Source sentences:
text: A galvanometer is converted into an ammeter by connecting it in parallel with a low resistance called shunt resistance.
text: This resistance is called shunt resistance (Rs).
text: For measuring large currents (to convert into ammeter), a small resistance called shunt resistance (S) is connected in parallel across the galvanometer.
text: Conversion of Galvanometer into Ammeter: Conversion of Galvanometer into Ammeter A galvanometer can be converted into an ammeter (device measuring the current flowing through a conductor) by connecting a low resistance (called shunt resistance) in parallel to the galvanometer as shown in the figure.
text: Ammeter is an instrument used to measure the direct electric current intensity and it is a sensitive galvanometer connected in parallel to a very low resistance called shunt resistance (R s ), or it is a device which through calibrated scale is used to measure directly the electric current.
text: , It consists of a galvanometer, its coil (R g ) is connected in parallel to a very small resistance called shunt resistance (R s ) to increase the measuring range.
