Mounting of Spare Meters
THE amateur constructor usually keeps one or more meters on his bench free fiom regular service, so that he can have them handy for general testing. Fer convenience in reading, and for the protection of these delicate instruments, they should be mounted, and the following is a good method:-The most convenient position for a meter is at an angle of 45 degrees. Hach meter is mounted on an ebonite panel just large enough to accommodate it, and, if the meter ter-. minals are behind, the required number of terminals can be mounted on top of the panel. The panel is screwed to a base-board with its front edge bevelled off at an angle of 45 degrees. ‘The average moving-coil meter is practically unaffected by the angle, but a few readings should be taken’ at various angles before mounting, to see if there are any ‘discrepancies.
