Measurement and Instrumentation

This document discusses various comparison methods of electrical measurements, including potentiometers, bridges, and techniques for measuring resistance, inductance, capacitance, and frequency. It provides details on DC and AC potentiometers, bridges, and transformer ratio bridges for comparison measurements. It also discusses methods for measuring low, medium, and high resistance, such as Wheatstone bridges, as well as techniques for measuring self and mutual inductance like Maxwell's bridges. Measurement of capacitance using bridges like the Schering bridge is also covered.
