For measuring high inductance like 100H, the bridge we use is: James Clerk Maxwell Bridge which people also call Maxwell Inductance-Capacitance Bridge. It is made for medium to high Q inductors but when the inductance is large then it still behaves nicely, so people mostly prefer this one. Audio/Video Representation Basic Concept Basic idea of […]

Electronic Measuring Tape Circuit using Ultrasound
Everyone is familiar with the mechanical measuring tape made of wood to measure human height. We offer you an original electronic version that operates based on the use of ultrasound. The circuit can be also used to measure distances between two surfaces or walls. Basic Working Ultrasounds are part of the range of sounds that […]
AC Ammeter Circuit for Measuring Current across 220 V Appliances
In this article I have explained how to build a simple AC ammeter circuit which can be used for checking the current consumption of household 220 V or 120 V appliances. The main reason for high monthly utility bills is the use of large electrical equipment like refrigerators, washers and dryers, dishwashers, etc. These appliances […]
High Voltage Meter Circuit [for Measuring 10kV]
In this article I have explained a simple high voltage meter circuit which can be used for measuring extremely high voltages in the order of many 1000s of volts. The circuit can be used to measure high voltages from CDI units, Automobile spark plugs, high voltage generators, mosquito bat circuits, fence chargers, room ionizer circuits […]
Surge Arrestor Circuit with Measuring Facility
In this post I have explained about a simple surge voltage protector circuit using a fuse and a triac crowbar circuit and also learn the method to record and measure the last maximum surge that could have destroyed the specified load in case the protection was not introduced. The idea was requested by Mr. Akram. […]
