Converting Resistance Measurements
The WRM can convert the resistance reading of the device under test at its present
temperature to the equivalent resistance value at a different temperature. The conversion is
accomplished by the following formula:
𝑹𝒔 =
𝑹𝒎 (𝑻𝒔 + 𝑻𝒌)
(𝑻𝒎 + 𝑻𝒌)
Where:
Rs
is the resistance at desired temperature
Rm
is the measured resistance
Ts
is the desired reference temperature
Tm
is the temperature at which the resistance was measured
Tk
is the winding material constant
Tk
= 234.5 for copper
Tk
= 240.0 for aluminum
