Yes, or a circuit with a resistance higher than the capability of the meter, which would be unusual.

How do you find out the un known resistance value?

1.Use of ohmeter. Connect the ohmeter terminals to the the ends of the unkown resistance and take the reading. Adjust the range to give a good accuracy. 2. Use of colour codes. This applies if the unknown resistance is of a resistor with visible colour codes on it.


How do you test a horn relay in a 1993 Plymouth Sundance where the relay clicks when button is pressed but horn doesn't sound?

Relays can be a pain sometimes. There are two acceptible methods for checking relays ( that you can do at home anyway) the first and easiest is to simply swap it with a known good relay of the same specs. if this is not possible then the only other way is with an ohmeter ( a quality multitester is a must have for any do it yourselfer). compare the suspect relay to it's connector there should be four wires, two thin (control circuit) and two thick (power circuit). you need to connect your ohmeter across the power circuit. and connect a jumper wire to each control circuit terminal. connect one jumper to the ground post on your vehicles battery and touch the other to the positive for no more two seconds at a time while watching your ohmeter. If the relay is working properly you should have less then one ohm showing. if the reading is high, or the tool does nothing, you've found you're problem, otherwise, start following wires and checking for voltage, or check the whole system by jumping the power circuit. check the control circuit with an ohmeter, turn the switch on with battery disconnected and key in run position and check ohms across the relays empty connector, more than 2 ohms means a short or bad connection. good luck and be careful out there eh.. PS... use a stick or something between the horn and seat to keep the switch closed while you check the control circuit ( one person can bleed brake systems with this technique).


What is the maximum insulation resistance reading on a 800A busbar?

infinite


What if you have a negative kvar reading?

A negative KVAR reading can be eliminated by adding an inductor to the circuit.


What is electricity test?

A continuity test is a simple test, used to determine whether there is a break in a circuit. This can be done, for example, using an ohmmeter which passes current through the circuit from its internal battery -a deflection (analogue meter) or a '000' reading (digital meter) indicates that there is continuity. A continuity test MUST NOT be performed on an energised circuit, as this will likely damage the ohmmeter and present a shock hazard to the user.


How do you find the proper circuit breaker for an air conditioning unit?

By reading the manual cocerning circuit amperage


What does a ampermetre do in a circuit?

Spelt: AmmeterIt measures the current flowing around the circuit. In different places in the circuit, the reading may be higher or lower.


How much current flows in a circuit with an open circuit?

None.AnswerIt depends! A capacitor is an open circuit, yet a.c. current flows quite readily. And d.c. current will flow for a very short period of time.


Reading of a odometer is a vector or scalar?

It's a scalar. It indicates distance but not direction.
