Question

Anderson bridge is used for _________

(a) the measurement of self-inductance

(b) the measurement of resistance

(c) the measurement of capacitance

(d) the measurement of impedance

I have been asked this question during a job interview.

I'd like to ask this question from Anderson Bridge, Advantages & Disadvantages of Anderson Bridge topic in section Measurement of Inductance and Capacitance of Electrical Measurements

Answer 1

The correct choice is (a) the measurement of self-inductance

Explanation: The Anderson bridge is one of the important bridges used for the measurement of self-inductances in terms of standard capacitance value. Resistance is usually measured by making use of a Wheatstone’s bridge or Kelvin’s double bridge.
