In a De Sauty's bridge used for comparison of two capacitors, an exact balance can only be achieved when both capacitors have negligible or identical dielectric losses. Which of the following statements best explains why this condition is essential?
- 1The balance point is completely independent of the capacitance ratio in the arms.
- 2The bridge remains balanced for any frequency of operation regardless of loss angle.
- 3The bridge assumes both capacitors are ideal and purely capacitive, with no resistive components.✓
- 4The bridge is used to measure inductance by comparison with a known resistor.
Correct answer
The bridge assumes both capacitors are ideal and purely capacitive, with no resistive components.
