a wattmeter will have high resistance (ideally
infinity).
h. Note down zero error if any in the instrument and take it into account. Also avoid
parallax error while taking reading.
i. Check for loose connections wherever possible, especially in the rheostat. Do not
forget to check leads of multimeter and also the wires for continuity while trouble
shooting.
2
j. Choosing rheostat: - In general, the value of the rheostat should be at least equal to
the value of the resistance of the circuit, preferably 4 to 6 times higher. The rheostat
should be able to carry currents safely without overheating.
k. While connecting the switch, the fuse should be towards load side so that when
switch is opened, the fuse can be safely touched (during trouble shooting to verify)
and replaced when needed.
a) It is better to have the range a little bit higher (say 10 to 20%) than the maximum value
that is going to be measured. This will avoid risk of taking damage to the meter. Also the
range should not be too high than the maximum value to be measured, because in that case,
effect of errors will be more since the reading is just a small percentage of the full scale
reading. Also there can be loss of accuracy due to loss of resolution.
4)Note down the name plate details of any equipment or instrument. This habit will be
of great help in future.
