2. 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 ...

3. Wattmeter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wattmeter

   A wattmeter reads the average value of the product v(t)i(t) = p(t), where v(t) is the voltage with positive reference polarity at the ± terminal with respect to the other terminal of the potential coil, and i(t) is the current with reference direction flowing into the ± terminal of the current coil. The wattmeter reads P = (1/T) ∫ 0 T v(t)i ...

4. Megohmmeter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megohmmeter

   Megohmmeter M1101M. A Megohmmeter or insulation resistance tester, is a special type of ohmmeter used to measure the electrical resistance of insulators. [1] Insulating components, for example cable jackets, must be tested for their insulation strength at the time of commissioning and as part of maintenance of high voltage electrical equipment and installations.

5. Multimeter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multimeter

   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-impedance circuit so much as to affect the circuit, thereby ...

6. Rogowski coil - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rogowski_coil

   A Rogowski coil is a toroid of wire used to measure an alternating current I(t) through a cable encircled by the toroid. The picture shows a Rogowski coil encircling a current-carrying cable. The output of the coil, v(t), is connected to a lossy integrator circuit to obtain a voltage V out (t) that is proportional to I(t).

7. Dielectric withstand test - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dielectric_withstand_test

   An insulation test set; in this pattern, a hand-cranked generator provides the high voltage and the scale is directly calibrated in megohms. Voltage withstand testing is done with a high-voltage source and voltage and current meters. A single instrument called a "pressure test set" or "hipot tester" is often used to perform this test.
