Abstract

519,693. Resistance measurements. EVERSHED & VIGNOLES, Ltd., and WRIGHT, R. T. Sept. 24, 1938, No. 27931. [Class 37] Apparatus for the measurement of high resistances includes an instrument for measuring the current flowing in the resistance and a device possessing unilateral conductivity connected in the current circuit. A D.C. generator a driven by hand or sychronous motor has a smoothing condenser b across its terminals and is connected through the deflection coil d of a crossed-coil instrument c, d to the resistance R to be measured, which may be the insulation resistance of a cable having considerable capacitance g. A half -wave rectifier h of the oxide-film type is connected in the circuit and is so directed as to oppose only small resistance to the charging current to the resistance R, but a high resistance to the discharge current. The cable is thus charged in a short time, while fluctuations in the instrument reading due to slight voltage fluctuations are minimized. A switch s enables the cable to be discharged through a resistance r after testing.
