PHYWE P2410200 Wheatstone bridge

Principle : 

The Wheatstone bridge circuit is used to determine unknown resistances. The total resistance of resistors connected in parallel and in series is measured.

Benefits : 

Highly precise and reproducible measurements possible

Many different measurement variations possible

Also suitable for measurement of low resistances

Tasks: 

Determination of unknown resistances.

Determination of the total resistance of resistors in series and of resistors in parallel.
