Conversion of Galvanometer into Ammeter Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India

Product Code : SCL-LM-14585

Indian Lab Suppliers supplies the Conversion of Galvanometer into Ammeter (Product ID: 14585) as part of its lab meters range. This apparatus shows how a shunt resistor turns a sensitive galvanometer into an ammeter.

Quick Answer

A moving-coil galvanometer, typically 30–50 µA full scale, is mounted with a low-value precision shunt on a wooden or ABS base with brass terminals. The shunt carries most of the current, so the galvanometer reads only a fixed fraction; the shunt value is S = I_gG/(I − I_g), where G is the galvanometer resistance and I the new full-scale current. The scale is 0–30 or 50–0–50 depending on the model. Please confirm the galvanometer sensitivity and the converted range at quotation.
