  2. Kelvin bridge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kelvin_bridge

    To overcome this, a second pair of resistors R′ 1 and R′ 2 form a second pair of arms of the bridge (hence 'double bridge') and are connected to the inner potential terminals of R s and R x (identified as P 2 and P′ 2 in the diagram). The detector D is connected between the junction of R 1 and R 2 and the junction of R′ 1 and R′ 2. [2]

  3. Bridge circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bridge_circuit

    Analysis of bridge current. From the figure to the right, the bridge current is represented as I 5. Per Thévenin's theorem, finding the Thévenin equivalent circuit which is connected to the bridge load R 5 and using the arbitrary current flow I 5, we have: Thevenin Source (V th) is given by the formula:

  4. Four-terminal sensing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four-terminal_sensing

    Four-point measurement of resistance between voltage sense connections 2 and 3. Current is supplied via force connections 1 and 4. In electrical engineering, four-terminal sensing (4T sensing), 4-wire sensing, or 4-point probes method is an electrical impedance measuring technique that uses separate pairs of current-carrying and voltage-sensing electrodes to make more accurate measurements ...

  5. Carey Foster bridge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carey_Foster_bridge

    The two remaining arms are the nearly equal resistances P and Q, connected in the inner gaps of the bridge. A standard Wheatstone bridge for comparison. Points A, B, C and D in both circuit diagrams correspond. X and Y correspond to R 1 and R 2, P and Q correspond to R 3 and R X. Note that with the Carey Foster bridge, we are measuring R 1 ...

  6. Kelvin–Varley divider - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kelvin–Varley_divider

    The final stage of a Kelvin–Varley divider is just a Kelvin divider. For a decade divider, there will be ten equal value resistors. Let the value of each resistor be R n Ohms. The input impedance of the entire string will be 10 R n. Alternatively, the last stage can be a two resistor bridge tap.

  7. Liquid junction potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_junction_potential

    The most common method of eliminating the liquid junction potential is to place a salt bridge consisting of a saturated solution of potassium chloride (KCl) and ammonium nitrate (NH 4 NO 3) with lithium acetate (CH 3 COOLi) between the two solutions constituting the junction. When such a bridge is used, the ions in the bridge are present in ...

  8. Kelvin water dropper - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kelvin_water_dropper

    Fig. 3: A Kelvin water dropper set up at the 2014 Cambridge Science Festival If the buckets are metal conductors, then the built-up charge resides on the outside of the metal, not in the water. This is part of the electrical induction process, and is an example of the related " Faraday's ice bucket ".

  9. Wien bridge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wien_bridge

    The Wien bridge is a type of bridge circuit that was developed by Max Wien in 1891. [1] The bridge consists of four resistors and two capacitors . At the time of the Wien bridge's invention, bridge circuits were a common way of measuring component values by comparing them to known values.
