The bridge used to measure the dielectric loss of an insulator is

Right Answer is:

Schering bridge

SOLUTION

Schering Bridge

The Schering bridge is used for the measurement of the properties of insulators, capacitor bushings insulating oil, Dielectric losses, and other insulating material.

The loss factor is given as

R1 = R3C4/C2

Dissipation factor/Dielectric loss

C1 = C2R4/R3

It is suitable for small capacitances and is usually supplied from a high frequency or a high voltage source.

Note:-

The Anderson’s bridge gives an accurate measurement of the self-inductance of the circuit.

Wien’s bridge is used for the precision measurement of capacitance in terms of resistance and frequency. It is also used to measure audio frequencies.
