  • Notes
  • The B.121 is a mid‑1950s universal component bridge intended for laboratory and service applications. It provides wide measurement ranges for resistance, capacitance and inductance, using a single EM34 magic‑eye valve as the null indicator. The instrument supports 3‑terminal measurements and was marketed as a moderately priced precision bridge within Wayne Kerr’s expanding post‑war test‑equipment line.

    • Resistance: 3 Ω to 1,000 MΩ.
    • Capacitance: 1 pF to 1,000 mF.
    • Inductance: 100 mH to 10,000 H.
  • Net weight (2.2 lb = 1 kg)
  • 15 lb 0 oz (15 lb) / 6.810 kg
