  2. String galvanometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_galvanometer

    A string galvanometer is a sensitive fast-responding measuring instrument that uses a single fine filament of wire suspended in a strong magnetic field to measure small currents. In use, a strong light source is used to illuminate the fine filament, and the optical system magnifies the movement of the filament allowing it to be observed or ...

  3. Current sensing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current_sensing

    In electrical engineering, current sensing is any one of several techniques used to measure electric current. The measurement of current ranges from picoamps to tens of thousands of amperes. The selection of a current sensing method depends on requirements such as magnitude, accuracy, bandwidth, robustness, cost, isolation or size. The current ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrostatic_voltmeter

    A surface DC voltmeter is an instrument that measures voltage with no electric charge transfer. [citation needed] It can accurately measure surface potential on materials without making physical contact, and so there is no electrostatic charge transfer or loading of the voltage source.

  5. Eddy-current testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eddy-current_testing

    The application of a saturation eddy current technique depends on the permeability of the material, tube thickness, and diameter. [10] A method used for carbon steel tubing is remote field eddy current testing. This method is sensitive to general wall loss and not sensitive to small pits and cracks.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrometer

    Combined with an internal voltage source, the current measuring mode can be adapted to measure very high resistances, of the order of 10 17 Ω. Finally, by calculation from the known capacitance of the electrometer's input terminal, the instrument can measure very small electric charges, down to a small fraction of a picocoulomb.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current_meter

    Using Faraday's law of induction (the third of Maxwell's equations), it is possible to evaluate the variability of the averaged horizontal flow by measuring the induced electric currents. The method has a minor vertical weighting effect due to small conductivity changes at different depths. [3] Tilt Current Meter Operating Principle

  9. Eddy-current sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eddy-current_sensor

    Eddy current sensors are displacement sensors that use the principle of eddy current formation to sense displacement. These sensors measure shaft displacement in rotating machinery and have been around for many years as they offer manufacturers high-linearity, high-speed measurements, and high resolution. [ 1 ]
