Abstract
An air core electrical gauge incorporates on the bobbin an annular biasing magnet magnetized in a direction to return the meter pointer to zero in the absence of a gauge driving current. A method of manufacturing the gauge includes magnetizing the biasing magnet after it is secured to a bobbin portion but optionally magnetizing the guage armature at the same time.
