AC measurement using PMMC
PMCC with AC
• Pointer will change its direction after every
half cycle
• It will only happen when the frequency is less
than 0.1Hz
• At 60Hz, the inertia of movement will prevent
the pointer to follow the changing current
• So it will remain at zero
Full Wave Rectifier Voltmeter
Calculate Rs for desired Range
• Design Voltage is given in rms
• Diode voltage drop is
subtracted from peak voltage
• PMMC deflection is
proportional to average current
