RESISTANCE MEASUREMENTS

Conventional Ways of Measuring Resistance:-
1) Using a Ohmmeter – Convenient but inaccurate, requires
calibration prior to measurement.
2) Using the Ammeter and Voltmeter method -i.e. by
measuring the current and voltage across the unknown
resistance, then calculating the value of the resistance using
Ohms Law. This method not only requires calibration prior to
measurement, it also introduces error by adding the
ammeter and voltmeter elements into the measurement.
3) Bridge Circuits Measuring Resistance; to be introduced in
this chapter.

BRIDGE CIRCUITS
5
Bridge circuits, which are instruments for making comparative
measurements, are widely used to measure resistance,
inductance, and capacitance
Bridge circuits operate on a null-indication principle, which
means the measurement is independent of calibration, this
makes the measurement device very accurate.
Bridge circuits are also frequently used in
control circuits.
When used in such applications, one arm of
the bridge should contains a resistive element
that is sensitive to the physical parameter
(Such as: temperature, pressure, etc.) being
controlled.

BRIDGE CIRCUITS: ADVANTAGES & DISADVANTAGES
Advantages of the bridges:
Most accurate types of measurement devices.
Reliable and very easy to perform.
Small in size and low power operation.
Less maintenance required.

Disadvantages of the bridges:
To ensure the highest accuracy of the
bridge circuit, the detector need to be
extremely sensitive.

DC BRIDGES – WHEATSTONE BRIDGE
8
Common name for a normal DC bridge is (Wheatstone Bridge).
A null-detector, usually a galvanometer, is
connected between the parallel branches to
detect a condition of balance.
The Wheatstone bridge has been in use longer
than almost any other electrical measuring
instrument.
It is still an accurate and reliable instrument
and is heavily used in industry. Accuracy of
0.1% is quite common with Wheatstone as
opposed to 3% to 5% error with the ordinary
ohmmeters for resistance measurement.
Introduced by Sir Charles Wheatstone as early as 1847.
The Wheatstone bridge consists of two parallel resistance branches each
branch containing two series elements, usually resistors.
A dc voltage source is connected across this resistance network to
provide a source of current through the resistance network.

What is a Galvanometer?
Galvanometer is the historical name given
to a moving coil electric current detector.
When a current is passed through a coil in
a magnetic field, the coil experiences a
torque proportional to the current.
If the coil's movement is opposed by a
coil spring, then the amount of deflection
of a needle attached to the coil may be
proportional to the current passing
through the coil.

I1 = V ÷ R = 12V ÷ (10Ω + 20Ω) = 0.4A
VR2 = I × R2 = 0.4A × 20Ω = 8 volts
VR1 = 4V and VR2 = 8V
both points have the same value of 8 volts: C = D = 8 volts
the difference is: 0 volts
When this happens, both sides of the parallel network are said to
be balanced because the voltage at point C is the same value as
the voltage at point D. Dr. Wael Salah
![Page 13: Instrumentation and Measurement Techniques · inductance, and capacitance Bridge circuits operate on a null-indication principle, which means the measurement is independent of calibration,](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062508/6021bdfc9af47938ec379ae8/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

Consider what would happen when we reverse the position of the
two resistors, R3 and R4 in the second parallel branch
VR4 = 0.4A × 10Ω = 4 volts
the voltage difference between points C and D will be 4V
as: C = 8V and D = 4V
When this happens the parallel network is said to
be unbalanced as the voltage at point C is at a different value
to the voltage at point D. Dr. Wael Salah

The bridge consists of an unknown resistance (to be
measured) R, two precision resistors P and Q, an
adjustable resistor S.
To determine R, the variable resistance S is adjusted
until the galvanometer indicates zero voltage.

MEASUREMENT ERRORS
IN THE WHEATSTONE BRIDGE
18
The Wheatstone bridge is mainly used for low value resistance
measurements.
1. Error in the Wheatstone bridge is found due to
limiting errors of the resistors.
2. Insufficient sensitivity of null detector.
3. Change of resistance due to heating effect.
4. Thermal emf in the Bridge or Galvanometer
5. Error due to the resistance of leads and circuit
contacts.

• When the bridge is in an unbalanced condition, current
flows through the galvanometer, causing a deflection of its
pointer.
• The amount of deflection is a function of the sensitivity of
the galvanometer.
• The sensitivity is deflection per unit current.

It is necessary to calculate the galvanometer circuit -- to determine
whether or not the galvanometer has the required sensitivity to
detect an unbalance conditions.
Different galvanometer not only may require different currents per
unit deflection (current sensitivity), but also may have a difference
internal resistance.

THEVENIN EQUIVALENT CIRCUIT
22
Converting the Wheatstone bridge to its Thevenin equivalent
circuit in order to find the current follows in the galvanometer:
There are two steps must be taken:
Finding the equivalent voltage when the galvanometer is
removed from the circuit (the open voltage between A and B of
bridge).
Finding the equivalent resistance, with the battery replaced
by its internal resistance (removing the voltage source and
makes its side short circuit and removing current source makes
its side open circuit)

• The types of resistive sensors that can be used

Application: Wheatstone Bridge Light Detector
One of the resistors within the bridge network is replaced by a light
dependent resistor, or LDR.
An LDR, also known as a cadmium-sulphide (Cds) photocell, is a
passive resistive sensor which converts changes in visible light
levels into a change in resistance and hence a voltage.
Light dependent resistors can be used for monitoring and
measuring the level of light intensity, or whether a light source is
ON or OFF.

WHEATSTONE BRIDGE LIMITATION

Dr. Wael Salah
It is often necessary to make measurements of low
resistances, such as for samples of wires or low values of meter-
shunt resistors.
Resistors in the range of approximately 1 to 1 may be
measured with a high degree of accuracy using a bridge called
the Kelvin bridge.
Kelvin bridge is a modified version of the Wheatstone
bridge. The purpose of the modification is to eliminate the
effects of contact, and lead resistance when measuring
unknown low resistances.
