measuring a very heavy current. Method 2. — This method differs from Method 1 only in that the sec-ondary is short-circuited directly on itself, an ammeter being inserted in theprimary circuit. The diagram of connections is shown in Fig. 64. In con-necting up the voltmeter and the potential coil of… … Fig. 64. Impedance Test with Wattmeter.Having the readings of amperes, volts, and watts, we obtain from thefirst two the impedance of the transformer. This impedance is the geo-metrical sum of the resistance and reactance, and is expressed algebraicallyas follows : Z=ViJ2-+-(2B7lZ)8» where z =…
