Excerpt from Absolute Measurement of Capacitance by Maxwell's Method
It is customary to ground the bridge at F (as Shown in fig. This msures that all capacitances to earth shall be definite. However, experiments in this laboratory with large condensers Show that, if all parts of the bridge are well insulated, the measured value of the capacitance is not affected by the grounding of the bridge.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents the results of an exhaustive study of the methods available for making an absolute measurement of capacitance. The author describes the essential theory of the Maxwell bridge method, analyzing the errors introduced by failure to realize the assumptions on which the theory is based. The book goes on to describe in detail the apparatus and methods which the author developed for making such measurements with the highest possible accuracy, analyzing the observational errors which cannot be entirely eliminated. The result is a treatment of absolute capacitance measurement of a depth not available elsewhere. The book will be useful to anyone interested in the accurate measurement of electrical quantities. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
