In a PMMC instrument
M = Multiplying factor = (Present FSD) / (Previous FSD)
Where,
Rsh = Shunt resistance
Rm = Meter resistance
Vm = Potential difference across meter
Im = Meter current
Calculation:
Given-
Rm = R Ω
Let the previous FSD current of PMMC is I, then present FSD current of PMMC is 5I
∴
Rsh = 0.25 R Ω
