A mutual inductance compensator with varying primary current

  • Published:
Applied Scientific Research, Section B

Summary

An ac mutual-inductance compensator is described in which compensation of the secondary voltage is achieved by calibrated variation of the primary current in a standard mutual inductor of a fixed value. A resistive current-dividing network is used containing a commercial precision potentiometer. The ac frequency range employed can easily be extended to 10 kHz without seriously affecting the accuracy of the measurements.
