Answer the questions.
How does ammeter work?
What do you know about voltmeter?
What are the meters constructed for?
When do we obtain a true indication of current?
What is wattmeter?
What do you know about A.C. meter and how do they work?
Are the following sentences True or False?
All meters which measure current are ammeters.
Deflection is arranged to be proportional to the amount of current through the coil.
The basic D.C. meter movement uses the pivoted coil and a temporary magnet.
The basic construction is sometimes called the Weston meter movement.
Dynamometers are more flexible than PM type meter, more sensitive and less expensive.
The vane has a coil.
Rectifier elements mounted with the meter case may be copper, oxide, selenium, germanium or silicon.

Амперметр – прибор для измерения силы тока в амперах. Шкалу амперметров градуируют в микроамперах, миллиамперах, амперах или килоамперах в соответствии с пределами измерения прибора. В электрическую цепь амперметр включается последовательно с тем участком электрической цепи, в котором измеряют силу тока; для увеличения предела измерений – шунтом или через трансформатор.
Наиболее распространены амперметры, в которых движущаяся часть прибора со стрелкой поворачивается на угол, пропорциональный величине измеряемого тока. Амперметры бывают магнитоэлектрическими, электромагнитными, электродинамическими, тепловыми, индукционными, детекторными, термоэлектрическими и фотоэлектрическими.
Магнитоэлектрическими амперметрами измеряют силу постоянного тока; индукционными и детекторными – силу переменного тока; амперметры других систем измеряют силу любого тока. Самыми точными и чувствительными являются магнитоэлектрические и электродинамические амперметры.
На практике амперметрами обычно называют приборы с пределом измерений от 1 А и более. Приборы с пределом меньше 1 А называют миллиамперметрами, меньше 1 мА – микроамперметрами.
Принцип действия магнитоэлектрического прибора основан на создании крутящего момента, благодаря взаимодействию между полем постоянного магнита и током, который проходит через обмотку рамки. С рамкой соединена стрелка, которая перемещается по шкале. Угол поворота стрелки пропорционален силе тока.
Электродинамические амперметры состоят из неподвижной и подвижной катушек, соединённых параллельно или последовательно. Взаимодействия между токами, которые проходят через катушки, вызывает отклонения подвижной катушки и соединённой с нею стрелки. В электрическом контуре амперметр соединяется последовательно с нагрузкой, а при высоком напряжении или больших токах – через трансформатор.
Give the summary of the text.
A voltmeter is an instrument used for measuring the electrical potential difference between two points in an electric circuit. Analog voltmeters move a pointer across a scale in proportion to the voltage of the circuit; digital voltmeters give a numerical display of voltage by use of an analog to digital converter.
Voltmeters are made in a wide range of styles. Instruments permanently mounted in a panel are used to monitor generators or other fixed apparatus. Portable instruments, usually equipped to also measure current and resistance in the form of a multimeter, are standard test instruments used in electrical and electronics work. Any measurement that can be converted to a voltage can be displayed on a meter that is suitably calibrated; for example, pressure, temperature, flow or level in a chemical process plant.
General purpose analog voltmeters may have an accuracy of a few per cent of full scale, and are used with voltages from a fraction of a volt to several thousand volts. Digital meters can be made with high accuracy, typically better than 1%. Specially calibrated test instruments have higher accuracies, with laboratory instruments capable of measuring to accuracies of a few parts per million. Meters using amplifiers can measure tiny voltages of microvolt or less.
Part of the problem of making an accurate voltmeter is that of calibration to check its accuracy. In laboratories, the Weston Cell is used as a standard voltage for precision work. Precision voltage references are available based on electronic circuits.
