TUTORIAL MAXWELL'S BRIDGE
In Maxwell’s capacitance bridge for calculating unknown inductance, the various values at balance are, R1 = 300 Ω, R2 = 700 Ω, R3 = 1500 Ω, C1 = 0.8 μF. Calculate R1, L1 and Q factor, if the frequency is 1100 Hz.
Answer: R1= 140 Ω
L1 = R2 R3 C4
= 300 × 700 × 0.8 × 10-6 = 0.168 H
Q = 8.29.
