Question
Download Solution PDFInductance of a coil having Q value in the range of (1 < Q < 10), can be measured by using
Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFMaxwell’s inductance bridge:
In Maxwell’s inductance bridge resistance is connected in parallel with the standard capacitor. It is commonly used for measurement of Inductance of a coil having Q value in the range of (1< Q < 10).
Hay’s bridge:
In Hay’s bridge, a resistance is connected in series with a standard capacitor. Hay’s bridge is used for the measurement of the inductance of coils with high-quality factor (Q > 10)

Application |
|
Maxwell's Bridge |
To measure inductance |
|
Maxwell Wein Bridge |
To measure a wide range of inductance at the power and audio frequencies but very expensive. Suitable for low Q coils (Q < 10) |
|
Hay's bridge |
To measure the high value of inductance. Suitable for high Q coils (Q > 10) |
|
Anderson Bridge |
Precise measurement of self-inductance over a wide range of values |
