Connecting Voltmeter, Ammeter and Wattmeter in a circuit



Connecting Voltmeter, Ammeter and Wattmeter in a circuit
Written  by Sunil Saharan


Voltmeter, Ammeter, Watt meter and Energy meter are four pillars of electrical energy and are most important devices used in electrical engineering field. You can't imagine any application in electrical engineering without voltage, current, energy and power measurement. Voltmeter, Ammeter, Watt meter and Energy meter connections and basics are discussed here.
If you are an electrical engineer than you must know how to connect various electrical instruments in a circuit, Specially measuring instruments. The most common instruments or measuring apparatus you must know about are Voltmeter, Ammeter, Energy meter and Watt meter.
Voltmeter : -                               

Voltmeter is a device that is used to measure voltage or potential difference across two given points. Essentially a voltmeter is nothing but a galvanometer with infinite resistance connected in series . This makes the resistance of an ideal voltmeter infinite .
Voltmeter is connected in parallel, this is shown below : -


As shown in image a voltmeter is connected in parallel or in shunt configuration, due to voltage division in series.
If we connect it in series high resistance of voltmeter will make the circuit insulating and no current will flow and the system will stop working.
Voltage Division in Series
If two resistances are connected in series the voltage given to the complete system is divided across resistances.
Let us consider two resistances with resistance R1 and R2, then total resistance of series configuration will be given by
R = R1 + R2
and Voltage across each resistance is give by
V1 = R1*V/R,
V2 = R2*V/R,
Here,
V1 is voltage across R1 and
V2 is voltage across R2.
The below Figure shows this more clearly.

Ammeter : - 
It Measure current ( general term ) or rate of flow of charge ( Technical meaning ) between two points on a conductor.
An Ammeter is connected in series because it has low resistance and current remains same in series so the amount of current flowing through load will be same as that of Ammeter and hence Ammeter will give the exact reading. Connection of an ammeter is shown below with circuit diagram : -

Watt Meter : -
 A watt meter Measures power consumed by an apparatus in a given time. Normally watt meter gives reading in watt or kilowatt.
A Watmeter have two coils one is current coil and other is voltage coil. The power is product of Voltage across the load and current flowing through the load i.e. P=V/*I
 Connection of watt meter is shown below : -

The Current coil is connected in series as current remains same in series (concept of Ammeter) and potential coil is connected in parallel as voltage remains same in parallel (concept of Voltmeter)
Try to know the various components in the circuit diagram. In this experiment you can see the 'Transformer', 'Wattmeter', 'Ammeter' and 'Voltmeter'.

Making a movie in dual audio or in Hindi


First of all the basic requirements for making a movie in dual audio or in Hindi

1. A HQ quality rip of that movie in English or Any other Language you want which is very easily available on net

2. A Hindi Audio track is provided by here to all of U.

3.Tools which are required for conversion and muxing.

Tools which are required are:-

1. TVC(Total Video Converter) a very useful tool you all must have for conversion and extracting English or Hindi audio tracks from any movie Hindi or English.
2. A Mp3 Splitter & Joiner for editing the audio tracks and I recommend you these to use Visual MP3 Splitter & Joiner

3. A mux which can add any no. of audio tracks in a video file and I recommend you these to use MKVTOOLNIX.
Conversion:-
1. Extract the English audio track from the HQ quality rip of any Language using TVC.OR MKVTOOLNIX

2. Open it in the Visual MP3 Splitter & Joiner and you can see a waveform like patterns as shown below:- 



3. Now also open the Hindi audio track of the movie which you download from here.

4. Now after opening both the audio left click on the small display exactly from where the waveform starts.This will give you the starting time of both the audio as shown below.   


5. Now calculate the difference between the starting point of both the audio which will be equal to delay for Hindi audio track.
Delay for Hindi audio track=[Starting time of HQ quality rip audio track of any Language Like English or Japanese] - [Starting time of Hindi audio track]

Note:-This will be only applicable if starting of both the movies are same.

6. Now you get the delay for Hindi audio track so start muxing process with this delay.

If its your good luck then there will be no problem further but if its your hard luck then after sometime say after 30,40 or 50 minutes the audio and video again gets out of synchronization.

7.Now what you have to do is point out from where the audio and video gets out of synchronization.

8.After pointing out you have to again check both audio tracks at that point in Visual MP3 Splitter & Joiner to check that whether there is an unaccepted delay in the Hindi audio track and how much it is more from HQ quality rip audio track.

Eg:- Suppose that audio and video gets out of synchronization after 30 minutes because any scene is cutted from the Hindi movie or by some other problem.

First download both parts of audio tracks that i give than combine them whith any converter than merge audio track in your movie with MKVTOOLNIX software.

IP Ratings (Ingress Protection)



IP Ratings (Ingress Protection)

A two-digit number established by the International Electro Technical Commission, is used to provide an Ingress Protection rating to a piece of electronic equipment or to an enclosure for electronic equipment.
The protection class after EN60529 is indicated by short symbols that consist of the two code letters IP and a code numeral for the amount of the protection.
Example: IP65 (NEMA 4)
The two digits represent different forms of environmental influence:
 • The first digit represents protection against ingress of solid objects.
 • The second digit represents protection against ingress of liquids.
The larger the value of each digit, the greater the protection. As an example, a product rated IP54 would be better protected against environmental factors than another similar product rated as IP42.
IP TABLE:

How to stay clear of office politics



How to stay clear of office politics


These two words make the corporate world dirty and murky – Office politics. This is the sad reality, and it exists in proportions across offices. This is no laughing matter. After all a dysfunctional office makes for unhappy employees, high attrition and low productivity. Even then, sometimes you get pulled into without your knowledge and at other times you create a scenario to save your misdoings. When things get out of hand, ask yourself does this really help? You will get the real answer.
“The key to stay clear of office politics is honest communication. Sometimes, people tend to lie or giving excuses when they are caught. Or they try and drag other people to clear their wrong. This only intensifies the situation. So, the best thing to do here is to accept your fault and as an adult give solutions to repair it. This will make your seniors trust you again,” says Sandeep Kaul, director, Whitelight Consulting.
Remember to err is to human. So, if you can accept your flaw and be honest about it, you have nothing to fear. However, don’t make the mistake of discussing office details or expressing your anger in public places like elevators or cafeterias or even indulge in long phone conversations over the phone in the washroom. You never know who is listening in. Though this might be innocence on your part, it could come and backfire if someone decides to use it to their advantage. There is a time and place to vent out your anger.
In such cases mostly the issue is personal. Thus, the key to avoid politics is to associate every problem with the issue and not with the person. “In most cases people tend to get personal. And within no time the issue takes the shape of ego. Thus, starts the pulling down game. So, the key here is to remember that no one really has anything against you,” points our Kaul.
So, if employees don’t use tools against each other and not make an issue or a problem a personal war, offices could be happier places. For instance, employees should realise that emails are used to ease the workflow and not as a charge sheet against a person. “My boss once used an email to pull me down in front of the management. She raised issues and involved everyone senior and junior person on the team. Later, the email backfired on her because the management looked at the issues and pointed out that the issue that was raised was actually the responsibility of my boss and not mine,” says a senior employee (who didn’t wished to be named) of a Mumbai-based IT firm. Thus, you never know how tools can turn against you.
In case you are pulled into the game, be honest, accept your responsibility and get your seniors on your side. “It’s always best to keep your manager in the loop or to have supporter from the senior management. This will only happen if the manager to gain your manager’s trust by being honest,” says Kaul.
Thus, the key to steer out of office politics is to be honest and to work outside of your ego.

What are the main differences between Jewish and Christian religions?



Judaism believes that only you can be responsible for your sins. Nobody else can take them on or ask forgiveness on your behalf. Yes, we used to do animal sacrifices SOMETIMES, but most sacrifices were a mix of flour and oil. Still, sacrifice alone cannot atone for sin (and human sacrifice is ABHORRED by G-d). To atone for sins, a person must do teshuva, which includes: 1. recognizing the sin [knowing you did wrong] and feeling remorse for it 2. asking forgiveness of the wrong by the person you wronged (example: if you broke a Jewish law, you apologize to G-d, but if you broke your neighbor's favorite flowerpot, you must apologize to your neighbor for no one else can forgive you) 3. try to right the wrong you did--if you broke the flowerpot, either buy a new one or try to repair the old one sufficiently 4. actively resolve and try not to commit the wrong again--if you broke a law, create a reminder for yourself so that next time the opportunity comes up, you will remember.

Christianity has a close relationship with Judaism, both historically and theologically. Jesus, the twelve disciples, the author of most of the New Testament, and the members of the earliest Christian churches were all Jews. Jesus' family followed Jewish customs and Jesus frequently quoted the Hebrew Bible. Jesus' followers believed him to be the messiah, a Jewish figure predicted in the Jewish Bible.


Today, theological disagreements between Christians and Jews remain, but efforts are being made towards greater understanding and respect between the two great faiths. The following chart compares the origins, beliefs and practices of Christianity and Judaism.
