The image above represents ballast output voltage of circuit under strained condition. To calculate ballast output voltage of circuit under strained condition, three essential parameters are needed and these parameters are Gauge Factor (GF), Strain (ε) and Input Supply Voltage (vi).
The formula for calculating ballast output voltage of circuit under strained condition:
vo = (GF / 4) . ε vi
Where:
vo = Ballast Circuit Output Voltage
GFÂ = Gauge Factor
ε = Strain
vi = Input Supply Voltage
Let’s solve an example;
Find the ballast output voltage of the circuit when the gauge factor is 14, the strain is 12, and the input supply voltage is 10.
This implies that;
GF = Gauge Factor = 14
ε = Strain = 12
vi = Input Supply Voltage = 10
vo = (GF / 4) . ε vi
So, vo = 14 / 4 x 12 x 10
vo = 3.5 x 12 x 10
vo = 420
Therefore, the ballast output voltage of circuit is 420 V.
Calculating for Guage Factor when the Ballast Output Voltage of Circuit, the Strain and the Input Supply Voltage are Given
GF = vo x 4 / ε . vi
Where;
GFÂ = Gauge Factor
vo = Ballast Circuit Output Voltage
ε = Strain
vi = Input Supply Voltage
Let’s solve an example;
Find the gauge factor when the ballast output voltage of the circuit is 10, the strain is 15, and the input supply voltage is 18.
This implies that;

vo = Ballast Circuit Output Voltage 10
ε = Strain = 15
vi = Input Supply Voltage = 18
GF = vo x 4 / ε . vi
Then, GF = 10Â x 4 / 15 . 18
GF = 40 / 270
GF = 0.148
Therefore, the gauge factor is 0.148.
Calculating for Strain when the Ballast Output Voltage of Circuit when the Gauge Factor and the Input Supply Voltage are Given
ε = (vo x 4 / GF) / vi
Where;
ε = Strain
vo = Ballast Circuit Output Voltage
GFÂ = Gauge Factor
vi = Input Supply Voltage
Let’s solve an example;
Find the strain when the ballast output voltage of the circuit is 14, the gauge factor is 8, and the input supply voltage is 16.
This implies that;
vo = Ballast Circuit Output Voltage = 14
GF = Gauge Factor = 8
vi = Input Supply Voltage = 16
ε = (vo x 4 / GF) / vi
ε = (14 x 4 / 8) / 16
Then, ε = (56 / 8) / 16
ε = 7 / 16
ε = 0.437
Therefore, the strain is 0.437.
Calculating for Input Supply Voltage when the Ballast Output Voltage of Circuit, Gauge Factor, and Strain is Gauge
vi = (vo x 4 / GF) / ε
Where;
vi = Input Supply Voltage
vo = Ballast Circuit Output Voltage
GFÂ = Gauge Factor
ε = Strain
Let’s solve an example;
Find the input supply voltage when the ballast output voltage of the circuit is 18, the gauge factor is 10, and the strain is 7.
This implies that;
vo = Ballast Circuit Output Voltage = 18
GFÂ = Gauge Factor = 10
ε = Strain = 7
vi = (vo x 4 / GF) / ε
vi = (18Â x 4 / 10) / 7
So, vi = (72 / 10) / 7
vi = 7.2 / 7
vi = 1.0
Therefore, the input supply is 1.0.
