An electrodynamometer-type wattmeter has a current coil with a resistance of 0.1 Q and a pressure coil with resistance of 6.5 kQ. Calculate the percentage errors while the meter is connected as (i) current coil to the load side, and (ii) pressure coil to the load side. The load is specified as (a) 12 A at 250 V with unity power factor, and (b) 12 A at 25 V with 0.4 lagging power factor. CC V PC JOAD
