The Standard Electrical Dictionary
Galvanometer, Volt- and Ampere-meter.
A galvanometer of Sir William Thomson's invention embodying the tangent principle, and having its sensibility adjustable by moving the magnetic needle horizontally along a scale (the "meter") towards or away from the coil. A curved magnet is used to adjust the control. The leads are twisted to prevent induction. The instrument is made with a high resistance coil for voltage determinations, and with a low resistance coil for amperage determinations. At one end of a long base board a vertical coil with its plane at right angles to the axis of the board is mounted. A scale (the "meter" of the name) runs down the centre of the board. A groove also runs down the centre. The magnetic needle is contained in a quadrant-shaped glass-covered box which slides up and down the groove. A number of short parallel needles mounted together, with an aluminum pointer are used.
