2. Multimeter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multimeter

   Any meter will load the circuit under test to some extent. For example, a multimeter using a moving coil movement with full-scale deflection current of 50 microamps (μA), the highest sensitivity commonly available, must draw at least 50 μA from the circuit under test for the meter to reach the top end of its scale. This may load a high ...

3. Growler (electrical device) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Growler_(electrical_device)

   A growler is an electrical device primarily used for testing a motor for shorted coils. A growler consists of a coil of wire wrapped around an iron core and connected to a source of alternating current. When placed on the armature or stator core of a motor the growler acts as the primary of a transformer and the armature coils act as the ...

4. Continuity test - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuity_test

   In electronics, a continuity test is the checking of an electric circuit to see if current flows (that it is in fact a complete circuit). A continuity test is performed by placing a small voltage (wired in series with an LED or noise-producing component such as a piezoelectric speaker ) across the chosen path.

   Creates constant-amplitude variable frequency sine waves to test frequency response Transistor tester: Tests transistors Tube tester: Tests vacuum tubes (triode, tetrode etc.) Wattmeter: Measures power in a circuit Vectorscope: Displays the phase of the colors in color TV Video signal generator: Generates video signal for testing purposes Voltmeter

6. Current sensing - Wikipedia

   where A is the cross-sectional area of the coil and N is the number of turns. The Rogowski coil has a low sensitivity due to the absence of a high permeability magnetic core that the current transformer can take advantage of. However, this can be compensated for by adding more turns on the Rogowski coil or using an integrator with a higher gain k.

7. Eddy-current testing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eddy-current_testing

   Variations in the electrical conductivity and magnetic permeability of the test object, and the presence of defects causes a change in eddy current and a corresponding change in phase and amplitude that can be detected by measuring the impedance changes in the coil, which is a telltale sign of the presence of defects.
