Moving iron instruments are the most common type of ammeter and voltmeter used for laboratory or switchboard applications involving power frequencies. They can measure current and voltage with accuracy needed for most engineering works, and are cheaper than other types of AC instruments providing the same level of accuracy. Moving iron instruments are classified as either attraction type or repulsion type based on how the moving iron component moves within the instrument's coil in response to the magnetic field produced by the measured current or voltage.
Ohm's Law V = I x R (Volts = Current x Resistance). The Ohm (Ω) is a unit of electrical resistance equal to that of a conductor in which a current of one ampere is produced by a potential of one volt across its terminals. 1)Measurement of Low resistance: 1) Ammeter Voltmeter method: This is very popular method for measurement of medium resistances since ...
Permanent Magnet Moving Coil Instrument. The permanent magnet moving coil instrument or PMMC type instrument uses two permanent magnets in order to create stationary magnetic field.
The transducer whose resistance varies because of the environmental effects such type of transducer is known as the resistive transducer. The change in resistance is measured by the ac or dc measuring devices. The resistive transducer is used for measuring the physical quantities like temperature, displacement, vibration etc.
The measurement of the physical quantity is quite difficult. The resistive transducer converts the physical quantities into variable resistance which is easily measured by the meters. The process of variation in resistance is widely used in the industrial applications.
The resistive transducer can work both as the primary as well as the secondary transducer. The primary transducer changes the physical quantities into a mechanical signal, and secondary transducer directly transforms it into an electrical signal.
Working Principle of Resistive Transducer
The resistive transducer element works on the principle that the resistance of the element is directly proportional to the length of the conductor and inversely proportional to the area of the conductor. equation-1
Where R – resistance in ohms.
A – cross-section area of the conductor in meter square.
L – Length of the conductor in meter square.
ρ – the resistivity of the conductor in materials in ohm meter.
The resistive transducer is designed by considering the variation of the length, area and resistivity of the metal.
Applications of Resistive Transducer
The following are the applications of the resistive transducer.
Potentiometer – The translation and rotatory potentiometer are the examples of the resistive transducers. The resistance of their conductor varies with the variation in their lengths which is used for the measurement of displacement.
Strain gauges – The resistance of their semiconductor material changes when the strain occurs on it. This property of metals is used for the measurement of the pressure, force-displacement etc.
Resistance Thermometer – The resistance of the metals changes because of changes in temperature. This property of conductor is used for measuring the temperature.
Thermistor – It works on the principle that the temperature coefficient of the thermistor material varies with the temperature. The thermistor has the negative temperature coefficient. The Negative temperature coefficient means the temperature is inversely proportional to resistance.

A synchronous motor is electrically identical with an alternator or AC generator.
A given alternator ( or synchronous machine) can be used as a motor, when driven electrically.
Some characteristic features of a synchronous motor are as follows:
1. It runs either at synchronous speed or not at all i.e. while running it maintains a constant speed. The only way to change its speed is to vary the supply frequency (because NS=120f/P).
2. It is not inherently self-starting. It has to be run up to synchronous (or near synchronous) speed by some means, before it can be synchronized to the supply.
3. It is capable of being operated under a wide range of power factors, both lagging and leading. Hence, it can be used for power correction purposes, in addition to supplying torque to drive loads.

0x01 - Newton's Third Law: Static vs. Dynamic AbusersOWASP Beja
f you offer a service on the web, odds are that someone will abuse it. Be it an API, a SaaS, a PaaS, or even a static website, someone somewhere will try to figure out a way to use it to their own needs. In this talk we'll compare measures that are effective against static attackers and how to battle a dynamic attacker who adapts to your counter-measures.

2. Moving iron (M.I) Instrument
• The most common ammeter and voltmeter for
laboratory or switch board use at power
frequency are the moving iron instruments.
• The instrument can be constructed to
measure current and voltage to an accuracy
needed in most engineering works and still be
cheaper as compared any other type of a.c.
Instrument of same accuracy
3. Classification of moving iron
instrument
• Moving iron instrument are of two types
Attraction type
Repulsion type
4. Attraction type
• The construction of an attraction type moving
iron instrument. The coil is flat and has a
narrow slot like opening
• The moving iron disc or a sector essentially
mounted. When the current flows through the
coil a magnetic field is produced and the
moving iron moves from the weaker field
outside the coil to the stronger field inside it
or in other words the moving iron is attracted
5. • The controlling torque is provided by spring
but gravity control can be used for panel type
of instrument which are vertically mounted
• Damping is provided by air friction with help
of light aluminum piston
6. Repulsion type
• In the repulsion type there are two vanes
inside the coil one fixed other is movable
Radial vane type:
In this type the vanes are radial strips
of iron. The strips are placed within the coil
The fixed vanes is attached to the coil
and the movable one to the spindle of the
instrument.
7. Co-axial vanes type
in this type instrument the fixed and
moving vanes are sections of co-axial cylinder
as shown
8. • The controlling torque is provided by spring.
• The damping torque is provide by air friction.
• The operating magnetic field in moving iron
instrument is very weak and therefore eddy
current damping is not used in them as
introduction of a permanent magnet required
for eddy current damping would distort the
operating magnetic field.
