Excerpt from A Study of the Inductance of Four-Terminal Resistance Standards When the shunts R - ls and RX are not of equal resistance the second balance may be obtained in either of two ways. First, by simply increasing R2, and, second, by changing the primary connections of the transformer from parallel to series. By making both these changes, shunts of very different resistance can be directly com pared. The assumption made in the second method, 'that the phase angle of a well-designed transformer is a function of the secondary circuit conditions only, has been repeatedly justified by measurements at the Bureau of Standards. As a further check, shunts E and H having and ohm, respectively, were compared by the two methods. The results given in Table 1 show an excellent agreement. Similar measurements at 700 cycles also agreed, showing that up to that frequency the electrostatic capacity between the windings. Does not affect the accuracy of the method. It is to be noted that by changing connections both shunts are kept at approximately their full current capacity and thus there is no loss of sensitivity if these capacities are different.
