Activity 1 Question Paper Ec302
1. It is desired to convert a 0-1000 mA meter movement, with an internal resistance of 100 W into a 0-100 mA
meter. Calculate the required value of shunt resistance?
2. A moving coil instrument has a resistance of 10 W and takes 40 mA to produce full-scale deflection. The
shunt resistance required to convert this instrument for use as an ammeter of range 0 to 2 A is ohm resistance.
If the coil resistance of the meter is 1000 W, a potential difference of 500 mV is required across it for full-
scale deflection. Under this condition, the current in the shunt would be.
3. Ammeter and voltmeter are connected in series and parallel respectively. Why?
4. The expected value of the voltage across a resistor is 90 V. However, the measurement gives a value of 89 V.
Calculate (i) absolute error, (ii) % error, (iii) relative accuracy, and (iv)% of accuracy.
5. A moving coil voltmeter has a uniform scale with 200 divisions, the full scale reading is 400 V and 1/5 of a
scale division can be estimated with a fair degree of certainty. Determine the resolution of the instrument in
volt.
