Telecommunication; Electric engineering; Communication; Electronics; Science; Technology. 24 BELL SYSTEM TECHNICAL JOURNAL greater precautions are necessary for accurate results. There must be no initial direct capacity in arm CS), or a correction will be re- quired. Possibly variable capacity ratio arms would be preferable to resistances. Null-Impedance Bridge Method for Direct Capacity, Fig. 4 Assuming that the electron tube supplies the means of obtaining an invariable true negative resistance, Fig. 4 shows a method which determines any individual direct capacity from a single bridge setting. The bridge arms are replaced by a Y network made up of two resist-. Fig. 4—Null-Impedance Bridge Method for Direct Capacity ances R, R and a negative resistance — R/2; the Y has then a null- impedance between corner ^ and corners ^, (? connected together^. The three terminals 1, 2, 3 of the network to be measured are con- nected to corners 2), 6^, 6B and a balance obtained by adjusting the variable standard condenser C. Then di = C regardless of the direct capacities associated with Cn and C\ since these capacities either are short-circuited between corners SB, (2 ox ^,(? or are between corners 58, S) and thus outside of the bridge. Correct adjustment of the negative resistance may be checked by observing whether there is silence in telephone Ti after the balance has been obtained. Assuming invariable negative resistance, this test need be made only when the bridge is set up, or there is a change in frequency. The bridge may be given any ratio Z1/Z2 by employing a Y made up of impedances Zi, Z2, and — Zi Z2/(Zi + Z2).
