Permanent Magnet Moving Col Instrument

A permanent magnet moving coil instrument is given with specifications. It requires 136 turns of wire to produce a 90 degree deflection with a 5mA current. The flux density in the air gap is calculated to be 0.12 Wb/m2. For a moving coil voltmeter with a resistance of 20Ω, the flux density is found to be 0.12 Wb/m2 and the diameter of the copper wire is calculated to be 0.2mm.
