Abstract: 342,394. Current pressure, and power meters; phase-difference measurements. GOTTFRIED, R., Jaworzno, Poland. Nov. 8, 1929, No. 34206. [Class 37.] A single instrument of the electro-dynamometer type is so connected to a transformer and a switch that it may be employed to measure power, current, or voltage. The low-tension winding 12, 13 of a transformer is connected in one of the mains 10, the high-tension winding 14, 15 being connected to the centre contacts of three-way switches 17, 19 and also to one end of the current coil 21 of a wattmeter, the other end of which is connected to the switch arm 19. The voltage coil 22 is connected between the arms 17, 18. The switch arms 17,18,19 are mechanically coupled, the connections being so arranged that in the middle position shown the current coil 21 of the wattmeter is connected across the transformer secondary 14, 15 and the voltage coil 22 is connected in series with resistances 26, 27, 28 of low temperature coefficient, across the mains 9, 10. The instrument then measures power. With the switch in the upper position the coils 21, 22 are connected in series with the secondary winding 14, 15 and therefore measure current. With the switch in the lower position the coils 21, 22 are connected in series with resistances 27, 28 across the mains, the secondary winding 14, 15 being short-circuited at contacts 23. The instrument then reads pressure. The entire instrument mav be enclosed in a case, or the wattmeter and switch and optionally a reversing switch for one wattmeter coil may be arranged in one case, the transformer and resistances being in a second case. By the addition of a second transformer and a modification of the switch the power on an unequally loaded three-phase circuit may be measured. In this form the instrument is also suitable as a phase indicator. Instead of the coils 21, 22 being connected in series for measuring current and pressure, they may be connected in parallel. Two scales are provided, one divided uniformly for measuring power, and one divided according to a square law for measuring current and voltage.

Class 37. Apparatus for detecting non- linearity distortion in circuit elements required to have a substantially linear characteristic comprises a pure sinusoidal potential source and distortion-free amplifiers and bandpass filters. The invention may be applied to testing condensers and it is stated that if a pure sinusoidal current with a frequency f<SP>1</SP> is applied to a condenser with a contact fault a third harmonic 3f<SP>1</SP> arises. In the Figure, 10 kc/s. (f<SP>1</SP>) oscillator A delivers through amplifier B and low-pass filter C a pure sine wave voltage V<SP>1</SP> to test component K and any third harmonic voltage (3f<SP>1</SP>) due to distortion caused by bad contacts in test component K is divided between the apparatus A, B, C impedance and the component K impedance at frequency 3f<SP>1</SP> (30 kc/s.). The 30 kc/s. voltage across the component K is applied via distortion-free bandpass filters E and G and amplifiers F and H to valve voltmeter I. A condenser or coil may be series connected with component K at 1, 2 if a high (resonance) voltage V<SP>1</SP> is required across test component K. A second valve voltmeter D measures V<SP>1</SP> at the fundamental frequency of 10 kc/s. The filter C is so designed that the loading on amplifier B is equal to the impedance of test component K. It is also stated that the apparatus has application in testing iron-cored coils and deposited carbon resistors.
