TRANSCRIPT
PotentiometerPotentiometer is an instrument used for measurement of an unknown emf.
Two Types: DC Potentiometer and AC Potentiometer
Basic Potentiometer:
What do you mean by standardisation of a potentiometer?
To fixed the “working current”.
Standard Cell: Western Normal Cell: 1.0186 V

Application of DC Potentiometer:1. Calibration of Voltmeter:
2. Calibration of Ammeter:
3. Measurement of Resistance:
4. Measurement of Power:
5. Calibration of Wattmeter:
Phantom Loading
AC Potentiometer:
Polar Potentiometer: Drysdale
Co-ordinate Potentiometer: Gall Tinsley
A basic condition for balance in an ac potentiometer is the equality ofvoltages under comparison at all instants and it requires equality inphase as well as in magnitude of both the ac sources at every instant.
