Electrical Measurements in the Laboratory Practice (1st ed. 2016)

This book covers thebasic theory of electrical circuits, describes analog and digitalinstrumentation, and applies modern methods to evaluate uncertainties in electricalmeasurements.

It is comprehensive in scope and is designed specifically to meetthe needs of students in physics and electrical engineering who are attendinglaboratory classes in electrical measurements.

The topics addressed inindividual chapters include the analysis of continuous current circuits;sources of measurement uncertainty and their combined effect; direct currentmeasurements; analysis of alternating current circuits; special circuitsincluding resonant circuits, frequency filters and  impedance matchingnetworks; alternating current measurements; analog and digital oscilloscopes;non-sinusoidal waveforms and circuit excitation by pulses; distributedparameter components and transmission lines.

Each chapter is equipped with anumber of problems. A special appendixdescribes a series of nine experiments, in each case providing a plan of actionfor students and guidance for tutors to assist in the preparation andillustration of the experiment.
