How do you measure continuity of protective conductors for ring final circuit?
A megohm meter is an insulation test instrument. If the project requires an insulation test to be done then this is what you should use. A "megger" will apply a DC voltage up to 1000 volts on the conductor to see if there is a breakdown in the insulation value.
What precaution one must take while measuring AC on DMM?
1. Digital multimeters are very high impedance, they therefore draw very little current from the circuit under test. This makes them very sensitive to stray voltages. A voltage reading may not neccessarily mean that there is a useful voltage available on the circuit under test. Take readings other than expected, with a pinch of salt. Understand the circuit under test.2. A varying, or fluctuating voltage on the circuit under test, is not easy to see from digits. The numbers may just appear to change at random, whereas with an analogue meter, a pulse or variation will be easy to see from the needle movement.
Circuit diagram of prepaid energy meter?
See the related link below. It is build by using 8051 microcontroller, you can also get the source code from there.
What does grounding a connector mean?
"Grounding a connector" means you join a connector in a circuit to another point in the circuit that is definitely at ground potential. This is done mainly when testing a circuit, to be sure that a particular point in that circuit really is at ground potential if you are not certain that it is already. Alternatively, you could be doing a test to temporarily ground a connector that is not normally at ground potential, to see what effect doing the test has on the behavior of the circuit.
How do you test a capacitor when you remove it out of circuit?
Simply test it with a multi meter. Set to DC and see if it is holding voltage. Then,...Set the meter on Ohms to check the continuity between the leads. If it shows little or no resistance, or doesnt beep, normally youre ok. If it beeps or shows resistance, its fried. Afterwards, since the voltage should have been drained by the meter on Ohms setting, see if it builds back up.
What is continuity test?
a continuity test is the checking of an electric circuit to see if current flows. That it is in fact a complete circuit.

What does a test lamp test a circuit for?
To see if there is electricity reaching that point.
How do you test the hot water heater to see if element is working properly without a tester?
With a continuity tester , found on most, but not all ,electrical test instruments(voltage meter).
How can you test a compressor to see if it has shorted?
You would need to put an amp-meter on the circuit to see what the current draw is like. ====== If the compressor is shorted to ground you cannot check the amp draw because it will constantly kill the circuit breaker. A better way to go would be to check the continuity of the compressor to ground and each winding.

If the coil is out of the lawn mower how can you test it to see if it is faulty or not?
check with meter to see resistance value (ohms)should read 3.4
Why must resistance never be measured in an active circuit?
First of all, in an active circuit, there are voltages flowing through various nodes. If you try to measure the resistor, those voltages will cause error in your meter, or may damage your meter. Second of all, even if you cut the power, any loop in the circuit around the resistor will affect the measured impedance. Unless you are certain that only the resistor will see the current introduced by the meter, you must take the resistor out of circuit to measure it.
Heater turns to a.c. when headlights are turned on?
You need to trace the hot wire to the compressor to see where circuit is crossed.
How can you test a substance to see if it is an acid or a base through pH meter?
