The importance of measuring instruments and transducers is well known in the various engineering fields. The book provides comprehensive coverage of various electrical and electronic measuring instruments, transducers, data acquisition system, storage and display devices . The book starts with explaining the theory of measurement including characteristics of instruments, classification, standards, statistical analysis and limiting errors. Then the book explains the various electrical and electronic instruments such as PMMC, moving iron, electrodynamometer type, energy meter, wattmeter, digital voltmeters and multimeters. It also includes the discussion of various magnetic measurements, instrument transformers, power factor meters, frequency meters, phase meters and synchros. The book further explains d.c. and a.c. potentiometers and their applications. The book teaches various d.c. and a.c. bridges along with necessary derivations and phasor diagrams. The book incorporates the various storage and display devices such as, recorders. plotters, printers, oscilloscopes, LED, LCDs and dot matrix displays. The chapter on transducers is dedicated to the detailed discussion of various types of transducers such as resistive, capacitive, strain gauges, RTD, thermistors, inductive, LVDT, thermocouples, piezoelectric, photoelectric and digital transducers. It also adds the discussion of optical fiber sensors. The book also includes good coverage of data acquisition system, data loggers, DACs and ADCs. Each chapter starts with the background of the topic. Then it gives the conceptual knowledge about the topic dividing it in various sections and subsections. Each chapter provides the detailed explanation of the topic, practical examples and variety of solved problems. The book explains the philosophy of the subject which makes the understanding of the concepts very clear and makes the subject more interesting.

The importance of measurements is well known in the field of Engineering. This book has been designed as a basic text for the undergraduate students of Electrical Engineering. This book meets the requirements of the syllabus of JNTU and other Universities

This treatise on the subject Electrical Measurements and Measuring Instruments contains comprehensive treament of the subject matter in simple,lucid and direct language.I covers the syllabi of the various Indian Universities in this subject exhausitively.

A comprehensive work which examines modern instrumentation for testing and measurement. The author groups together common families of electronic instruments for ease of reference, provides discussion of VLSIs and ASICs, and describes the design trends of future instrument groups.

The field of electrical measurement continues to grow, with new techniques developed each year. From the basic thermocouple to cutting-edge virtual instrumentation, it is also becoming an increasingly "digital" endeavor. Books that attempt to capture the state-of-the-art in electrical measurement are quickly outdated. Recognizing the need for a tex

The inclusion of an electrical measurement course in the undergraduate curriculum of electrical engineering is important in forming the technical and scientific knowledge of future electrical engineers. This book explains the basic measurement techniques, instruments, and methods used in everyday practice. It covers in detail both analogue and digital instruments, measurements errors and uncertainty, instrument transformers, bridges, amplifiers, oscilloscopes, data acquisition, sensors, instrument controls and measurement systems. The reader will learn how to apply the most appropriate measurement method and instrument for a particular application, and how to assemble the measurement system from physical quantity to the digital data in a computer. The book is primarily intended to cover all necessary topics of instrumentation and measurement for students of electrical engineering, but can also serve as a reference for engineers and practitioners to expand or refresh their knowledge in this field.
