Class of accuracy in electrical measurements and voltmeters have a high but not infinite internal impedance. Thus the measured parameters are somewhat altered during the measurements. Let E be the EMF of the source R be the resistance of the load and r be the resistance of the ammeter. The current through the load is I When the ammeter is connected in series with the load the current I is The difference introduced by the measuring device is then, The ratio of the difference to the actual value is Class of accuracy in electrical measurements In electrical engineering class of accuracy is a figure which represents
Electrical telegraph Electrical telegraph An electrical telegraph is a telegraph that uses electrical signals, usually conveyed via dedicated telecommunication circuit or radio. The electrical telegraph, or more commonly just telegraph, superseded optical semaphore telegraph systems, thus becoming the first form of electrical telecommunications. In a matter of decades after their creation in the 1830s, electrical telegraph networks permitted people and commerce to transmit messages across both continents and oceans almost instantly, with widespread social and economic impacts. From early studies of electricity, electrical phenomena were known to travel with great speed, and many experimenters worked on the application of electricity to communications
