Assignment Questions Unit 2

Q.1 A PMMC instrument has a coil of dimensions 15 mm × 12 mm. The flux density in the
air gap is 1.8 × 10 -3 wb/m2 and the spring constant is 0.14 × 10 -6 N-m/rad. Determine the
number of turns required to produce an angular deflection of 90° when a current of 5 mA
is flowing through the coil?

[Link] on how the range of instruments can be extended in PMMC instruments.

Q3. Derive the torque equation of a PMMC and write main advantages and disadvantages
of PMMC instruments?

Q4 Derive the torque equation of a Moving iron instruments and write main advantages
and disadvantages of PMMC instruments?

Q5A PMMC instrument has a coil resistance of 100Ω and gives a full scale deflection (FSD)
for a current of 500 μA . Determine the value of shunt resistance required if the instrument
is to be employed as an ammeter with a FSD of 5A.

Q6. Explain how reading of Moving iron instrument depends on frequency variation. What
step should be taken in order to make the reading frequency independent?
Q7.

[Link] inductance of a moving-iron ammeter with a full-scale deflection of 90° at 1.5 A is


given by L = (200 + 40θ - 4θ 2 - θ 3 ) μH where θ is the deflection in radian from the zero
position. Estimate the angular deflection of the pointer for a current of 1 A.
