Milli-volts & Milli-amperes
of Weston Electrical R.P.M Counter.
The milli-volts for full scale deflection were found by connecting the instrument in parallel with inst. 98 on the 1.5 volt range, by very short leads, & applying a potentiometer tapping.
This gave 520 milli-volts (1.52 volts)
The milli amps were found by connecting in series with inst. 22596 and sending current from potentiometer giving, 13.5 milli-amperes.
The above readings are the averages of several.
