Abstract :
Following a brief discussion of impedance-measuring methods, the theory underlying the operation of this instrument is presented with the development of useful equations. The merit of the scheme lies in the fact that measurements can be made while the impedance is in operation without disturbing the current distribution of the network. Practical arrangements of the parts are then considered along with the necessary adjustments. The paper ends with some results and conclusions.
