Electrical and Electronics Measurements

  1. A permanent magnet moving coil type ammeter and a moving iron type ammeter are connected in series in a resistive circuit fed from output of a half wave rectifier voltage source. If the moving iron type instrument reach 5 A, the permanent magnet moving coil type instrument is likely to read __________A
    1. 3.18
    2. 3
    3. 25
    4. 5
Correct Option: A

For half wave rectifier output,

Idc =
Im
and Irms =
Im
π2

Hence PMMC reading will be,
Idc =
2 × 5
= 3.18 amp
π
