Chapter 42, Problem 1RQ
What are the three main electrical test instruments used in troubleshooting?
Expert Solution & Answer
To determine
Three main electrical test instruments used in trouble shooting.
Explanation of Solution
An industrial electrician's main job is to troubleshoot or restore a control circuit when it fails. First, it is necessary to determine which component is at fault in order to repair or remove a faulty component. Three main instruments used to troubleshoot a circuit are the voltmeter, ohmmeter, and ammeter. They can measure several different electrical quantities, so this meters are called multimeters.
Thus Voltmeter, Ohmmeter, Ammeter are the main electrical test instruments used in trouble shooting.

This problem studies the response of two single degree of freedom bridge systems shown in Figure 1 under three loading cases. The problem has two parts. Part A and Part B use the same loading cases but the system is modified. Assume the following three loading cases in both Part A and Part B: (a) Harmonic wind load acting on the bridge deck pw(t) = powsin(ωwt) with amplitude pow and forcing circular frequency ωw. (b) Harmonic displacement base excitation acting at the base of the bridge pier ug(t) = ugosin(ωgt) with amplitude ugo and displacement circular frequency ωg. (c) Rectangular pulse load acting on the bridge deck with amplitude pop and pulse duration td.
Part A The system includes part of a bridge deck and a bridge pier shown in Figure 1(a). For each loading case find the symbolic expression of the peak shear force in the bridge pier assuming the following: • The bridge deck is rigid and it has a mass m. • The bridge deck is rigidly connected with the bridge pier (i.e.,…
