  2. Multimeter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multimeter

    The meter comprised a moving coil meter, voltage and precision resistors, and switches and sockets to select the range. The first Avometer had a sensitivity of 60 Ω/V, three direct current ranges (12 mA, 1.2 A, and 12 A), three direct voltage ranges (12, 120, and 600 V or optionally 1,200 V), and a 10,000 Ω resistance range. An improved ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pole_piece

    A moving coil meter has a different and equally distinctive structure. A horseshoe magnet with a keeper in use A magnet keeper is a specialised pole piece used to temporarily connect the poles of a permanent magnet, to help to preserve the magnetism, and for safety in the case of large and powerful magnets.

  4. Frequency meter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency_meter

    Normally the moving coil is suspended from a pivot above it, so the linear motion along the core causes the coil, and an attached pointer, to rotate over a dial. [5] The Weston frequency meter also uses tuned circuits, but in this case it is the relative inductance between two such circuits that creates the meter's movements.

  5. Power factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_factor

    A direct reading power factor meter can be made with a moving coil meter of the electrodynamic type, carrying two perpendicular coils on the moving part of the instrument. The field of the instrument is energized by the circuit current flow. The two moving coils, A and B, are connected in parallel with the circuit load.

  7. Ammeter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammeter

    Moving iron ammeters use a piece of iron which moves when acted upon by the electromagnetic force of a fixed coil of wire. The moving-iron meter was invented by Austrian engineer Friedrich Drexler in 1884. [5] This type of meter responds to both direct and alternating currents (as opposed to the moving-coil ammeter, which works on direct ...

  9. House price index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/House_price_index

    A house price index (HPI) measures the price changes of residential housing as a percentage change from some specific start date (which has an HPI of 100). Methodologies commonly used to calculate an HPI are hedonic regression (HR), simple moving average (SMA), and repeat-sales regression (RSR).
