  • Abstract:
    This paper describes the construction of a Helmholtz coil to be used as a magnetic field generator during the calibration of magnetic field sensors. A magnetic field meter was calibrated using the coil to test its efficiency. The obtained results were then compared to the meter’s calibration sheet.
