s the current flowing in amperes as read from the ammeter. If the readings of the voltmeter be correct to T-J-ff and the ammeter read-ings be correct to the same degree, the possible error becomes : 100 x (iniU+ tsrt) = Per cent- measurement of Very Small Resistances with a HEillivolt-meter and… … Fig. 46. In order to have a reasonable degree of accuracy in measuring resistanceby the drop method, as this is called, it is necessary that as heavy cur-rents as may be available be used. Then, if E be the dynamo or other sourceof steady E.M.F., X be the required resistance of a portion of the…
