What is the use of the meter bridge experiment?

Use of meter bridge experiment:

The meter bridge experiment is used to test the laws of resistance and figure out unknown resistances.

  • Meter Bridge wire is made of copper-nickel alloy (constantan), alloy manganin, and chromium, nickel, and iron alloys (nichrome) as they are resistant to corrosion.
  • They have cold temperatures and a high melting point of around 1400 degrees Celsius.
  • A meter bridge is an electrical device that is used to calculate the resistance of a conductor.

It can also be used to determine the series and parallel equivalent of resistances.
