Electrical measuring instruments are classified as indicating, recording, or integrating. Indicating instruments have a dial and pointer to show measurements. Recording instruments provide a continuous record of measurements. Integrating instruments totalize measurements over time, like an energy meter. Moving iron instruments are commonly used indicating instruments that work based on the attraction or repulsion of movable iron pieces in a coil carrying a current. They can measure both AC and DC due to their unidirectional deflection torque.
The electrodynamometer is a moving-coil instrument that uses a fixed coil to produce a magnetic field, rather than a permanent magnet. It can be used as an ammeter, voltmeter, or wattmeter for both AC and DC measurements up to 125Hz. It provides very high accuracy and is used in laboratories for calibrating other instruments. The moving coil is subjected to a torque based on the current in the fixed and moving coils and their mutual inductance. While expensive, it has advantages of being usable for both AC and DC and being free from hysteresis and eddy current losses due to its air-cored coils. However, it has low sensitivity and torque.

Load commutation relies on the load current becoming zero or transferring to another device. Circuits for the voltage-commutated and current-commutated choppers are presented. Finally, multiphase choppers using two or more parallel choppers in either in-phase or phase-shifted operation modes are introduced.
This document discusses different types of controlled rectifiers used in power electronics. It describes single phase and three phase rectifiers that are classified based on their input supply, quadrant of operation, number of pulses, and applications. Controlled rectifiers use thyristors instead of diodes for phase control. The document provides examples of half wave and full wave rectifiers with resistive and inductive-resistive loads. It also discusses three phase rectifiers and how they have reduced ripple content and can be used for high power applications.
Power electronics deals with controlling and converting electric power using solid-state electronics. It involves power equipment for generation, transmission and distribution as well as electronic devices and circuits for signal processing and control objectives. Some key developments include the mercury arc rectifier in 1900, silicon transistor in 1948, and thyristor or SCR in 1956. Power electronic converters are now used for applications like UPS, motor speed control, power transmission, and power supplies due to advantages like fast response, high efficiency and compact size, though they can generate harmonics and have low power factors requiring correction. Power electronic converters work by classifying and controlling the operation of power semiconductor devices like power diodes, SCRs, BJTs, MOSFETs

1) Thermal power plants have minimum up and down time constraints due to the time required to bring units online and cool them back down. One hour is typically the smallest time period considered for unit commitment.
2) Economic dispatch aims to minimize total operating costs given demand and transmission constraints. This is done by allocating generation across available units to equalize their marginal costs.

Advanced control scheme of doubly fed induction generator for wind turbine us...IJECEIAES
This paper describes a speed control device for generating electrical energy on an electricity network based on the doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) used for wind power conversion systems. At first, a double-fed induction generator model was constructed. A control law is formulated to govern the flow of energy between the stator of a DFIG and the energy network using three types of controllers: proportional integral (PI), sliding mode controller (SMC) and second order sliding mode controller (SOSMC). Their different results in terms of power reference tracking, reaction to unexpected speed fluctuations, sensitivity to perturbations, and resilience against machine parameter alterations are compared. MATLAB/Simulink was used to conduct the simulations for the preceding study. Multiple simulations have shown very satisfying results, and the investigations demonstrate the efficacy and power-enhancing capabilities of the suggested control system.
Using recycled concrete aggregates (RCA) for pavements is crucial to achieving sustainability. Implementing RCA for new pavement can minimize carbon footprint, conserve natural resources, reduce harmful emissions, and lower life cycle costs. Compared to natural aggregate (NA), RCA pavement has fewer comprehensive studies and sustainability assessments.

DEEP LEARNING FOR SMART GRID INTRUSION DETECTION: A HYBRID CNN-LSTM-BASED MODELgerogepatton
As digital technology becomes more deeply embedded in power systems, protecting the communication
networks of Smart Grids (SG) has emerged as a critical concern. Distributed Network Protocol 3 (DNP3)
represents a multi-tiered application layer protocol extensively utilized in Supervisory Control and Data
Acquisition (SCADA)-based smart grids to facilitate real-time data gathering and control functionalities.
Robust Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) are necessary for early threat detection and mitigation because
of the interconnection of these networks, which makes them vulnerable to a variety of cyberattacks. To
solve this issue, this paper develops a hybrid Deep Learning (DL) model specifically designed for intrusion
detection in smart grids. The proposed approach is a combination of the Convolutional Neural Network
(CNN) and the Long-Short-Term Memory algorithms (LSTM). We employed a recent intrusion detection
dataset (DNP3), which focuses on unauthorized commands and Denial of Service (DoS) cyberattacks, to
train and test our model. The results of our experiments show that our CNN-LSTM method is much better
at finding smart grid intrusions than other deep learning algorithms used for classification. In addition,
our proposed approach improves accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score, achieving a high detection
accuracy rate of 99.50%.
2. CLASSIFICATION OF
INSTRUMENTS
Electrical measuring instruments are mainly
classified as:
1. Indicating Instruments
2. Recording Instruments
3. Integrating Instruments
1. Indicating Instruments
These instruments make use of a dial and pointer
for showing or indicating magnitude of unknown
quantity.
Examples of this instruments are ammeter,
voltmeter, wattmeter etc.
3. 2. Recording Instruments
These instruments give a continuous record of the given
electrical quantity
The examples are various types of recorders. In such
recording instruments, the readings are recorded by
drawing the graph. The pointer of such instruments is
provided with a marker
3. Integrating Instruments
Integrating Instruments are those instruments which
totalize the events over a specified period of time. The
output of such instruments is the product of time and an
electrical quantity.
For example, a house energy meter , Unit of energy is
kwhr.
4. BASIC PRINCIPLE OF INDICATING
INSTRUMENTS
Three types of operating forces
i) Deflecting force
ii) Controlling force and
iii) Damping force
i) Deflecting Torque/Force
The deflecting torque’s value is dependent upon the
electrical signal to be measured; this torque/force helps in
rotating the instrument movement from its zero position.
The system producing the deflecting torque is called the
deflecting system.
5. ii) Controlling Torque/Force
The act of this torque/force is opposite to the deflecting
torque/force.
When the deflecting and controlling torques are equal in
magnitude then the movement will be in definite position or
in equilibrium.
Spiral springs or gravity is usually given to produce the
controlling torque.
The system which produces the controlling torque is called
the controlling system.
iii) Damping Torque/Force
When a deflection force is applied to the moving system,
its deflects and it should come to rest at a position where
the deflecting force is balanced by the controlling force.
The moving system cannot immediately settle at its final
position but overshoot or swings ahead of it. So in order to
6. Controlling System
It is the system that provides a force equal and
opposite to the deflecting force. Controlling forces are
applied in two ways.
i) Spring Control (used in modern instruments)
ii) Gravity Control ( not properly used)
i) Spring Control
A spring attached to the moving system produces a
controlling torque. The requirements for spring are
1. They should be non- magnetic.
2. They should be free from mechanical fatigue.
3. They should have a small resistance, where springs are
used to lead the current into moving system.
8. ii) Gravity Control
Figure shows the gravity control, in which two weights,
balance weight and control weight are attached to the
spindle of the moving system.
The balance weight is used to balance the weight of the
pointer. The controlling torque is produced by control
weight.
The controlling torque is proportional to the sine of the
angle deflection 'θ'
9. Damping System
Damping system is provided in order to bring the pointer
to rest within short time.
The quickness with which the moving system settles to
the final steady position
When the moving system oscillates about final steady
position with a decreasing amplitude and takes some
time to come to rest, then the instrument is said to be
under damping.
When the moving system moves rapidly but smoothly to
its final steady position, then the instrument is said to be
critically damped or deadbeat.
When the instrument is over damped, the moving
10. Generally, underdamped system is preferred for any
instrument.
Various methods used for producing damping torque
are,
i) Air friction damping
ii) Fluid friction damping and
iii) Eddy current damping
11. i) Air Friction damping
The air friction damping system which consists of a
light aluminium piston attached to the moving system
(i.e., pointer).
The piston moves in a fixed air chamber which is
closed at one end.
The clearance between the piston and chamber wall
is uniform throughout the chamber and it is very
small.
When there is oscillations in the pointer, the piston will
move inside the air chamber.
12. ii) Fluid Friction Damping
As the viscosity of oil is greater than air, the damping
force of this type of damping the greater than air friction
damping.
The disc is dipped into the oil pot and it is completely
submerged in oil. When the moving system moves, the
disc moves in oil and which always opposes the motion.
13. iii) Eddy Current Damping
The eddy current damping which is the most effective
way to provide damping. It is based on Faraday's law
and Lenz's Law.
When a conductor moves in a magnetic field, it cuts the
magnetic field and hence emf is induced. This induced
emf opposes the causes producing it, thus opposing
14. In this method, an aluminium disc is connected to the
spindle which is inturn connected to the pointer.
A part of the aluminium disc is inserted into the damping
magnet which is a permanent magnet.
When the pointer oscillates, the aluminium disc rotates
which inturn cuts the magnetic field of the damping
magnet.
So, an emf is induced in the disc. As the disc is a closed
path, eddy current flows through the disc which
opposes the cause producing it i.e., the pointer
oscillation, thus hunting the pointer oscillation.
15. MOVING IRON INSTRUMENTS
There are two types
Moving iron attraction type instruments
Moving iron repulsion type instruments
Moving iron attraction type instruments
It consist of fixed coil C and moving iron piece D.
The coil is flat and has a narrow slot like opening.
The moving iron is a flat disc or a sector eccentrically
mounted on the spindle.
The spindle is supported between the jewel bearings.
The spindle carries a pointer which moves over a
graduated scale.
16. Following consequences happens
Current in coil→ produce magnetic field → attract disc →
pointer moves → so measure current.
Tc provide by spring
Td provide as air friction damping
17. Moving iron repulsion type
instruments
Two vanes inside the coil, one is fixed and other is
movable
When the current flows in the coil, both the vanes are
magnetised with like polarities induced on the same
side.
Both vanes gets magnetized and get repulsive each
other. So pointer moves
It has two types
Radial vane type
Coaxial vane type
18. 1. Radial Vane Repulsion Type Instrument
The two vanes are radial strips of iron. The fixed vane is
attached to the coil.
The movable vane is attached to the spindle and
suspended in the induction field of the coil.
Even though the current through the coil is alternating,
there is always repulsion between the like poles of the
fixed and the movable vane. Hence the deflection of the
19. 2. Co-axial Vane Repulsion Type Instrument
In this type of instrument, the fixed and moving vanes are
sections of co axial cylinders
20. The controlling torque is provided by springs.
The damping torque is provided by air friction
damping.
Eddy current damping cannot be used in moving iron
type instruments, because introduction of permanent
magnet required for eddy current damping would
distort the operating magnetic field of MI instruments
which is very weak.
Moving Iron type of instruments can be used for both
AC and DC measurements
21. Torque Equation of Moving Iron
Instruments
The energy stored in the coil in the form of magnetic
field = (1/2)LI2.
As soon as the current changes to (I+dI), deflection in
the pointer becomes dƟ resulting into change in
inductance of coil from L to (L+dL).
Let this deflection in pointer is due to deflection torque
Td.
Mechanical work done = Td . dƟ ………………..(1)
Energy stored in Coil = (1/2)(L+dL)(I+dI)2
Change in stored energy of coil = Final Stored Energy –
Initial Stored Energy
22. = (1/2)(L+dL)(I+dI)2 – (1/2)LI2
= (1/2)[ (L+dL)(I+dI)2 – I2L]
= (1/2)[ (L+dL)(I2+2IdI+(dI)2 – I2L]
= (1/2)[ LI2+2LIdI+L(dI)2 + dL.I2+2IdI.dL+dL.(dI)2 – I2L]
Neglecting second order and higher terms of differential
quantities
i.e. L(dI)2, 2IdI.dL and dL . (dI)2 = (1/2)[ 2LIdI+dL.I2]
= LIdI +(1/2)dL.I2 ……………………(2)
We can write as, e = d(LI) / dt
= IdL/dt + LdI/dt
But electrical energy supplied by the source = eIdt
= (IdL + LdI)
. I
23. According to law of conservation of energy, this
electrical energy supplied by the source is converted
into stored energy in the coil and mechanical work done
for deflection of needle of Moving Iron Instruments.
I2dL + LIdI = Change in stored energy + Work done
⇒ I2dL + LIdI = LIdI +(1/2)dL . I2 + Td . dƟ
⇒ Td . dƟ = (1/2)dL.I2
⇒ Td = (1/2)I2(dL/dƟ)
Thus deflecting torque in Moving iron Instruments is
given as
Td = (1/2)I2(dL/dƟ)
In moving iron instruments, the controlling torque is
provided by spring. Controlling torque due to spring is
given as
T = KƟ in N-m
24. In equilibrium state,
Deflecting Torque = Controlling Torque
⇒ Td = Tc
⇒ (1/2)I2(dL/dƟ) = KƟ
⇒ Ɵ = (1/2)(I2/K)(dL/dƟ)
Ɵ α I2
The deflection torque is unidirectional whatever may
be the polarity of the current.
Hence, the MI instruments can be used for both AC
and DC.
25. Errors in Moving Iron
Instruments
1. Errors with both A.C and D.C work:
(a) Hysteresis error.
(b) Stray magnetic field error.

(d) Friction error.
2. Errors with A.C work only:
(e) Frequency error.
(f) Error due to reactance of the instrument coil.

(h) Error due to waveform.
26. Advantages of Moving iron

These types of instruments have high value of torque to
weight ratio. Due to this error because of friction is quite
low.
It is very cheap due to simple construction.
There is no moving part in the instrument which carries
current.
These instruments can be designed to provide precision
and industrial grade accuracy. A well designed moving
iron instruments have a error of less than 2 % or less for
DC. For AC, the accuracy of the instrument may be of
the order of 0.2 to 0.3 % at 50 Hz.
Not damaged even under sever overload conditions.
27. Disadvantages of Moving Iron
Instruments
These instruments suffer from error due to hysteresis,
frequency change and stray losses.
The scale of moving iron instrument is not uniform.
Accurate readings are not possible at lower range.
If it is used at 50 Hz, calibration must also be done at
the same frequency i.e. 50 Hz.
Moving Iron Instruments are suitable for low frequency
application. Moving iron instruments are not suitable for
frequency above 125 Hz.
The reading of the instrument is affected by
temperature variation.

The permanent magnet moving coil instrument is the
most accurate type for d.c. measurements.
Basic Principle
The action of these instruments is based on the motoring
principle.
When a current carrying coil is placed in the magnetic field
produced by permanent magnet, the coil experiences a
forced and moves.
As the coil is moving and the magnet is permanent, the
instrument is called permanent magnet moving coil
instrument.
The basic principle is called D' Arsonval principle.
30. The moving coil is either rectangular or circular in
shape.
The controlling torque is provided by the method of
spring control with the help of two phosphor bronze hair
springs.
The damping torque is provided by the movement of the
aluminium former in the magnetic field produced by the
permanent magnet.
The scale markings of the basic d.c. PMMC instruments
are usually linearly spaced
31. Torque Equation for PMMC
The deflecting torque is given by,
Td = NBAI
Td = GI
Where, G = NBA = constant
The controlling torque is provided by the springs
Tc = KØ
For the final steady state position,
Td = Tc
Therefore GI = KØ
Ø = (G/K)I or I = (K/G) Ø
Ø α I
32. Errors in PMMC Instrument
Errors due to permanent magnets
Error may appear in PMMC Instrument due to the
aging of the spring.
Change in the resistance of the moving coil with
the temperature

38. INDUCTION TYPE ENERGY
METER
Energy meters is an integrating instrument which
measures quantity of electricity.
These meters record the energy in kilo-watt-hours
(kWh).
Energy meter is an instrument used to measure energy
which is the total power consumed over a specific
interval of time.
Unit of energy is kWh or Joules.
Energy = Power x Time
39. Basic Principle
The operation of the induction type energy meter is based
on the passage of alternating current through two coils
Magnetic field which interacts with a aluminium disc
supported near the coils and make the disc rotates.
The current coil carries the line current and develops
magnetic field. This magnetic field is in phase with the
line current.
The pressure coil is highly inductive, hence the current
through it lags behind the supply voltage by 90̊.
Due to this, a rotating field develops which interacts with
the disc to rotate.
40. Construction Details
i) Driving System ii) Moving System
iii) Braking System iv) Registering System
41. i) Driving System

shunt magnet.
The flux produced by the shunt magnet is bought in exact
quadrature with supply voltage
ii) Moving System
Moving System consists of an aluminium disc
The moving system is connected to a hardened steel
pivot which is screwed to the foot of the shaft.
The Pivot is supported by a jewel bearing. In this type of
energy meter, as there is no controlling torque
42. iii) Braking System
The braking system consists of a permanent magnet
positioned near the edge of the aluminium disc.
The aluminium disc moves in the field of this magnet and
this provides a braking torque.
iv) Registering System / Counting System
The function of a registering or counting mechanism is to
record continuously a number which is proportional to the
revolutions made by the moving system.
43. Operation
The C.C carries the load current. It produces the magnetic
fields in phase with the line current.
The P.C carries current proportional to the supply voltage.
The magnetic field due to pressure coil lags approximately
90̊ behind the supply voltage
The magnetic field due to current coil develops eddy

It requires less maintenance.
Disadvantages of induction type energy meters
The main disadvantage is that it can be used only for a.c.
circuits.
The creeping can cause error.
Lack of symmetry in magnetic circuit may cause errors.
45. INTRODUCTION TO
TRANSDUCERS
A transducer is a sensing device, it converts physical
phenomenon into electrical, pneumatic or hydraulic
output signal.
Mostly use definition in electrical instrumentation field
is, transducer is a device, which converts physical
quantity into electrical quantity.

1. Ruggedness
2. Linearity
3. Repeatability
4. High output signal quality
5. High reliability and stability
6. Good dynamic response
7. No hysteresis
8. Residual reformation
46. CLASSIFICATION OF
TRANSDUCERS
Classification based on transduction principle
used
Classified as resistive, inductive, capacitive depending
upon how they convert input quantity resistance,
inductance, and capacitance respectively.
Primary and Secondary transducers
Primary
Transducers senses the input physical quantity directly and
convert directly into electrical quantity output.
Secondary
Input signal is sensed by other some detector or sensor and then
its output is given to transducer in other form then the transducer
converts the secondary signal into electrical.
47. Active and Passive transducers
Active
Converts physical quantity into electrical quantity directly
So it is called self generating type transducers.
Passive
In this transducer the electrical parameters resistance, inductance,
and capacitance changes with change in input signal are called
passive transducers.
Analog and Digital transducers
Analog transducers:
Output of analog transducer is continuous function of time.
Digital transducers:
Output of this type transducer is pulses or discrete form
48. Transducers and Inverse transducers
Transducers:
Transducer is a device, which converts input
physical quantity into output electrical quantity.
Inverse transducers:
Inverse transducer is a device, which converts
Input electrical quantity and output physical
quantity.
49. Capacitive transducer
The principle based on capacitance of a parallel
plate capacitor
C= εA/d= εoεrA/d
The change capacitance caused by
Change in overlapping area
Change in distance “d” between the plates
Change in dielectric constant
These are changes due to changing the force,
displacement and pressure
The change in capacitance causes change in
dielectric constant. Also measure the liquid level
50. variation of overlapping area of
plates
C α A, capacitance changes linearly with change
in area of plates
51. The area changes linearly with the displacement
and also the capacitance
Char are linear. But initially non linearity due to
edge effects
Parallel plate capacitor, the capacitance is
C= εA/d= (εXW/d)* F
X= length of overlapping portion of plates in m
W= width of overlapping portion of plates in m
Sensitivity as
Cylindrical capacitor whose over lapping area is
varied by varying length of over lapping portion of
cylinder
Cylindrical transducer as shown
52. Capacitance as
S=const. Then relationship between capacitance
and displacement is linear
Fig shows two plate capacitor
53. Angular displacement to measured is applied
movable plate
The angular displacement changes the effective
area between area of plate and thus changes the
capacitance
54. Capacitive transducers- By variation
of distance between the plates
C α (1/d), used to measure linear displacement
55. Here one plate fixed and other plate moving
Moving plates moving away from or towards the
fixed plate as per displacement under
measurement, so capacitance decreases or
increases
Capacitance measured by AC bridges circuit, so
displacement of moving plate is determined
Curve is non linear. Sensitivity is high for initial
portion of curve
57. It have three plates,
P1, P2→ Fixed plate

Force requirement of capacitive transducer is
very small and require small power to operate
them
61. Disadvantages of capacitive
transducers
Very high o/p impedance. So complicated
measuring circuit
Stray capacitance including that cables etc in
parallel with o/p impedance of transducer also
causes error and introduces non linearity
The cable connecting the transducer to the
measuring point is also a source of error. The
cable may br source of loading resulting in loss of
sensitivity. Also loading makes the low freq
response error
The instrumentation circuitry used with these
transducer is very complex
62. Application of capacitive
transducers
Use to measure both linear and angular
displacement
Use to measure force and pressure. Here first
convert displacement causes change of
capacitance
Able to measure pressure directly in all those
cases in which permittivity of a medium changes
with pressure, such as in case of benzene
permittivity vary by 0.5%, in pressure range of 1 to
1000 times the atm pressure
Use to measure humidity. Since the permittivity of
gases varies with variation in humidity. Though the
variation in capacitance due to variation in
humidity is quite small but is detectable
63. Capacitor microphone

o/p changes w.r.to no of turns
Measure displacement of linear and angular
movement as shown
Here no of turns changes, inductance changes,
then o/p changes
67. Transducer working on principle of change in
self inductance with change in permeability
Inductive transducer on principle of variation of
permeability causing change in self inductance as
shown
Iron core surrounded by winding. Here
permeability changes, then L-changes
Iron move out of winding, permeability↓, then L↓
in coil. Source to measure displacement
68. Variable reluctance inductance
transducer
Use to measure linear displacement
Hence length of magnetic path varies with the
displacement and reluctance of magnetic circuit
changes causing in self inductance of the coil
69. Linear Variable Differential
Transformer (LVDT)
Construction
It is widely used inductive transducer to translate
linear motion into electrical signal
LVDT is differential transducer consist of one
primary (P) and two secondary (S1 & S2). Both
wound on non magnetic material
S1 & S2 have equal no of turns and identical placed
on either side of pri winding
Displacement to be measure is applied to arm
attached to the soft iron core
In order to overcome the problem of eddy current
losses in the core, nickel-iron alloy is used as core
material and is slotted longitudinally
71. Working
Primary winding voltage range as 5-25V and freq
as 50Hz-20kHz
Primary winding exited AC current source, so
produces AC mag field which induces AC voltages
Es1- o/p voltage of S1
Es2-o/p voltage of S2
Both S1 & S2 are in series opposing.
Differential o/p voltage = Eo=Es1-Es2
72.
73. Case (i): When the core is at its normal (NULL)
position
Core is normal null position
Both sec. have equal flux linkages (i.e) Es1=Es2
So Eo=Es1-Es2=0
Case (ii): The core is moved to the left of the NULL
position
Core moved left of NULL position (i.e) at A
Flux linkages more in S1 and less in S2
So Es1>Es2, Eo= Es1-Es2
Eo=+ve which is in phase wih o/p
Case (iii): The core is moved to the right of the null
position
Core move right of NULL position (i.e) at B
Flux linkages less in S1 and more in S2
74. Eo α (movement of core) (i.e) linear motion
Eo↓ or Eo↑ depends on direction of motion
o/p of one secondary increases and other
secondary decreases. So which use to measure
displacement
Variation of Eo w.r.to displacement of core as
shown. For small displacement only linear char.
Small changes
At ‘O’ position of core, Eo not equal to zero due to
have some residual magnetism (i.e) 1% of Emax
Residual voltage due to mag unbalance or
electrical unbalance
Due to harmonics & saturation of iron core
contribute residual voltage. Also due to stray mag
field.
75. Advantages of LVDT
Upto 5mm, it have linear displacement
High sensitivity, range as 10mV/mm – 40mV/mm
Give high o/p. No need of amplification
Use freq upto 20kHz, more reliable
Have low hysterisis, hence repeatability is
excellent under all condition
Rugged construction, vibration without any
adverse effect
Power consume < 1W, small weight
Stable and easy maintanance
76. Disadvantages of LVDT
Require large displacement of o/p
Sensitive with stray mag field
Performance affected by vibration
Receiving instrument select to operate AC signal
or a demodulator network must be used if a DC
o/p is required
The dynamic response is limited mechanically by
mass of the core and electrically by freq of applied
voltage. The freq of the carrier should be at least
10 times the highest freq component to be
measured
Performance is affected with temperature
77. Application of LVDT
LVDT use to measure
Displacement
Force
Weight
Pressure
Position
78. STRAIN GAUGES
Piezo resistive Effect
If a metal conductor is stretched or compressed, its
resistance changes on account of the fact that both length
and diameter of conductor change.
Also there is a change in the value of resistivity of the
conductor when it is strained and this property is called
piezo resistive effect.
Uses of strain gauges
Used for measurement of strain and associated stress in
experimental stress analysis.
Many detectors and transducers notably the load cells,
torque meters, pressure gauges, temperature sensors,
accelerometers and flow meters, employ strain gauges as
secondary transducers.
80. 1. Wire strain gauges
It is small size, min leakage, employ high temp
It has two types
Unbounded resistance wire strain gauge
Bonded resistance wire strain gauge
Unbounded resistance wire strain gauge
It consist of wire stretched between 2-point of insulating
medium (i.e) air
Dia=25µm
Wire have high tension. So that no sag & no vibration
Load applied, resistance changes, unbalances the bridges.
So V0 changes, V0 α strain, displacement ≈ 50µm
81.
82. Bonded resistance wire strain gauge
The schematic as shown
Dia of wire≈25µm
Loop as back and forth
The grid of fine wire is cemented on a carriers which
may be a thin sheet of paper, backelite or teflon
Wire converted on the top with thin material, so not
damaged mechanically
Spreading of wire permits uniform distribution of
stress
83. 2. Foil strain gauge
It is extension of resistance wire strain gauge
Metal & alloys use for foil. Nichrome, constantant
use for wire
It have high dissipation capacity. So use high temp
gauge. It have better bonding due to larger area
Advantage as fabricate to larger scale, any shape.
Etched foil gauge construction consist of first
bonding layer of strain sensitive material to a thin
sheet of paper of paper or bakelite
Etched foil strain gauge made thinner than
comparable wire units. More flexible. So it placed
remote & restricted places and curved placed.
84.
85. 3. Thin film strain gauges
This can be produced by depositing a thin layer of
metal alloy an elastic metal specimen by means of
vacuum deposition
This technique, relatively new and extensively
used to produces a strain gauge that is
molecularly bondes to the specimen under test
and so the drawback of epoxy adhesive bond are
eliminated
Thin technique is most widely used for transducer
application such as in disphragm type pressure
gauges.
86. 4. Semiconductor strain gauge

90. Ic flows downwards in semiconductor pellet which
placed in magnetic field perpendicular to pellet
surface, an VH created in pellet in direction
perpendicular in both Ic and magnetic field. This
process called as hall effect.
Electromagnetic force act on charged particle
according to F.L.H.R, the charged particle are
biasing to left side of semiconductor pellet.
The magnitude of emf VH, which is called the hall

Semiconductor device which are made use in
92. A constant current runs through a conductive Hall strip
inside the sensor.
The diagram shows a rotating magnet placed near the
Hall sensor.
The alternating field from this rotating magnet will
cause an alternating Hall voltage to be generated
across the Hall strip.
This alternating voltage waveform is fed into the digital
circuitry. This digital circuitry converts alternating
voltage waveform into square waveform i.e., digital
signal (ON or OFF) / + 5 V DC or 0 V DC).
Sensors are available with a verity of output voltages
and polarities. If the sensor is placed in the south
magnetic pole, the sensor is turned ON and remains
ON, after the south pole is removed.

Piezoelectric material is one which an electric
potential appears across certain surfaces of a
crystal surfaces of a crystal if the dimension of the
crystal are changed by the application of
mechanical force. This potential produced by
displacement of changes.
The effect is reversible also, varying potential
applied to proper axis of crystal, it will changes the
dimension of crystal thereby deform it. This
phenomenon is known as piezoelectric effect
Piezo is greek word meaning force or pressure.

ammonium, dihydrogen phosphate, quartz and
ceramics made with barium titanate, dipotassium ,
lithum sulphate
The piezoelectric effect can be made to respond to
mechanical deformation of material in many
different modes. These modes are
Thickness expansion
Transverse expansion
Thickness shear
Face shear
Mechanical deformation generates a charge and
this charge appears as voltage across electrodes
97. A tensile force produce a voltage of one polarity while a
compressive force produces a voltage of opposite
polarity
A crystal between a solid base and the force summing
member. An extremely applied force, entering the
transducer through its pressure, applies pressure to top
of crystal. This produces a voltage across the crystal
proportional to the magnitude of applied pressure.
Magnitude and polarity of induced surface charges
proportional to mag and direction of force
