each multimeter is different and they have a booklet that you can search up its range when measuring and the error% with each size of measurement....
for example if measuring ohms a DMM (digital multimeter) the range is 400 ohms
and the accuracy is 0.1% +5d (d= resolution... the lowest possible value you can get on that "range") then if ur measuring a 100ohm resistor itd be 100*0.001 + 0.05 if resolution is 0.01.
then you can take it one step further by getting a confidence interval as in a + - range from the original value percentage or quantitative value.

What instrument measures wind force?
The instrument to measure wind resistance is called an anemometer or wind-meter. It is a common instrument used in weather stations.
What is a durometer used to measure?
A durometer is an instrument that is used to measure hardness. Specifically, a durometer can be used to measure a material's resistance to indentation.
How do you check a resistor?
You can measure directly with an Ohm Meter, often combined with a Volt Meter. Or you can measure the voltage across the resistance and the current to calculate resistance as Current divided by Voltage.
What metric unit is used to measure the length of your classroom?
The meter.
Can 50 Hertz multi tester be used on 60 Hertz 220 volts for testing voltage?
Any of the multi testers that I have come across are not frequency sensitive. I use a Fluke process meter and it can be used to measure frequency if that scale is selected. Voltage is voltage, amperage is amperage and resistance is resistance regardless of what he frequency is.
What device is used to measure the resistance of a resistor?
You can use a multi-meter to measure resistance. The specific portion of the meter for measuring resistance is called an ohmmeter.
Why meter bridge can't be used to measure low resistance and high resistance?
used to measure low Resistance since it must reach a null.
What measures electrical resistance?
an ohm meter OR multimeter is used to measure the electrical resistance...
What equipment do you use to measure resistance?
Avo meter
When the leads of the meter are touched together a nd the meter is set to measure resistance what should the resistance reading be?
Zero ohms.
How do you measure alternating current voltage and resistance?
You measure current by inserting an amp meter in series with the circuit or using a clamp-on meter to measure current by induction. You measure voltage with a volt meter across the supply. You measure resistance in ohms across the resistance. Luckily all these functions are in the same meter in most cases.
How do you measure armature resistance practically?
by using measuring meter
What is avo meter?
avometer comes from " avo " and "meter". 'A' means amperes, to measure electrical currents. 'V' means the voltage, to measure voltage. 'O' means ohms, to measure ohms or resistance. finally the meter or unit of measure. often reffered to as AVO meter multimeter or multitester. AVO meter is a device for measuring voltage, current, both AC and DC and electrical resistance.
How to convert meter into kilogram?

Can you use ohm-meter to measure a resistance between the neutral line N and the ground E?
If the meter is sensitive enough and there is a resistance between the neutral and ground then the meter should be able to detect it.
What is the common use for a multimeter?
A multimeter is used to measure various properties of electricity. The "multi" refers to it multiple functions which can range from volt meter, current meter, resistance meter. The most common use would depend on the users preference to what is needed and measured most frequently.
How do you measure capacitance?
A capacitance meter is a piece of electronic test equipment used to measure capacitors. Depending on the sophistication of the meter, it may simply display the capacitance or it may also measure a number of other parameters such as leakage, equivalent series resistance, and inductance.
