Lesson 11 Multimeter Reading Flashcards
is a
measuring instrument
used to find the strength
of current flowing
around an electrical
circuit when connected
in series with the part of
the circuit being
measured.
Ammeter
is a
measuring instrument
used to find the voltage
levels around an
electrical circuit when
connected in parallel
with the part of the
circuit being measured
Voltmeter
is an instrument
for measuring electrical
resistance, which is
expressed in ohms. In the
simplest ohmmeters, the
resistance to be measured
may be connected to the
instrument in parallel or in
series.
Ohmmeter
is a handy tool
that you use to measure
electricity, just like you would
use a ruler to measure
distance, a stopwatch to
measure time, or a scale to
measure weight. It can
measure different things-
voltage, current, and resistance
