Summary
| Description |
English: An illustration for how to use a potentiometer and known voltage supply to measure a voltage across a portion of an unknown circuit. The potentiometer's resistance is changed at the wiper until the null detector shows zero voltage between the two circuits.
where Vt: Voltage across test points Vk: Known voltage Re: Potentiometer resistance from one end terminal to the other end terminal Rw: Potentiometer resistance from wiper to end terminal |
