GALVANOMETER

A galvanometer is an instrument used to detect and measure small electric currents in Electrical and Electronic circuits. It works on the principle that a current-carrying conductor in a magnetic field experiences a mechanical force, causing the conductor to move. This movement is proportional to the current and is indicated by the deflection of a needle or pointer.

The primary function of a galvanometer is to provide precise measurements of electrical current, and detect the direction of the current which is critical in various scientific and industrial applications. The working of the galvanometer is based on the principle of electromagnetic induction. By accurately indicating the magnitude of the current, galvanometers are essential tools for experiments, equipment calibration, and monitoring electrical systems.

Parts of a Galvanometer

The following are some of the major parts of a galvanometer:

Moving Coil – It is the part of a galvanometer that carries the electric current which has to be measured.
Permanent Magnet – This part generates the working magnetic field in the galvanometer required to produce the coil’s movement.
Pointer – It is part of a galvanometer that deflects on a scale to indicate the measured electric current.
Scale – This part is calibrated to show the magnitude and direction of the measured electric current.

Advantages of Galvanometer

The major benefits of galvanometer are listed below:

Galvanometer has high sensitivity.
The working of the galvanometer is less affected by the stray magnetic fields.
Galvanometer can measure both the magnitude as well as the direction of the electric current in the circuit.
Galvanometers are highly accurate and reliable.
Galvanometers have uniform scales.
Galvanometer can be used as an ammeter by connecting a resistance in parallel to its coil.
Galvanometer can be used as a voltmeter by connecting a resistance in a series of its coil.
