The easiest method today is by using a clamp meter. It "clamps" around a single conductor and measures the magnetic field (you can't get a reading by clamping around a regular appliance cord, as both conductors will cancel each other out).

What are the units of measurement for current load and amperage?
The unit of measure for current load is amperage, or simply amps.
What is A measure of the number of electrons flowing through a circuit?
Amperage.
What do amps measure in a circuit?
Amperage or Amps is a measure of is the flow rate of electrical current that is available.
When is an ammeter used?
To measure amperage output to see if an alternator is charging or not .
How do you measure voltage using a ammeter?
An ammeter measures amperage not voltage.
What is the unit of measure for a galvanometer?
Electrical current stated or displayed as Amperage
How do you measure electricity and with what measurement?
With kitchen tongs. A mild tingling indicates low voltage/low amperage. Muscular spasms indicate high voltage/low amperage. Unconsciousness sans death indicates low voltage/moderate amperage. Death indicates high amperage. Good luck.
What is the Horsepower rating for starter motor?
To determine this you will have to measure the amperage the starter draws when you crank the engine. This amperage times the voltage (12 volts) will give you the wattage. There are 746 watts to 1 HP.
What does a Clamp-on ammeter measure?
An ammeter measures the amount of current flowing through an electrical circuit. It measures amperage.
How do you measure the current by using multimeter?
The current is the amperage. It is measured in series. Voltage is measured across the line (parallel).
When a volumetr is connected in series with a battery what does it measure the ability to?
Measures the amperage of the current .Your battery is in series with your car amp meter .
What Do Amps Measure?
You can measure the electrical current with an amp meter. Amperage measures the current flow.
