  2. Galvanometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galvanometer

    It is an integrator, by virtue of the long time constant of its response, unlike a current-measuring galvanometer. The moving part has a large moment of inertia that gives it an oscillation period long enough to make the integrated measurement. It can be either of the moving coil or moving magnet type; commonly it is a mirror galvanometer.

  3. Ammeter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammeter

    The D'Arsonval galvanometer is a moving coil ammeter. It uses magnetic deflection, where current passing through a coil placed in the magnetic field of a permanent magnet causes the coil to move. The modern form of this instrument was developed by Edward Weston, and uses two spiral springs to provide the restoring force. The uniform air gap ...

  4. Multimeter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multimeter

    The meter movement in a moving pointer analog multimeter is practically always a moving-coil galvanometer of the d'Arsonval type, using either jeweled pivots or taut bands to support the moving coil. In a basic analog multimeter the current to deflect the coil and pointer is drawn from the circuit being measured; it is usually an advantage to ...

  5. Mirror galvanometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mirror_galvanometer

    This moving coil galvanometer is mainly used to measure very feeble or low currents of order 10 −9 A. To linearise the magnetic field across the coil throughout the galvanometer's range of movement, the d'Arsonval design of a soft iron cylinder is placed inside the coil without touching it. This gives a consistent radial field, rather than a ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacques-Arsène_d'Arsonval

    Jacques-Arsène d'Arsonval (8 June 1851 – 31 December 1940) was a French physician, physicist and inventor of the moving-coil D'Arsonval galvanometer and the thermocouple ammeter. D'Arsonval was an important contributor to the emerging field of electrophysiology , the study of the effects of electricity on biological organisms , in the ...

  9. Current sensing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current_sensing

    Diagram of D'Arsonval/Weston type galvanometer. As the current flows from + terminal of the coil to − terminal, a magnetic field is generated in the coil.This field is counteracted by the permanent magnet and forces the coil to twist, moving the pointer, in relation to the field's strength caused by the flow of current.
