Galvanometer zero center

Uses of Galvanometer zero centre

• Current Measurement:

It measures both AC and DC currents, allowing for precise readings in experiments involving small electrical currents.

• Calibration of Instruments:

It helps in calibrating other measuring instruments by providing a reference point for current measurements.

• Testing Circuit Elements:

The galvanometer can test the functionality of components like resistors, capacitors, and inductors by measuring the current passing through them.

• Voltage Measurement:
• When used in conjunction with a known resistance, it can indirectly measure voltage through Ohm’s law (V = IR).
• Detection of Faults:

It aids in diagnosing electrical faults in circuits by indicating unexpected current flow.

• Educational Purposes:

It serves as a teaching tool in physics and electronics labs, helping students understand concepts of current, resistance, and circuit behavior.

• Electrochemical Experiments:

In electrochemistry, it’s used to measure small currents during electrolysis or redox reactions.

• Research Applications:

It assists researchers in measuring and analyzing small current flows in various experimental setups.
