Galvanometer

Galvanometer

Product Code : SCL-EE-12361

Quick Answer: The Galvanometer is a sensitive laboratory instrument that detects small electric currents and shows their direction by left or right pointer deflection.

Last updated: October 2026

Key Features

  • Detects small currents in physics circuits
  • Left or right deflection shows current direction
  • Used for null-point work in Wheatstone bridge and potentiometer experiments
  • Supports induction experiments and meter conversion with a suitable shunt or multiplier, where the rating permits

About This Product

The pointer is checked at zero, the galvanometer is connected into the circuit as the diagram shows, and a low-current source with suitable resistance is used to protect the movement. Students watch the size and direction of the deflection and, where required, reverse the current to compare. It is never connected directly across a high-current source.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1. Can it be used as an ammeter?
It can be converted into an ammeter or voltmeter with a suitable shunt or multiplier, but only when the supplied meter rating permits it.
