Hi guys, finally I had some time to make the measurements I promised before going to vacation.
So I used a 0.25 Ohm non-inductive resistor (half of a shunt I borrowed from Cd_Sharp).
Just a note: the effect of introducing in circuit the resistor and the oscilloscope is that I need to find another optimal frequency for the device so for each measurement you have also a photo of the frequency on the signal generator screen; also for each measurement you have a schema showing how oscilloscope's probes are connected.
In the images below the blue channel is voltage and the yellow channel is current (the channel is put in parallel on the current-sensing resistor).
First I've made measurements on input:
Then I've made measurements on output:
According to some previous discussions related to measurements made before where we saw current going in both directions through the resistor connected on input the conclusion was that ZPM is "seeing" the DC source as a load and it's actually sending power back to it so I was thinking it's a good idea to also make measurement of the current sent back by ZPM to the DC source; notice in the measurement schema below that the position of the yellow channel probe is inverted:
Also you remember that before going to vacation I posted here a photo about a anomaly where the device seems to power preferentially the light-bulbs put on its output ? Like in this image where a 12V/5W light-bulb placed directly on device's coils is illuminating stronger than another 12V/5W light-bulb connected after a 12V/55W light-bulb ? This photo:
I wanted to see what's going on on the output so I connected one channel from the oscilloscope directly on device's coils and another channel on light-bulb's pins as following:
Blue channel is connected directly on ZPM's coils while the yellow channel is connected on the light-bulb's pins.
So I didn't measured the current but I measured the voltage only. As you can see (marked with red rectangle on the image of the oscilloscope's screen) on the same wire there is a Vpp difference of 36 volts between its beginning and its end. I didn't knew it's possible to have voltage difference in the same wire when its length is just 30-40 centimeters.
The only explanation I can find about this anomaly is related to those mysterious standing waves as Vidura noticed:
Hey Fighter and all, The effect that the light bulbs on different connected points (or different wire length) have unequal luminosity is a sign for standing waves at high frequencies. Comparable with Tesla's experience when he shorted a transmission line at one point with a thick copper bar and had at another point of the line light bulbs lit.
