Vintage Weston Instruments Portable AC Ammeter Bakelite Case Phase C AE 702:
$45.00

Weston Instruments portable AC ammeter in a bakelite case, dial marked AMPERES A.C. PHASE C, shop asset tag AE 702.

Maker: Weston Instruments, Inc., Newark, New Jersey, U.S.A.
Dial: AMPERES A.C., with PHASE C printed below the scale
Front plate: model, type and converter fields, printed on the maker's plate
Asset tags: a red AE 702 plate and a barcode label, both from the shop that owned it
Form: hinged bakelite case with a moulded carrying lid, two large knurled brass terminals on top, a moulded adjuster on the side, and a large mirrored scale behind glass

A Weston portable is the instrument that sat on an electrical bench for most of the twentieth century: a mirrored scale, a moving-iron or moving-coil movement and terminals you screwed the leads onto. The PHASE C marking on the dial says it was one of a set of three, used to read the three phases of an aircraft AC system on a test rig.

Sold AS-IS and UNTESTED. This is a laboratory instrument, not an aircraft part: it is not for aircraft installation and has no airworthiness tag or 8130-3. I have not put current through it and it has no current calibration, so do not rely on the reading for anything that matters. Sold for bench use, collecting, study or display.
