From fig.(1)
R = Rm
Ideally R = Rm only when Ra = 0
From fig.(2)
R=
Kelvin Bridge
Ry = represents resistance of
connecting lead from R3 to Rx.

Substituting from eq.(1)
Rx + = +
Rx =
The problems with the above method are : the method is not practical
difficult to find correct galvanometer null point
Construction
Consist of 2 ratio arms
Connected resistances are
P, Q, p,q,r,S,R.
r is the resistance of slide
wire
R is the unknown
resistance
Rg is regulating resistance
Galvanometer (G) is
connected between point
F and H.
Working
Balance condition I = 0.
At
Hence voltage across P = voltage across R + voltage across p
g
VP = VR + Vp
I1P = IR + I2p
(3)
Similarly voltage across Q = Voltage across S + voltage across q
VQ = VS + Vq
I1Q = IS + I2q
.(4)
Voltage across r = voltage across (p+q)
Vr = V(p+q)
So,
I2 =
So from eq.(1)
I1P = IR +
I1Q = IS +

Divide

For accurate measurement of R two readings are taken by reversing the
direction of current, the average value of these two values is taken as
magnitude of unknown resistance
