may be connected to a Wheatstonebridge and its resistance accurately determined. The connections having been arranged as above, switch S^ isturned to the right and E adjusted, until the desired candlepower, 2, is obtained.

The re-sistance of R is now accurately measured by the Wheatstonebridge, to which it may be connected by turning switch Sg tothe left; the value thus obtained is equal…
