Put a known small resistance (maybe 1 ohm) in parallel to it. Then use the equation I=V/R (R being the known resistance, and V being the voltage readout)
So when using a 1 ohm resistor, if the voltmeter reads 2.35V, it means I=2.35/1 = 2.35 A
You cannot convert an ammeter into a voltmeter.
yes we can do it. its quite simple just change the knobs of multimeter and adjust the terminal wire too..
it can be used as a ammeter, voltmeter and also as a ohmmeter.
The ammeter is used in series, because you want to measure the current through a circuit. The voltmeter is used in parallel, because you want to measure the voltage across a circuit. If you were to place the voltmeter in series, no current would flow because of the relatively high impedance of the voltmeter. If you were to place the ammeter in parallel, you would create a short-circuit, due to the relatively low impedance of the ammeter.
how which is right and which is wrong. You need a voltage standard with that you can calibrate both to the standard
Yes, of course.
in voltmeter we have internal Resistance and connected in series , to current don't transfer in voltmeter , and we have internal resistance in ammeter and connected in parallel , to most current transfer through the ammeter.
yes it can read both ac and dc voltage and current .AnswerThe whole point of a multimeter is that it can perform the function of an ammeter, a voltmeter, and an ohmmeter!
it can be used as a ammeter, voltmeter and also as a ohmmeter.
A multimeter, also called a VOM, is an ohmmeter, ammeter, and voltmeter combined in one case. A function knob can be turned to select the type of measurement to be made, such as volts, amps, or ohms. The multimeter's test lead connections to the circuit will depend on whether you are using it as a voltmeter, an ammeter, or an ohmmeter.
A multimeter measures electrical properties such as AC or DC voltage, current, and resistance. Rather than have separate meters, a multimeter combines a voltmeter, an ammeter, and an ohmmeter. The two main kinds of a multimeter are analog and digital. A voltmeter measures the potential difference (voltage) between two points. the voltmeter only measures volts.
we can measure the resistance of the motor by using voltmeter ammeter method of by directly using a multimeter across the armature terminals of the motor in voltmeter ammeter method we should use a less value of dc voltage to find the resistance
A multimeter combines the functions of an ammeter, voltmeter, and ohmmeter and, so, can be used to measure current, voltage, and resistance by selecting the appropriate scale/setting.
The voltmeter is connected across the supply and the ammeter is connected in series with the supply.
No. Voltmeter in parallel. Ammeter in series.
voltmeter in parallel and ammeter in series of a circuit.
Ammeter is coneccted in series with circuit but Voltmeter is connected in parallel.
The ammeter is used in series, because you want to measure the current through a circuit. The voltmeter is used in parallel, because you want to measure the voltage across a circuit. If you were to place the voltmeter in series, no current would flow because of the relatively high impedance of the voltmeter. If you were to place the ammeter in parallel, you would create a short-circuit, due to the relatively low impedance of the ammeter.
An ampermeter. -- voltmeter-- ammeter-- ohmmeter-- wattmeter-- frequency counterWe can't "measure electricity" unless we figure out what we are measuring. The difference of electrical potential is measured in units called volts, and a voltmeter is used to do that. The amount of electrical current flow is measured in units called amps (amperes), and an ammeter is used to for that purpose. A multimeter combines the functions of these two meters, and will most often include some other features to measure some other electrical characteristics. An example of another measuring function of a multimeter might be its use as an ohmmeter for measuring electrical resistance.im so bored
