  2. Ayrton shunt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ayrton_shunt

    Ayrton shunt switching principle. The Ayrton shunt or universal shunt is a high-resistance shunt used in galvanometers to increase their range [1] without changing the damping. [2] The circuit is named after its inventor William E. Ayrton. [3] Multirange ammeters that use this technique are more accurate than those using a make-before-break ...

  3. Ammeter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammeter

    Ayrton shunt switching principle To make a multi-range ammeter, a selector switch can be used to connect one of a number of shunts across the meter. It must be a make-before-break switch to avoid damaging current surges through the meter movement when switching ranges.

  4. Ayrton–Perry winding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ayrton–Perry_winding

    An Ayrton–Perry winding (named for William Edward Ayrton and John Perry) is a type of bifilar winding pattern used in winding wire on forms to make RF resistors. Its advantage is that the resulting coil of wire has low values of parasitic inductance and parasitic capacitance . [ 1 ]

    The marriage took place while Ayrton was on home leave from India and Matilda was involved in the Edinburgh Seven campaign. Chaplin was awarded a posthumous honorary MBChB by the University of Edinburgh in 2019. [4] Chaplin and Ayrton's daughter was the feminist and author Edith Ayrton, wife of Israel Zangwill and mother of Oliver Zangwill. [2]

  6. Equivalent impedance transforms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalent_impedance...

    The circuit is due to Hendrik Bode who claims that the addition of the bridging resistor of a suitable value will cancel the parasitic resistance of the shunt inductor. The action of this circuit is clear if it is transformed into T topology – in this form there is a negative resistance in the shunt branch which can be made to be exactly ...

  7. Performance and modelling of AC transmission - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Performance_and_modelling...

    For example, a wire's resistance is higher if it is long and thin, and lower if it is short and thick. All objects show some resistance, except for superconductors, which have a resistance of zero. The resistance (R) of an object is defined as the ratio of voltage across it (V) to current through it (I), while the conductance (G) is the inverse:
