  2. Tacheometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tacheometry

    A theodolite is used to measure the horizontal angle between indicators on the two ends of the subtense bar. The distance from the telescope to the subtense bar is the height of an isosceles triangle formed with the theodolite at the upper vertex and the subtense bar length at its base, determined by trigonometry.

  3. Test probe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Test_probe

    More advanced current probes combine a Hall effect sensor with a current transformer. The Hall effect sensor measures the DC and low frequency components of the signal and the current transformer measures the high frequency components. These signals are combined in the amplifier circuit to yield a wide band signal extending from DC to over 50 MHz.

  4. Theodolite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theodolite

    A theodolite (/ θ i ˈ ɒ d ə ˌ l aɪ t /) [1] is a precision optical instrument for measuring angles between designated visible points in the horizontal and vertical planes. The traditional use has been for land surveying , but it is also used extensively for building and infrastructure construction , and some specialized applications such ...

  5. Rogowski coil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rogowski_coil

    The difference from the traditional Rogowski coil is that the sensor can be manufactured using a planar coil rather than a toroidal coil. In order to reject the influence of conductors outside the sensor's measurement region, these planar Rogowski current sensors use a concentric coil geometry instead of a toroidal geometry to limit the ...

  6. Total station - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_station

    A total station or total station theodolite is an electronic/optical instrument used for surveying and building construction. It is an electronic transit theodolite integrated with electronic distance measurement (EDM) to measure both vertical and horizontal angles and the slope distance from the instrument to a particular point, and an on ...

  7. Tachometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tachometer

    A tachometer (revolution-counter, tach, rev-counter, RPM gauge) is an instrument measuring the rotation speed of a shaft or disk, as in a motor or other machine. [1] The device usually displays the revolutions per minute (RPM) on a calibrated analogue dial, but digital displays are increasingly common.

  8. Hall effect sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hall_effect_sensor

    In such a case the Hall sensor is mounted in a gap in the magnetic core around the current conductor. [24] As a result, the DC magnetic flux can be measured, and the DC in the conductor can be calculated. Hall effect current sensor with internal integrated circuit amplifier. 8 mm opening.

  9. Stadia mark - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stadia_mark

    S is the difference between the rod readings at the two stadia marks For example, a typical stadia mark pair are set so that the ratio is 100. If one observes a vertical length on a stadia rod, rule or levelling rod with the telescope and sees that the rod spans 0.500 m between the marks (the stadia interval ), then the horizontal distance from ...
