TENSIONMETER

NON-REGULATED SYSTEM

~ Used where length is short and no expansion or contraction

is expected

~ Tension regulator is unnecessary. To check the tension, a

tensionmeter is used

REGULATED SYSTEM ~ The cable tension is adjusted on both sides of the circuit by

means of turnbuckles until the correct reading is obtained

on the regulator scale ~ Scale reading depends on the ambient temperature ~ A tensionmeter is often used to check the tension regulator

accuracy
