The Standard Electrical Dictionary

  1. Coil, Resistance

    A coil constructed for the purpose of offering a certain resistance to a steady current. This resistance may be for the purpose of carrying out quantitative tests, as in Wheatstone bridge work (see Wheatstone's Bridge), or simply to reduce the intensity of a current. For the first class of work the coils are wound so as to prevent the creation of a magnetic field. This is effected by first doubling the wire without breaking it, and then starting at the bend the doubled wire, which is insulated, is wound on a bobbin or otherwise until a proper resistance is shown by actual measurement. The coils are generally contained or set in closed boxes with ebonite tops. Blocks of brass are placed on the top, and one end from one coil and one end from the next connect with the same block. By inserting a plug, P, so as to connect any two blocks, which have grooves reamed out for the purpose, the coil beneath will be short circuited. German silver, platinoid or other alloy, q. v., is generally the material of the wire. A great object is to have a wire whose resistance will be unaffected by heat.
